Point being, why was the bowler on that side of the track?

 

You're right though. It was a fantastic throw.

 

Fair comment, Pollock did run across him. He just didn't appear to be aware of where the runner was. If it was conscious, he was pretty clever about it.

 

Starting to get a few runs going here.

[Spy Bee]

Its hard to tell whether it was deliberate though Adam, it would have been a real brave decision to rule that not out.

 

I mean, if he meant to obstruct him then it was wrong. I haven't seen the footage though.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Looked to me like Pollock was getting himself behind the stumps to receive the throw and try a stumping. Kev should have run to his right and round Pollock, but he ran to his left down the middle of the pitch.

 

Thats how it looked to me aswell Weeksie. Wrong choice by Pietersen, basically because he was ambling and not concentrating on what was happening, once he realised he made the wrong choice and Pollock was in his way trying to get to the stumps.

Its all academic anyway as we're not going to get anywhere near the target.

[Spy Bee]

Its all academic anyway as we're not going to get anywhere near the target.

hehe I do that too.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Our batsmen just don't have the technique to innovate against good bowling....if the bowling is pie throwing shite thats asking to be hit, we've got a chance...their bowling has been tight and on the money so far.

[Special K]

We still seem to be playing like it's a test. A quick single here and there.

 

Death or glory, start swinging the willow and get a few boundaries.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Thats a start from Shah right there...another 10 of those needed

[Spy Bee]

Like that?

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Prior gone...maybe it was better he went than Shah who can get things finished at the business end....this is set up for a Freddie special.

Whats the betting he skies one about second ball for 0.

[Son of L8]

Nice pair of sixes from Shah. Time to start swinging it lads.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Chuff me, nearly first ball

[Son of L8]

Stream's on a slight delay, just saw the wicket. Defo better Prior gone than Shah though.

[Special K]

Freddy's getting his eye in....

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

We are right up with where SA were at this stage. That over from Schofield that ended up in the river 3 times might be the difference.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Flintoff dropped....maybe its going to be our night after all....Poetic justice as the jockey who dropped it was the one who hoyed it all over the show after he was dropped

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Aaaaah bollocks, thats Shah gone and thats a vital wicket, he needed to be there at the end with Flintoff and the other hitting around him.

[Special K]

Shah gone, that was a cert.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Snape needs to rotate the strike until he gets in, nurdle it around and get Freddie swiping it.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

12 an over needed for the last 4 overs.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

hehe I do that too.

 

You mean expect to be disappointed and anything else is a bonus? I find it works well....

[Spy Bee]

12 an over needed for the last 4 overs.

 

So twelve off this over and them Mascheranas can finish the game in the next over.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

He should have been in before Snape, who is just a nudger and a nurdler.

That last over has just cost it us I'd say....only 5 off it.

[Guest PaddyBerger15]

Snape has gone after a scoring as much as George Michael in a Nunnery....we need about 400 an over now

[Big Ig]

36 from 11 balls, Mascherenas just hit his first 4

[Son of L8]

Snape was absolutely the wrong man to come in when he did. A bit baffling.
