possibly the worst decision I've ever seen in a test match
wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Bat hit the pad - think the umpire gave it on hearing two sounds. |

It's more likely he gave the LBW, the bat was a foot away from the ball the LB was closer than that.

Should stop Tighty and Longy from writing the obituaries for a while anyway.
Lol I have found pessimism is best way to be when you follow sport, it gives you a sense of balance and you don't end up being featured on tv as one of those idiots crying at the end of football match, like a near relative has diedan england fan. Fyp Sandy Please stay off the English thread and go argue about celtic/rangers or something...............

Given the way the wicket is playing now, I actual don't mind England playing their shots within reason. If we get over 200 here i will be delighted.

These umpires have been terrible, that is 5 wickets this test they have given that haven't been out. Two Aussies lbw and three England batsman to clear no balls.

Based on this I have backed the Aussies.  |

Well done to the Oval groundsman who prepared something a bit less than normal, left it uncovered for a few days, and thus produced a result wicket
County games at the Oval all year have been 500-5 dec, 600-8 draw
just as well we won the toss

If I was a gambling man I'd lump a small wodge on the Aussies now, and then lump a bigger wodge on England at the end of the first session tomorrow after they go all out for ~100 more
Get the book looking like Aussies +$0 England +$xx Tie -$millionsquillion
Is plan?

swap the aussies and the draw and that's what my book looks like. I have to sell a kidney if the aussies somehow win this |

A tie and a draw are vastly different in cricket.
