Great day to have there

Didn't like the booing of Ponting personally (though you could boo Mitchell Johnson all day for all I care, a real panto villain!), but expect everyone was a bit carried away in the moment. Certainly the players had plenty of aggro in the middle which was spicy.

Great over from Swann that got Ponting

Ponting got some boos on Thursday when he came out to bat as well.

He also got a standing ovation led by the Barmy Army when he hit his 20,000th first class run.

I think the booing is meant to be banter and tbf where we were there was applause in reaction to the booing from England supporters. Mitchell johnson was getting standing ovations from the barmy army whenever he went to field over there and chants of "there's only 1 Mitchell Johnson", thought it was pretty funny personally.

The booing of Ponting was a bit unseemly, but the Eric Hollies stand does get very rowdy in the afternoon and it does all get a bit pantomime.

Brilliant day's cricket - not one single Mexican wave all day.

No comment about England having to play a Scotsman? Have you got no home bred cricketers?

He's not just Scottish, he's a teuchter - went to the Gaelic School in Glasgow.

Best of it is he was dropped by the Scotland team last month.

Mike Denness, Dougie Brown, Gavin Hamilton all Scots who played for England at some point

Many Welshmen too, recently a few Irish

loads of naturalised Saffers, Aussies too based on residency laws etc



Menawhile Flintoff must be very touch and go for this one.  He was on one leg fielding that last day.

twitter with bumble lol


@ tighty big prob for me is that grounds insist on taking all grass off pitch..i.e. slow pitch...leave grass on and harmy is a must...we don't get it

@BumbleCricket. Is that because the home clubs want revenue from five days? Or instructed by the England coach/captain?

@tighty club holds sway
