Well done to Broad..he should be in every match now....can someone tell me how you expect an opener to bat his best when hes been behind the stumps for 4 hours.....complete joke,oh and Shah is a good batsmen...at number 6 perhaps.
Well he's got the licence to go and have a bit of a swing, if it comes off great, but in theory there are plaenty of other batsmen if it doesn't. 4 hours of concentrated work....poor dear if that wears him out...how many hiurs does the tacho let you drive? |

You cant belittle the fact that having to go into bat straight after spending for hours concentrating in the searing heat will have a negative effect on your batting

Yes, you've only got to look at Adam Gilchrist to see that. |

prior's problem isn't that he has just kept, it's that he's not good enough to open in one-dayers, and never has been. he should be batting at 7/8

What a joke...bad light gets the match abandoned,4 floodlights...why cant they switch them on!
No wonder people dont get interested in cricket with this kind of thing going on.
India win on a faster scoring rate.

Agreed - this is the first match of the three we looked like we might have had a vague chance of winning. Pants. |

If Owais Shah doesn't start the Test Series and Collingwood does, I will be having serious words.

They should be on the next plane home.The suggestion that the two tests can go ahead after whats happened in Mumbai is laughable.
