Its dull as hell, and once Pointing gets his eye, which he clearly has we are doomed!! I will blame Pieterson for his giving his wicket away so cheaply, I don't know where he thought he was?!

Katich 100
Ponting 100B*stard, I fear they will make our score without much more loss of wicket!!
- very ordinary bowling from england, sorry to say....hans_glib
- Agree, looking too much toward Flintoff, Anderson has stuggled to get much swing, and Broad, didn't he have to have treatment?uncle_helv

Day 3: Discuss....
Well done to the two aussies whose concentrated accumulation of runs gave. Both have points to prove. Looking down the Aus order, they all have points to prove. Hussey wants to score big, 'pup' hasn't scored a tonne on English soil.
Anyone got Odds for Flintoff boozing his way out of the side again?

Hey SteveNo: May i remind you of your previous comment?
"Wait till the pitch starts to act up, remember they have to bat last on it, roll on our spinners!"Who's batting last?

If anything cricket is only useful for one thing:
An excuse to have meat pies and questionable amounts of beer in plastic cups.

What a great end to a test match - the look on Ponting's face when the dubious drinks and physio appearance was happening a couple of overs from the end was priceless.
Hopefully that will gee up the English lads - especially the top order batsmen who should all be ashamed after watching a pair of bowlers bat us to the draw.
Bring on Lords.

Pity we couldn't bowl out the bath dodgers quicker. The pitch was playing pretty well so there was no excuse for the piss poor batting of the top order so the draw wasn't a surprise.
Poms playing against the spirit at the end but who gives a fuck. We would probably done the same and I hope Ponting doesn't whinge about it,

so how was it a draw?
- Amicus0
the poms used every delaying tactic in the book. I think there needs to be a limit put on this sort of tactic. It was waaaay over the top.

Why weren't Clarke and Katich bowled more? Clarke's done the job late in the game before.

The Aussies will be pissed off and fired up on Thursday for the 2nd Test.
