    Remember Ian Botham calling Phil Hughes a cheat for claiming a catch that just bounced in front of him...

    Jonathan Trott's was the worse I have ever seen... to actually pick a still ball up from the ground is so bad... would love to hear beefy now..

    Yep.
    I didn't see Trott's.

    Going back to me earlier harsh criticism of Clarke, well yeah.
    I still think he is a bit of a tool off field but as long as he keeps scoring tonnes.

    Amazing display today.
    I only saw the last hour of play sadly.
    He is in Bradmanesque touch.

    Let's not forget Hussey.

    4x200 in a year :shock:

    this captaincy seems to have lifted the weight from his shoulders which is messed up..lol

    but can he bat now..and makes it looks so so so easy ..and against one of the best bowling sides in the world .

    hats off to him .

    I just hope he saves it for your lot...

    He is making what Alastair Cook did for England last Ashes look like child's play... And COok was amazing...

    Clarke is out of this world atm

    Yeah there have been some great catches. Lucky we have taken the half chances, cause without them, we'd be fucked...

    And Kev, KP was awesome.. so was Monty...

    So I am back playing cricket...

    1st ball I faced today, straight into the nuts... edged the 2nd ball through slips...

    I also copped a bouncer on the arm... Lots of fun...

    10... Eyes lit up big time... got caught on the boundary to a great catch... had plenty on it too...

    Oh, and that was the 2nd highest score haha... we got skittled for like 80... only 2 of us got double figures... such a bad team I've walked into... But good fun though..
