So perfect day for a spot of Cricket, one up in the series - confidence sky high.

KP under a cloud - who knows what Englands Leading Batsman is thinking of his employers today ? Luckily he bats for his stats not his bosses - so I think he will be fired up.

Bresnan or Finn - that is the question, for me I would have Finn, Bresnan is the past - Finn has what 53 wickets in 12 tests ?
The future is now, pick Finn.
So would I but they've gone with Bresnan...he's a man that has done nothing wrong though. Bowls very dry but perhaps lacked penetration at Lords.

Part of me says silly boy... but then I do agree with him.

Git. biggrin

Don't have ability to get sky here, so am relying on streaming. Missed the 1st wicket - hopefully catch a replay soon smile

Broad and Jimmy really are becomming a serious double act arent they?

Statham and Tyson
Lock and Laker
Thompson and Lillee
Warne and Mcgrath
Anderson and Broad

I was just about to post that Broad is rapidly turning into a world class bowler.

Better do it then. wink


Interesting article in The Times last week (or was it the Telegraph?) that they had been working on his temper. He's learning to control it and use the agression, and his team mates are being taught how to spot it.
