Lots of tail wagging ere :angry:
If they're not going to use Broad why is he on the pitch?

They will want him fully available for the next innings I guess.

Chance the'll pass the English total!
Not something I would have considered possible about an hour ago!
Golf's not the only 'funny old Game' then!
Is this simply a case of no homework being done on the new boy?
Having Broad out there is ridiculous. Obviously injured; no point him being there; every reason for him not to b there!

The confidence of youth, looks like the Aussies have found another good'n.
As Beefy says, bet he's not no:11 next innings.

Pitch is still very good, we will bat big today when we eventually get in imo. Nothing to worry about yet :thup:

Whatever your allegiance, THIS is why we love sport. Aussies on top, then England with Australia looking like getting humiliated and suddenly the young guy crops up with the highest ever test debut score for a No. 11!
Would NEVER have said Australia would lead after this innings when the 9th wicket went down.

Fair play to the Aussies. I doubt we would of blooded an untried teenager in an Ashies match.

was an external injury (ie by the ball) so would be able to bowl at start of 2nd inns even if didnt field at all in 1st inns
one of the most bizarre sessions ive seen in a very long time, not for the first time this england side and cook looked a bit clueless when a tailender goes hard at them

Its a lovely story and really warms my heart, listening to the commentators foaming over the lad is really helping me enjoy it too :rofl:
Good job we had a good spell in the morning or we could be in serious trouble by now. Still feel we are strong favourites as it stands :thup:

Yeah I couldn't remember the exact ruling but assumed he would be restricted had he sat out the innings. Puzzled why they didn't take him off or bowl him earlier if that's the case!
We do love to give people a chance, its the English way

expect they didnt actually want to bowl him, thought he could do no more harm by fielding, but then had to use him as a last resort. Englands approach of immediately resorting to the short ball to tail enders really does need stopping (especially on really slow decks like this one)

I agree Birchy. With the sun on their backs our batsmen should make hay this afternoon.

Yeah they did bowl a bit dumb at times. Too complacent when the 9th wicket went down.
If we don't win this test we have only got ourselves to blame really.

Phil Hughes and Ashton Agar have broken the record for the highest 10th wicket partnership in Test history!!!
Anyone remembers how much did our last 4 boys put together?
