We need to step it up a gear again, not let those decisions get to us, doesn't seem like happening yet.

And GBH now.

And goes for four. Not a great ball, not the best shot.

Raining here North of the river. Let's hope it doesn't go down South.

 

[baldrick]

Slight chance of storms/rain predicted for today btw.

If they come, let's hope for a cloud burst so the pitch turns into a real dog.

 

[Nemo]

What a delivery from Swann - speed, turn, bounce. Everything apart from a wicket.

 

[Nemo]

England really need a wicket before lunch.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

We just need abit of luck here.

 

[baldrick]

yup.

we need to be patient though.

 

[marty21]

raining in NW6, might hit the oval in a bit

Yep. Sooner or later an edge will come (or they'll finally get an lb decision).

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Clouds getting slightly darker slowly here...

 

[baldrick]

(or they'll finally get an lb decision).

don't hold your breath!

 

[Nemo]

Drizzling at the Oval now.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

And they're off for rain, at lunch.

 

[Nemo]

And they're off as the rain gets heavier.

 

[baldrick]

Let us know how that works out for you.

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Wow those clouds are really dark atm.

The storm's been and passed Brixton just a minute or two back, so the Oval should be clear shortly. There's a fair bit of blue amongst the grey.

Typically ignorant comment. This is the player who was player of the tournament in the inaugrual IPL. He's also averaging 50 odd I think in this series. Hardly lacking in hand-eye co-ordination.

I'd put that mantle on England's middle order myself..
