How can he be dropped if he was never in the test side? :bird:

One time wonder:whatever:

Good first day for England.

A good second day and this one will be sewn up

[Red Chilli]

Popular thread this.

anyway, a finely poised Test match. The rain came just at the right time for England with wickets falling like dominoes

Murali ties Warne's world record.

England trail by 2 runs with 4 first innings wickets remaining.

If we get a 50 lead I'll be well chuffed.

Anderson is crap, why he is in over Broad, especially when there was grass on the pitch and people were saying shame Harmison couldn't play.

Watched an hour of this this morning – woeful bowling, although Sanga is in imperious form.

From the BBC:

Bowler O M R W
Hoggard 18.0 5 55 2
Sidebottom 25.0 5 65 0
Panesar 45.0 5 132 3
Anderson 23.0 4 128 1
Bopara 8.0 3 16 0
Vaughan 3.0 0 6 0
Collingwood 8.0 0 25 2

Proves my point

1 poor innings makes him crap then?

Oh come on, even you know it is not exactly a one off.

Thought he was probably your best pace bowler in the summer.

[Colemere]

Thought he was probably your best pace bowler in the summer.

He is wank, remember he only got a chance back in 2003 because of injuries to Harmison, (who has been crap recently), Hoggard, Flintoff and co.
Even James Kirtley got an England call and Martin Bicknell was back after 10 years.

He is greatly overrated and should go back to Burnley 2XI

Broad for England, especially on a pitch that had grass on it, work that one out, 6'7" and not in the final squad
