I thought it was either lillie or thommo but went for thommo and was wrong

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Goddamnit England, hurry up.

Loved that.

I thought it was either lillie or thommo but went for thommo and was wrong

The giveaway was that he was record wicket-taker. Thommo got injured when he had brown hair and only came back when he had grey hair. Lillee played all the way through.

Lillee's one of the first bowlers I remember. I loved watching him bowl – total commitment to every ball. He flew through the air.

There's a simple pleasure to the marvel of physics that is the ball drifting one way then spinning the other.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Hmmm. Crowd the batsmen. Not enough catchers at the moment.

[Lo Siento.]

[ferrelhadley]

Hats off to England. Real awesome display of a good team working at every aspect of their game to make themselves great.

Fielding is often the giveaway. Teams that work hard at everything look good in the field.
This England team have an almost South African work ethic

[shagnasty]
