Trott gets a hundred and kisses the badge on his helmet. Graeme Smith's going to be a lovely shade of crimson in the winter tour

Hmmm, this pitch is taking a lot of spin. Obviously Swann's going to be twirling away for a while, but with Vaughan retired and Pietersen injured, do we have anyone who bowls part time filth? What does Trott bowl?

They're all medium pace Nemo. As i said earlier in the thread we should have played 2 spinners. Still we just need to be patient and the wickets will eventually come.

Exactly - nobody has ever chased more than 418 to win a test in the history of cricket, and there's no way the Aussies should be able bat out two days on this pitch no matter who is in our attack. If we are to lose this test now, it will simply be through bad bowling.

They just interviewed an English fella on Sky Sports wearing a Pox shirt. Enough to put anyone off their breakfast!!

Should win this now but the Aussies won't go down without a fight.
