Apparently broad is in because he can bat too.


Although to be honest Harmison also has the ability to survive 40 something deliveries for a handful of runs (as this was the most significant contribution broad made last time) in a desperate attempt to force a draw when the real batters all failed miserably.


Edit: In accordance with the prophecy.

Think I'd have to go with Broad over Harmy. Ok, Harmison's got a bit of form going, but I have zero confidence he can carry that into a test. An ashes test. As well as the top order staying in, think I'd also like to see some teeth in the bowling - I'd say Anderson needs to do something this match!

lol! Yes, he could, but I still don't think he would. Though I have to admit I can't think of any other pace bowlers. I imagine he'll be in the squad for the next test if we continue to bowl with like we did in Cardiff. But I?d ditch Anderson.


Keet ? who?d you have instead of Cook?

a class act. I''ve no idea, when did he stopped playing? I doubt there's been anyone since then. There really should be more facial hair in cricket. Surely it's part of the games heritage, can't the selctors enforce it? Even if that's just a rule for wicket keepers.


Agree with you on Cook. But that sums up how I feel about Broad too.

Not a bad morning session - Cook with a 50, no wickets and all Australian bowlers looking average at best. Not too many chances given by either Strauss or Cook - both seemed to remember, when tempted, that their task was:


a. To get to lunch without losing their wicket


b. To grind down the bowling


c. To get in and stay in.


Here's hoping the weather tomorrow allows a good day's play and that my wallet can stand the Lord's beer prices.

    • I recently hired Andy to paint the newly plastered walls in my front room, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the start, he offered a fair and reasonable price for the work, and his professionalism really stood out. Andy has a wealth of experience and was happy to share suggestions about colour choices and paint types, which made the decision-making process much easier. He completed the work within the agreed timescale, and I am very happy with the finish.  What impressed me most is that Andy went above and beyond what I initially asked. He not only painted the room beautifully but also helped with extra tasks such as putting up the wall bracket, curtain poles, and curtains, and even gave me a hand moving furniture between rooms. That level of support is rare and very much appreciated. If you’re looking for a painter and decorator who is reliable, trustworthy, reasonably priced, experienced, and willing to go the extra mile to help, I would highly recommend Andy.
    • John recently skimmed the walls in our front room lounge, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.   He arrived on time each day and kept me updated on progress, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The quality of his plastering is smooth, even, and ready to paint with minimal prep. He takes real pride in his work.   John was also very tidy, laying down protective sheets and cleaning up thoroughly after the job was done. It’s clear he respects his clients’ homes, which I really appreciated.   On top of that, he’s friendly, approachable, and trustworthy someone you feel comfortable having in your home. His pricing was fair and transparent, with no unexpected costs.   Highly recommended if you're looking for a skilled and reliable plasterer. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future work.
