    Watson dropped too.

    Really? Nothing on the BBC website. Or Sky. Surprises me if true. The Aussies are panicking. Never thought I'd see the day.

    What do the BBC know eh? They take three days update sports news ;-(

    And the Aussies are panicking. I hope!

    Good toss to lose, hopefully swings round corners this morning.
    Doubt we will see Watson play test cricket again.

    Funny how some people react differently - I personally think that Blofeld is one of the problems with Cricket in this country, in as much as kids listen to his commentary and think that Cricket is for stuffed-up upperclass snobs who talk about Pigeons and Seagulls more than the Cricket - as you can probably tell, I cant stand him.

    He is pure class....ive heard him mention a seagull once when asked a question about it from Tuffers. 99.9% has been decent commentary on the cricket. Fair play though. We are all different.

    Id be interested to know how many kids listen to TMS.

    Blowers is entertaining but as blind as a bat. He cannot see anything that happens. "He's bowled him! Hasn't he?" "No Henry, thats a four through extra cover....."

    Is he a Charlton fan?

    Ali buys a wicket in his first over. Goes for 10 off the first five balls and then Warner smacks it straight up in the air.

    You silly boy ;-)

    The Aussies haven't learned an awful lot from the first test, brainless.

    I know Ponting cant read or write but FFS can someone tell him its 78-1 not 1-78.

    I wonder if that wicket will make Aussies think twice about 'targeting' Ali in this innings.

    From the BBC online coverage:
    “Incidentally, in the posh seats, there are a huge number of egg and bacon blazers, jazzer caps, loud chinos and general fashion disasters. Why is it necessary to turn up at Lord's as if a rainbow has thrown up all over you?”

    I believe the BBC have sent their Fashion Editor instead of a sports journo. Bit like their coverage of Royal Ascot. Can't afford to send both.
