Title: Third test Post by: larwood on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 10:54:35 Starts tomorrow at Headingley,i expect lots of those annoying fucking horns going off :x
After my stunning predicition for the last test :wink: i think we'll draw this one.Not sure if Akhtar is back yet,i thought he was supposed to make a return for this game? Title: Third test Post by: sonic youth on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 11:33:58 pitch is going to be very different for this game i'd have thought, not as fast, not as much bounce so it'll be interesting to see if the wickets come as easily this time round. i'm sure pakistan will up their game as well...
Title: Third test Post by: cib on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 11:38:56 Akhtar isn't playing in this test, hes scheduled to play for Berkswell in Birmingham League on Saturday, who have Dom Ostler playing for them as captain. Not that fond of them though, bunch of tossers
Title: Third test Post by: Northern Red on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 12:28:54 I thought this started today :( I was all ready for it.
Why it's not Thursday to Monday as normal? Title: Third test Post by: Foggy on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 12:44:42 I think its because its a back to back test and they didnt take into account that the second test finished in three days
Title: Third test Post by: fatbury on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 16:00:48 Headingley is NEVER a draw ... I expect Pakistan to come back strong .. and level it .. hope not but thats what my head tells me
Title: Third test Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, August 3, 2006, 19:07:03 You never quite know what you'll get at Headingley, if a Test at all, traditionally, its been a seamers paradise, so England have won games with the likes of Steve Watkin and Neil Mallendar getting wickets.....in which case Jon Lewis should start.

What do you think? reg you've taken that straight out of ian botham's mouth. if hoggy is carrying a niggle then yeah i agree but if he isn't then you can't change it particularly as hoggy isn't really going to get burnt out cos he doesn't play odis. broad will be a fucking gun though - his run up and action are superb |
