    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    To me, it is as simple as Australian batsmen not getting enough runs. Really that simple! They are not good enough and, I guess, not even performing to their abilities.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    Since I had been wondering the same, though not in your rant-like style, but just out of curiosity, I've tried to find it out a couple of days back. I didn't get any further than: "The Universal etymological English dictionary of 1749 gives the town as "Chester upon Street" (and describes it as...

    How many real chances did the both of them miss this series?

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    Haddin right. But obviously? Well, he's having a better series (with the bat) than Prior, but he hasn't exactly been top. If we rate both keepers by glove work alone, what's the verdict then?

    Nah, was a really crap throw by thta fielder.

    I agree with those who think the poor climate in North East England is caused by a lack of private schools.

    He can bat. Uh, I mean, he is available to bat :) .

    Makes me look bad, huh?

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    My two year old grandson appears to have a decent cricket brain too, when put in a box with Beefy.

    Was thinking the same. I guess he's not the type of person to say anything possibly negative on live TV.

    And consequently dropped......

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    It's my opinion that this pitch is still a good one to bat on. Could be a very interesting 4th innings.

    It's really good batting by Bresnan!

    Impressed by Bresnan here. Smacks the ball out of the park against the changed momentum.

    If only the Aussies can swing the new ball right through the England tail, we are really in for a very very good day of Test Cricket! Oh, got him first ball!

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    Though I do think Clarke has not managed the reviews well this series, one has to wonder what he did wrong here. Not only the bowler, but also the keeper advised him to review.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    You just know that in a few overs time Broad will come in, will nick it behind, but won't be given..... And Australia have no reviews left.

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    I agree. I won't say he is very good (yet), but he really deserves a few more opportunities. Anyway..... Based on what do people think Root will make more runs at 6 than as an opener?
  19. Stapel

    *Official* Fourth Test at Chester-le-Street

    I agree! Though there have also been quite some good reviews that wouldn't bring a change.

    Well, another rather stupid appeal by Clarke & co.....
