  • Just watched highlights - i love Matty Prior - such a breath of fresh air, always plays for the team and not for himself.
    I was at Lords last year v India where he played a magnificent century when England were in a spot of trouble . Becoming a great player in the Gilchrist mould.

    Prior is a Test batsman. He should bat 6 to allow us to play 5 bowlers. England are obsessed with their tail.
  • don't play with the 3 lions tail

    You'll find most Test teams only field 4 bowlers now. They all did their analysis and found that half the time yoiu werent bowling all day, and when you did, you would only need 5/6 overs from the fifth bowler - thats why most have dropped it - the only obvious exception is South Africa who have Kallis as their fifth bowler simply because he gets into team on his batting alone.

    I fail to see why Prior isnt in the ODI team - vastly better than Kieswetter (before he was dropped)
  • Prior has a terrible ODI record over a long period of time, sadly

    in the early part of his career yes, - but hasnt been in the team since Kwetter came onto the scene.
    Then again, i think that Buttler is going to be a special player.
  • Williamson c and b Broad - now got 3 wickets nz 87-4
  • edited March 2013
    NZ 85- 4 now. Williamson Very smartly c&b by Broad for 42.

  • love the countdown theme.
  • OUT! Brownie LBW Anderson 18.

    Kiwis in trouble now at 89/5
  • Countdown theme very funny. Come on England!
  • Only 6 more wickets for Jimmy to join the very elite 300 club !
  • BJ Watling batting - what unfortunate initials !
  • Broad overtakes ARC Fraser to go 17th on the England wicket taking list with 178.
  • Only 6 more wickets for Jimmy to join the very elite 300 club !

    Not as elite as it used to be. Only had one member in the first 70 odd years of Test Cricket and now has about 25.
    Deadly should have got in there, trouble was he kept getting himself banned!

  • I wonder if anyone else will ever join the 100/100 club? I very much doubt it.
  • Some interesting songs being sung - Postman Pat theme sounded like a solo performance and the ladies were singing to Chirpy Chirpy Cheap Cheap. Anyone no what the revamped lyrics are?
