Silly premeditated sweep from miles outside the off-stump. Looks like he is in decent form though, which is good for England.
KP is always in good form (providing he gets into double figures) but is now making it a habbit of getting himself out to silly shots.

Here in Australia they don't reckon he will ever be one of the all time great players simply because he doesn't put a price on his wicket.

Just needs to cut the shit out of his test match! That was a ridiculous shot yesterday.

Hopefully we will see Ponting this afternoon, first few balls inswinger Ponting plays all around it and plum LBW, Ponting does what he does best!

Nice one. I'm listening on the BBC in China. Looks like we might get to 400 and at a pace too. The tail sounds very positive. Mind you after Swann and Anderson we are down to Monty (Panesar not Lynch, probably the second is a better batsman)

I'm sat here at work watching Ben Dirs (lack of) commentry on bbc, not fun, but seeing the score update is.

Bastards, feel like I have been robbed 15 points for Swann only getting to 47 instead of 50. Still he doesn't get the -10 for being out.

Great scoring for England to put on another 100 and get to 435 with the tail enders playing aggressively.

Good morning session for my team as well I think :razz:

I only just realised I had Katich in my team. I was hoping all day he would get out early so Hussey could get in early and score some runs. :lol:

Somehow managed to maintain second place despite having Broad as my TP! Bad day for all the Monty's though...

Is it too late to join, been so busy? The Aussies being the Aussies today and Ponting being Ponting, though he didn't look perfect we could have got him out on his old sweep slog attempt. If Freddie and Anderson can get the ball to move and Broad can bowl some more, we may bowl a few over tomorrow but before that we really need to sort out the length- too many short balls and some awful full tossers which are just gimmes.

Given the way the game is going, the Aussies' bowling attack and the weather forecast this will probably be a draw but I think we missed an opportunity after lunch and now won't win the game in all probability.

You'll be a few points behind everyone else if you join now but the fantasy league covers the Ashes, the one day series and the T20's, so if you pick wisely you'll have no problem catching up! I don't know if you'll get any points for this test though - best to try picking a team and see what happens...
