Last recognised bat with 2 reviews left, worth a crack if he felt it was going over.

Give and take mate, our youngsters would surely have benefitted from having English greats in Shield teams with them, i’m not sure who has the right system.
ASHES: Talking points from Chester-le-Street Day Two
I don’t mind it to be honest, Bowlers celebrate exuberantly several times a match if they’re decent; a batsman may only make a handful of centuries, a bit of a yell and jump is fair game.
Chris Rogers the rock on which to build
Good game happening Australia A Vs. South Africa A. 8/202 chasing 252 for victory. Finch 94 not out, Sandhu 11 not out. 13 overs to go.

I think Haddin is probably a lock now, has gotten better as the series has gone on, and i think there is no point dropping him now if he was bought in for “leadership”. Give Wade a full Shield Season and reassess at the end of the summer.

Quick 99 from Bird on ashes debut and we should be fine!

Where’s Ed Cowan when you need a steady 32.

Looks like it’s coming on to the bat a bit quicker than yesterday, should be some runs in it if the swing can be negotiated this morning.

Root has been fairly poor opening apart from his 180, i think the team looked better with Compton at the top and Root at 6

He really does have a horrible technique, got himself bogged down and missed a sweep shot; he must be close to being dropped.

I’m happy with the result for Australias sake but the DRS is an absolute basket case this series.

Taylor has the odd moment of excitement, something i’m yet to hear from Strauss.

There’s no doubt in my mind that is the plan, a la Maxwell/Warner in India.

Is Strauss the most boring cricket commentator of all time? I honestly can’t remember any.

I agree mate, since he went back to domestic cricket and re-invented himself as a
Batsman who rolls the arm over rather than trying to be an all rounder he has looked much more competent. Can’t wait for tonight I really hope he gets his tonne.
Rogers passes first-class milestone on a big day for Australia
Hopefully someone gets him started on T20, his rants on pyjama cricket are legendary.

As Stuart Clark was saying on Fox today, if Australia lose this test then Rogers may be re-retired from International Cricket, as persisting with a 35 year old when the series is lost seems fruitless, seems he realises he needs to prove himself today, no more chances.

I wish channel 9 would show some creative thinking and hire Holding + Bumble for the summer.

I am scared to leave my seat, Rogers is looking too good to be true. If someone told you an Australian opener would make a less than run-a-ball 50 you would never have picked C.Rogers.

The last Australian Opener to make a 50 at Old Trafford was Michael Slater in 1993, 20 year drought.

You were just hearing Gower and Strauss, potentially Sky Sports worst pairing, I hope Michael Holding is doing this test, his commentary in the last was priceless. “Watson was the selfish one, he was plum! Watson is always plum!”

It seems like they’re trying to draw the front foot out… he has fallen for this many times before, it all has a sense of foreboding about it.

He really is an energy sapping force.

Here’s Andrew Strauss to send everyone to sleep before lunch.

Harris can bat a bit, if ever you need a lucky 30 from a tail ender today is the day.
