Re: Cricket
Not a bad fight back by the looks of things. A pity Hughes couldn't get some runs on debut. North looks to be holding his own though.

Re: Cricket
Be interested to see what Geoff Lawson and Imran Khan say about this.

Re: Cricket
Very sad news. Not only for the players but for cricket in Pakistan. It was something which united the country. Other than making international cricket / sport a non-event in Pakistan, I can't really see a reason for it.

Re: Cricket
Hmm, the test is into its second day after Aus scored 304 on the 1st day, there has been 9 wickets fall this morning over there, plus Smith is off retired hurt again. Looks like I might have to rethink my opinion of M. Johnson.

he was getting sledged something shocking at the start of the 1st innings. Apparently they have gone quiet since.

Re: Cricket
One thing I've noticed in the very brief amounts I've seen (mainly the wickets) is that the Aussie bowlers finally seem to be swinging the ball.
This is something that really wasn't happening in Australia over the summer.
Am I correct in this?

Re: Cricket
Re swinging the ball, thats correct.
Johnson seems to have found his inswinger again, and Hilfy always swings the ball.
That said, I think its harder to swing the ball in Australia due to climatic conditions.
Looking good for England..

Re: Cricket
Add to the conditions the Dukes ball and if Johnson can keep swinging it and Shizenhausen goes away, they could be a potent pair. Alderman anyone?

Re: Cricket
Johnson cracks a 6 for his 1st test ton. Off 86 balls no less!
Shame they are going to get smacked by an innings! 1st time in 11 years.
