We could have done with that being Trott.

 

[steveo]

cracking knock we needed him to play them shots so fair do

 

[Psycho Ned]

Still we've got Bell who is in the form of his life coming in now so no one better to see this home.

Another couple of wickets and I'd call it a day and play out for a draw.

 

[Pighardia]

Still think Trott OR Bell plus a slogger(Prior/Swann/Woakes?) is better than Trott + Bell tbh.

We'll still do it though, so it doesn't really matter anyway

 

[Pighardia]

Oh dear....

Trott out for 59.

Step up once again Mr Bell

 

[Cosimo]

Trott gone, still in there.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Surprised they've brought Woakes in here, I'd have had Prior tbh he's a shot maker.

 

[steveo]

ohh jeez come on woakes dont let us down

 

[Pighardia]

Surprised they've brought Woakes in here, I'd have had Prior tbh he's shot maker.

I agree, Prior or Swann in next for me

 

[LOAM]

Lol Shane Warne

 

[Pighardia]

I'm due at work in 1/2 hour. Just phoned them and told them I would be late!

 

[Cosimo]

36 from 36 balls!

100% Warranted

 

[Psycho Ned]

Surely this isn't going to be classic cricket shooting itself in the foot and going off for bad light.

Game is setup for a classic finish.

 

[Cosimo]

My wife is a Londoner and asks where is the Oval.

 

[Rich_L]

Bowling down the leg-side, so negative

 

[LOAM]

Australia desperate now.

 

[mmj_uk]

It would be very fitting if Bell was to knock the winning run.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Australia desperate now.

Getting slower and slower at bowling each ball as well.

They're definitely after bad light.

Haha WTF the international rights thing just kicked in on 5 Live, must be time-related instead of event - that's almost an international incident right there
