begins at 4:30am tomorrow.
looks as if it'll be a straight swap with harmison in for hoggard. hopefully we've adapted better to the conditions for this test and we'll see a better performance.
i shall attempt to get up 7 to catch the post-lunch sessions. i'll probably fail.

The first season is always the best, bowlers have a bit of a chance, but if they dont take wickets in that first season it just becomes a batsmans wicket and becomes a very slow and boring innings. Lets hope Vaughan wins the toss for a change and bats, I think its the only way we can win this test.

why why why why why why are we playing harmison. He'll just spread it wildly at the start and do nothing after tea on the first day. Broad would of been a much better bet because at least he moves it a little but second slips more at danger than the stumps when harmison bowls

He never got that form back. We have given him enough time. I agree it's time we looked at someone else.

He's had one good year, thats it. Now he bowls too full, or to wide. If he was constantly bowling at the batsmens ribcage it would be a different matter, but he doesn't, and is dogshit

he's always been shit abroad as well, it's a bit surprising he even gets selected.
i'd have gone with broad too.

Yup. The only decent tour he had was the Windies in 04.

You know its going to happen - Harmison will take 10 wickets in this test match and be an automatic choice for the 2008 season :shock:
