Title: Fourth Test Post by: larwood on Friday, June 15, 2007, 08:22:48 At Durham,weather forecast is a bit of a shocker though.
Oh well at least Hoggy should be back in the side :dance: :bow1: :\/ Title: Fourth Test Post by: mattboyslim on Friday, June 15, 2007, 08:24:35 Be nice to wrap up a 3-0 but the forecast looks shocking, important toss to win I suspect - sounds like the ball is gonna swing a bit.

Title: Fourth Test Post by: Bogus Dave on Friday, June 15, 2007, 12:10:14 Nice to see the schoefield report is already making major changes to english cricket. It hasn't re-structured the grass-roots policy of the game, or hasn't as yet addressed the issue of the number of foreign players in county cricket.
BUT, it has re-named the england "a" team the "England Lions". We're gonna be world beaters now :-))( Title: Fourth Test Post by: sonic youth on Friday, June 15, 2007, 12:42:48 play's been abandoned for today in case you haven't noticed!
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Friday, June 15, 2007, 15:15:55 well at least the rain will save us from defeat...

Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 09:49:14 Start Delayed by Rain.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Spud on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 11:54:40 That's what you get if you play Ooop North, fucking Cavemen the lot of em'.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 12:33:35 Play will start at 2.00. England won the toss and will bowl.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Bennett on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 13:01:14 i wish i had sky :cry:
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 13:02:34 So do i Andy. 0-1. Ganga out first ball.

Title: Fourth Test Post by: Summerof69 on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 13:42:07 WI 34-3 :)
Title: Fourth Test Post by: lebowski on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 13:48:10 get one more and we're into the tail!
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 14:11:32 Great start, Glad we got Gayle out, he was scoring at a quick rate. Chanderpaul is the only man that can save them. Get him out and the rest will soon fall.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 14:25:38 :shock: England in taking wickets shock. looks like the bowlers have finally got their act together then. now it's time for a batting collapse :-))(
Title: Fourth Test Post by: sonic youth on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 14:25:58 shut up rich.

We're playing the West Indies not Australia. Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Saturday, June 16, 2007, 15:27:00 exactly. we should be demolishing them...
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 14:18:57 i love the N Power girls. :D
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 15:52:05 287 all out. Chanderpaul seems to be holding the Windies together at the moment. without him they would be getting 150. 23-0 in reply. let's hope Strauss does something decent for once
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 17:09:05 well he is on 50 so he is proving me wrong at last
Title: Fourth Test Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 18:07:46 Good to see Strauss doing well, he's had a rough patch recently but is a decent batsman.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 20:20:58 Quote from: "reeves4england" Good to see Strauss doing well, he's had a rough patch recently but is a decent batsman. Yeah im happy for Strauss. Just what he needed. KP was a bit silly at the end. This has draw written all over it. Title: Fourth Test Post by: sonic youth on Sunday, June 17, 2007, 21:12:44 what the fuck was kp doing? last ball of the day and he winds up for a massive shot, totally unneccesary
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, June 18, 2007, 14:56:48 well thanks to Colly and Prior we are back in the driving seat. superb knock from Colly!
Title: Fourth Test Post by: larwood on Monday, June 18, 2007, 14:58:55 Thankfully its now 341-7 at tea,it was a bit dodgy for a time,and quite frankly i was worried for you Rich :wink:

Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 08:50:41 Quote from: "Give_us_an_S" I think Chanderpaul may just hold and save them losing this match. he has not been dismissed for around 13 hours. So yes he will probably save the match for them. Title: Fourth Test Post by: STFC Village on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 08:53:55 Someone's got to stay with him though. By the looks of the shots Gayle was playing last night, he won't be around long this morning, so i think alot will depend on how long Dwaaaaaaaayyyyyyyne stays at the crease
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 10:09:27 Quote from: "STFC Village" Someone's got to stay with him though. By the looks of the shots Gayle was playing last night, he won't be around long this morning, so i think alot will depend on how long Dwaaaaaaaayyyyyyyne stays at the crease Yes agreed. And the weather as well. Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 10:28:05 play will start in 3 mins. Also Harmy has a hernia problem and will have a operation in the next couple of weeks.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 11:09:43 Gayle has gone. Cant see us getting Shiv out, so our only chance is to get the others out and hope its a very small total to chase.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: mattboyslim on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 11:15:29 The weather is a huge issue, if we can get them out by not long after tea with the extra time due I can see them going for it - even in darkness. Another wicket before lunch would put us in with a good chance, thus far their tail has looked very average.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 13:04:58 boycott is a whinging old twat, he's spent most of this afternoon moaning about his lunch and talking about his cancer
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 13:16:32 Wahey a wicket
Title: Fourth Test Post by: mattboyslim on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 13:50:36 C'mon England Sir Monty of Panaesar is on fire by the looks of it. There for the taking now.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Foggy on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 13:59:38 Another one down ! 188-8
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Scot Munroe on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 14:01:35 Chanderpaul has not been dismissed for over 1,000 mins.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 14:19:57 Powells wicket was fucking excellent! A carbon copy of the 1st innings.
Title: Fourth Test Post by: redbullzeye on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 14:40:40 Quote from: "Scot Munroe" Chanderpaul has not been dismissed for over 1,000 mins. Monty's got him at long last. Only 110 to win Title: Fourth Test Post by: Give us an S on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 14:41:53 Quote from: "redbullzeye" Quote from: "Scot Munroe" Chanderpaul has not been dismissed for over 1,000 mins. Monty's got him at long last. Only 110 to win Gotta feel sorry for Chanderpaul. The other 10 have really let him down. Should be game over and good night now. Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 15:08:34 we should win this now!
Title: Fourth Test Post by: reeves4england on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 19:52:25 *cue England win*
Good to see, espcailly after the weather stopped so much of the play. Now we can look forward to seeing this side against a stronger team in the summer with a bit of confidence, be it reasonable or misplaced!!! Title: Fourth Test Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 20:11:57 Vaughan looked in good nick this afternoon. 48 off 51 I think.
Monty got man of the match and man of the series. 23 wickets in the 4 tests. A lot of people saying he's the best left arm spinner in the world. Title: Fourth Test Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 20:15:35 he is

Title: Fourth Test Post by: sonic youth on Tuesday, June 19, 2007, 22:16:28 considering there's probably only half a dozen left arm spinners playing test cricket and half of them probably play for bangladesh, that isn't something quite that spectacular
Title: Fourth Test Post by: larwood on Wednesday, June 20, 2007, 12:03:51 Monty has broken into the top ten of the ICC rankings,he's joint sixth with Hoggy.
Looking forward to the Indian tests,less than a month away now :D Title: Fourth Test Post by: reeves4england on Wednesday, June 20, 2007, 13:16:42 Quote from: "larwood" Monty has broken into the top ten of the ICC rankings,he's joint sixth with Hoggy.

India's bowlers cannot bowl in English conditions. they always struggle when they tour here. the only thing that will count in their favour are pitches that will turn and are good for batting. but seaming conditions are no use for them Title: Fourth Test Post by: larwood on Wednesday, June 20, 2007, 17:35:22 Quote from: "Rich" Quote from: "reeves4england" Quote from: "larwood" Monty has broken into the top ten of the ICC rankings,he's joint sixth with Hoggy.
