Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

yaar, maar lo jitnaa maarna hai, out to honaa hee hay naa :whistling:

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

What do you guys suggest for England batsmen now?

play defensive and see through the new ball- may let Aussie fasties on top and lose more wickets

OR
up the ante and play attacking cricket and challenge the aussies line and length?

This is the defining moment of this match... the team that comes on top now will remain on top

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Eng 18-3, McGrath

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Vaughan gone. Mcgrath on fire.

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Allright now its up to the bowlers to the job AGAIN.

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Well Pieterson is in lets see what plan they have otherwise I would stick with your first option.

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Yes they should try to upset the line and length but there is a fine balance between aggression and stupid attacks. This is what aussies did today and it backfired. Some of them attempted unnecessary strokes. But that is their style and they know one way to play.

England need to see off Mcgrath and Lee. Gillespie is not in his best bowling form and they can attack him.

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

England 18/3 (12.2 ov), whata reply by Aussies !

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Stupid English batsmen should hit the ball instead of giving their wickets away for free...hmmmmmm

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Re: Ashes 1st Test - Lords

Okay this wicket is turning out to be a substandard one. Did you people see the ball that got Flintoff? Very uneven bounce.

Credit to Mcgrath though. Awesome performance
