Well, I said who's the worst team or can we get an individual performance?
Perhaps the first part is still undecided (mind you I am unconvinced by England! ) or perhaps Root or Malan will produce that special performance??
So, shall I stay up tonight and watch or go to night nights and dream a good 4th day??
Decisions, decisions........
This is why I love test cricket, there's always a twist!
I'm not staying up for this one, I just don't think we have it in us to bat long enough.
Aussies are fragile though, so it really does emphasise your "who's the worst" point!
I shall try to keep my mind clear of negative thoughts Ramshank!
Perhaps GP's dream will turn out to be a phenomenonally accurate forecast??
Them blooming pigs are still out there doing their low flying tricks!
Whoops, there goes another one!
3 gone for eleven runs!
Blimey, is there owt in the sporting world to cheer us up!
Is this the worst set of England 'batters' of all time??
Technique, what technique??!!
Once again we gullibly thought 'perhaps what if'!
Dog poo, all of them.
It's the hope that kills you!!
Yep, it's back to the simple explanation - tossers, just tossers!
On the bright side I realised there was no hope after the thirdwicket fell and got myself a good nights sleep!Quote:

Good decision...did you have the same dream as GP?Quote:

Basically, a bunch of Jodrells then ;)Quote:

My objective when first at the crease was to establish my off peg, one of my teachers allowed us 3 balls to do that saying that it switched on your concentration to set a timeline. After that flashing outside the line was met by a loud scream 'concentration boy concentration' the first essential of technique!
It's a fault in technique aggravated by the short game!
