I have only just seen this thread but if my husband isn't on it yet, I will be amazed:eek:.

God knows if he ever finds it, he will ever get any work done.:p

I'm not sure what you mean? I use Safari and apart from a few pop-up ads that are easily disposed off, I don't have any problems. Sorry if its done your machine in, I wouldn't have posted the link knowing that.

He may be in for his batting.
Remember Cardiff 2009!


Just to explain - this is being dictated to me by my OH from his large cushions in bed as he cannot be bothered to log me out of BE and log in again as himself.


Also, Novo can try this link to watch live cricket
http://www.crictime.com/
which won't kill his giraffe on the mac (or whatever it was he said).

Just what I needed, Oink - cricket comment at bedtime!!

Tomorrow he can send his own comments:frown:.;)

....and here I am.

Good call to include Monty - if Jimmy A had held onto the edge from Misbah when he only on 30, we'd be looking good. As it is we still have a lot of work to do.

Good luck to Strauss & Cook on their 100th opening partnership tomorow.

Ist wicket of the day. Broad gets Misbah Ul Haq LBW. Broad looks really fit and on it.

Talking of 'Mr fit' - we may need Mr B to do 'his thang' with the old willow as well after the late wickets on day 2. So much for Abu Dahbi being batsman's paradise !

Other cricketing news is that TMS has secured rights for next 6 (?) years radio broadcasting. If only we could receive it here of course....

I missed those wickets as I had to go bed. Although I like Monty I still think either Finn or Onions would have been a better option. Lets hope Bresnan gets better soon.

You can listen to TMS over the internet. If you've got a decent data package you can listen to it in the car on your phone. There is also way if you have the right program to even tape it so you can listen at a more convenient time.

Doesn't have something to do with broadcasting rights or some other such nonsense ? I seem to remember trying to listen in Canada & getting the polite "...not from where you are matey" message.

Agree with you about Monty - I'd have picked Finn myself, Finn was about the only positive for England in India last year.

I got it las summer that's all I know. England need another 150 at least. I can't see it though. :(

I was watch the India Aussie match before and they weren't half peppering poor Shamra. He was having a torrid time with it but it was funny to watch.

Looks like England are in a winning position after today. Great no.8 batting from Broad and Monty did his thing rather nicely after that. :thumbup:
