Ha ha Gwan smith

Oof, bottle job from Smith.

 

[Claytop]

Wow!!

 

[Claytop]

Give him some stick.

 

[Gabriel]

Plenty singles available if they just drop it and run.

 

[Chipmeister]

Its been said earlier, there is an angle of the umpire at the bowling end about to hand the cap to Green, this surely indicated he feels the over is over.

 

[MCFC1993]

Lords giving it Smith, love it.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

No. I'm not defending them. Just recognise that teams can use such events to their own advantage.

It was cheating pure and simple. The umpire is clearly seen to hand Greens cap back before the ball hits the wicket. That to me and 99% of cricket fans deem that to be the end of the over. Cummins should of retracted the appeal and the umpire should of advised that as well.

It's pure shithousey from them

It’s the hope that kills.. Surely stokes will get caught in a minute

If he just takes a second to think calmly, there’s so many free runs available while everyone is on the boundary.

107 runs really isn’t a lot in 2s and singles!

That's the spirit...

are you entertained

Incredible how similar the two Tests have developed. England still require more runs than Australia did at Edgbaston, but the stars could be aligning for another Captain's innings.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Ponting flapping on coms & trying to coach the team, he was really hoping somebody from the Aussie set up is listening

 

[MCFC1993]

Lovely from Broad. That shot and the shit-housing.

 

[N1985]

Go on Broady!

So the gap between the two teams isn't as big as the doom and gloomers have been suggesting right?

 

[Chipmeister]

Be nice if someone could actually point out to the pundits, maybe via twitter the fact the umpire was handing over the cap to Green, surely this creates a different argument.

 

[jimharri]

Probably the kiss of death, but whatever. At what point re runs needed does this partnership start getting the Aussies ever so slightly twitchy?

I’d say they’re getting twitchy now.
