That's my interpretation but might not be correct.”

I forgot about wicket maiden overs so weren't in my total but quite happy to have missed it

So as Broad got 5 wickets we get both the 3 and 5 wicket bonus? I assumed we would only get the higher bonus awarded

Not sure, I was assuming yes, as my score was correct other than 2 wicket maidens had not been included.

Similarly with batting, if a player scores 100, does he also get the bonus for scoring 50?

Thanks for the input guys. I think I have missed the wicket maidens definately

Hi fatsi, you do indeed get both bonuses

At work at the moment so will check when I get home

Anything else anyone notices or unsure of, please dont hesitate to post. I'd rather get this xorrect at the beginning rather than confusion at the end

Yes he does . For eg 122 = 122 +25+50+22 = 219

No lbw's from 40 wickets must be quite unusual in a test match

Thanks .

I think most of us are going to be way out on that series prediction as I don't think there will be that many at Perth either listening to the comments about how bouncy that track will be

Just in case you haven't heard, Jonathon Trott has left the tour and returned home

He was (only) selected in 4 teams (realale,james1953,Bhav and Jake)

He wasn't chosen for any of the series predictions

No news yet on a replacement
