I don't think Sehwag's fortune's on tours away from the subcontinent really have much to do with the comparison, though. Either way Rohit is right. Lots of sticky wickets and swing.
Could do with getting Smith out in this session. Starting to look like he might take the game away from us.
YES! Just as I posted Anderson gets him. Big wicket, really needed that.
That's massive too! Haddin has scored hundreds in the first test of both the last 2 Ashes and we just couldn't get him out at all in 2009. Big turn there from Swann.
Anderson ripping through them now the ball's moving. 🙂
Poor technique all around.
I think England will bat much better 2nd time around.
They're unable to play Swann. LBW chances every ball........ and there goes Pattinson on the 3rd consecutive LBW appeal. 117-9.
Hmmm this Agar looks like he's fairly comfortable with the bat. Quick check shows he's made three 50s in his 10 first class matches so he's not really a number 11.
Yep, this guy is definitely a batsman playing at number 11 because he's 19 and on debut. These are proper bastman's shots, not tail end swing and hope.
This is a 400+ wicket. England's batters need to knuckle down 2nd innings.
Playing your best batsman at no.11. The Aussies are always the innovators. Remarkable stuff. I'm not even frustrated...what a debut.
The Ashes never fail to disappoint.
So you could say this guy is a false 11 huh?
Cannot believe what this guy is doing right now.
Agar the Orrible 😃
Highest ever tenth wicket stand by Australia.
Highest ever tenth wicket stand by anyone.
Highest ever no. 11 score for Agar.
Agar gone for 98 off 101 balls. Bugger.
Even England fans will be a little disappointed about that. I know I am. Anyway, what an innings - sure we'll be seeing a lot more from him in the future.
And probably not at tenth drop.
