Its raining @ Headingley........rain is on its way

Durham is a seamers wicket, so the next Test I think Bresnan has to come out for a wicket taking bowler.

[PaulWinch again]

Lost a review there.

[taylorsworkrate]

I suspect that's another poor showing from hotspot.

[taylorsworkrate]

Yep snicko again showing what can only have been an edge

[PaulWinch again]

It was looking at snicko, they need to get snicko involved in the reviews.

[taylorsworkrate]

Hotspot really needs to be jettisoned. It is clearly nowhere near the standard required.

[peter w]

I thought there was a little mark on hotspot. Never mind.

Back to pwa. Yes, you slow them down by taking wickets but a side that scored 500+ for 7 in the first innings on a good batting track are unlikely to be all out in about 30 or 40 overs. so, slow them down.

[PaulWinch again]

You won't slow Warner down much unless you get him out.

[taylorsworkrate]

Its a constant source of amazement at times how the commentators cannot see what the evidence is telling them. Atherton has become the worst at it

[taylorsworkrate]

Swann not bowling well at Warner. Too wide

[taylorsworkrate]

The danger with trying to slow a side down is that there can be far too many easy singles on offer, meaning they can take 4 or 5 an over without any risk

[PaulWinch again]

Swann not bowling well at Warner. Too wide

Short as well.

[peter w]

You won't slow Warner down much unless you get him out.

26 from 39 suggests otherwise.As has also been said,it doesn't help with swann bowling short off stumps long hops to him.

[taylorsworkrate]

Thats poor Broad
