First Test Aust v England - Score Update

[QF WP]

Refresh my memory, is it possibly being draped in an Aussie flag that got him booted? What was the controversy last year? I forget..

Doubt it, I think he was heckling the Pommie supporters up there and threw a beer/empty plastic cup. Looks like he could be up for $600 fine. They've started the ground annoucements about general disturbances.

Note that the game was abandoned at 4.30pm so tomorrow is an earlier start (9.30am)

Been a good start this morning with Hussey surviving an appeal, asking for challenge and it being upheld. We still have 2 challenges left.

Overcast conditions perfect for swing bowling. Plenty of appeals for lbw already but with no challenges left, the Poms have to accept what the umpires give.

Hussey just scored his century! Haddin had already scored his half century. We are grinding the Poms, already past their score and with these recognised batsman left we are looking good. Saw Mitchell Johnson batting in the nets this morning, I think he'll be batting for a good time, not a long time.

Ohhh, forgot to mention that I walked into the Cricketers Club with Chris Caton, Chief Economist for Bankers Trust this morning. He was off to the President's Table in the Wisden Room.

Yesssssss. Haddin gets a century. Huss on 142. We want 420 to 450 and then bury the Poms with 2 days left to bat

Great knock from the boys. The strategy here will be interesting.

Any calls Lindsay?

Who would have thought that Australia would get this close to 500 after being 5/143!

Just goes to show that with enough chances and a lot of luck it is possible to score runs....

Have to agree. What the hell is going on with these English and their butter fingers? Cripes...

Sorry, it's been a while, after lunch I got unto an ugly shout - Penfolds St Henri 96 all round is not a cheap shout. You should have seen how long it took me to type this, even with predictive text. Now 9/475, can't understand how they haven't declared already. What the bloody hell is Ricky thinking. We are 215 ahead, 2 days remaining and we really would like to have them in batting tonight. We need a new captain

Finally, all out for 481, lead by 220 on the first innings.

15 minutes until we get into the Poms.

First Michelle for Finn, I do believe

What's a Michelle? Or are you saying he sleeps around? Or is this another iPhone spelling fail?

Ah, cricket talk for "5 for". Think of her surname.

The Aussies have 9 overs against the Poms. Go you good things.

Aaaaaagggghh, so many close calls already. Very offensive field, they want a wicket

revised, Aussies have 13 overs against the Poms, minimum of 90 overs in the day. Will go to 5.30pm now. Hmm, will they bring in Johnson & Xavier Doherty

10 overs left. 0/13. Will we get a wicket. Will they bring in Doherty. Will. The Mexican wave take off (it's died every time).

The Barmy just launched into "God Save The Queen". Surely from here, only the weather can save them
