AberdeenBud Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Think it was mentioned the record chase at Trent Bridge is something around 280, so another record will have to be broken. Can't see it myself unless Clarke scores 100+. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlandmagyar Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Game on. England out quicker than I thought they would be. Still England's to lose. Time for Watson and Clarke to hit a good innings.Lose an early wicket, then England ,IMO, will rip them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Perfect time to have a bowl... a nasty little 20 minute slot before lunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I think they're going to do it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 (edited) Think it was mentioned the record chase at Trent Bridge is something around 280, so another record will have to be broken. Can't see it myself unless Clarke scores 100+. That's a pretty meaningless stat though. It was New Zealand and they were 280-6 IIRC, pretty sure they could have got 311 had they kept going.

Lex Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Huge period before lunch here, Aussies can't afford to lose an early wicket. Watson and Rogers need to get blocking and play defensively. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 5/2 the Aussies with Paddy Power. That looks really poor value. Do we know yet if Agar is batting at 3 or 4? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solid start from the Aussies, Watson looking good. He needs a big innings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlandmagyar Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 These 2 need at least 100 to have any chance to hit that target. 28-0 at Lunch. Decent start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Absolutely perfect start to the innings from Australia, some fantastic boundaries and no wickets lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjc Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Absolutely perfect start to the innings from Australia, some fantastic boundaries and no wickets lost. Early days....once the new ball softens Swann will spin his magic! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Couple of alarms, but they have done really well to get to lunch wicketless. Those small sessions are usually guaranteed to get one or two nipped out. Long long way to go til they reach their target though. Need to be 150 for 3 at worst halfway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Hoover Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Is it just me or does Shane Watson look awfy like Artur Boruc? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 This opening partnership between Rogers and Watson is in danger of making Australia slight favourites. With Australia 59-0, I'd say the match is in the balance. England need to get at least a couple of wickets before Australia reach 100.

Lex Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Another fantastic shot from Watson. Swan is really struggling to get his spin going, Aussies looking very good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellboy1991 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 3 or 4 of those calls not given this morning by the Umpire. Tight call in England's favour. Poor umpiring IMO again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlandmagyar Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I think it WAS out. Initially I thought just missed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
