Fucking hell if Broad isn't fit to bowl, get him off the fucking pitch.

[paul_e]

why are we still bowling over the wicket Agar, he's very strong off his legs and the pitch is doing nothing outside off stump so lets angle in at him a little.

[PaulWinch again]

This could be enough to win this Test match.

I'm enjoying watching this lad bat, he doesn't look like a number 11.

[paul_e]

We look really ragged here, it's very frustrating.

Far too many deliveries into the legs of the lefties.

[PaulWinch again]

He's doing fantastically well along with Hughes. However there are no excuses for us batting pathetically again now.

[PaulWinch again]

Looks like I wasn't far off when I said Australia will have an 100 + run lead. This game is gone, short of a remarkable batting display from us.

Swann has got a lot of joy out of the pitch here, If we can post 400+ (looks possible on this track now) He should have enough to work with in the last couple of days.

I think we'll probably be mentally shot now and struggle to get a reasonable total, but who knows.

For the sake of a couple of runs as a cricket fan I hope he gets his ton.

And gets out soon after.

I'm not so sure, as I said earlier, they'll have seen how lifeless the pitch has become, if that doesn't give them the confidence to get big scores then nothing will.

[PaulWinch again]

He's gone for 98, well played Agar and Hughes. However we need a fucking miracle now and to show some guts.

[Villan For Life]

At last......well batted Ashton Agar you Aussie bastard

[bertlambshank]

And the Bears are 37-3 what a shit day so far.

[Chris Jameson]

Gutted for him, would love to have seen him get his century, he looks like he isn't too disappointed though.
