The Ashes 2009

[Cerberus]

Much better from Johnson.

 

[Nemo]

Much better from Johnson.

Indeed. Do you think he came by ship and has just arrived?

 

[Nemo]

56-1 at tea. I'd call the session roughly even.

 

[Cerberus]

Indeed. Do you think he came by ship and has just arrived?

Thought I'd wait an over before replying..

and it seems as if his ship may have some way to go yet.....

 

[Nemo]

Only eight needed to avoid the follow-on.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Very happy with that solid ending to the session.

 

[tangerinedream]

Aussie bowling looks a lot better here.

Without looking at the scorecard, I think that was a session without an extra wasn't it?

 

[Nemo]

Without looking at the scorecard, I think that was a session without an extra wasn't it?

I think so.

E2A: actually, I think there were some byes in the Aussie innings. No runs for Mr Extras so far in England's innings.

I think the umps were just feeling sorry for Mitch.

 

[Nemo]

Sky interviewing Mr Turnip now.

 

[Nemo]

The crowd are certainly getting their money's worth.

 

[Nemo]

Bopara drags it on.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

60-2 commentator jinxed it

 

[mattie]

Not having a good time of it, that lad.

Where's Bell in the order?

 

[Cerberus]

Bollocks...

Those listening to Sky - did you hear Athers bok him? FFS

 

[Nemo]

And now it's the Sherminator.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

have we avoided the follow on yet?

 

[Cerberus]

Not confident....

 

[mattie]

I am. It'll be OK.


Colly will fix it.

 

[Cerberus]

of Bell that is...not the follow on - which has been avoided

 

[Nemo]

have we avoided the follow on yet?

Not yet. And the fucker's just started swinging too.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

of Bell that is...not the follow on - which has been avoided

phew, was getting tense there for a second

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Not yet. And the fucker's just started swinging too.

 

[Nemo]

And spinning.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

 

[Nemo]

Mr Extras now off the mark.

 

[Nemo]

One more to avoid the follow-on.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Really hope bell steps up to the challenge.

 

[Nemo]

Really hope bell steps up to the challenge.

So do I. History isn't very encouraging though.

 

[SpookyFrank]

Mr Extras now off the mark.

Ah, our trusty 12th man is back in form I see
