BiB - you could have been describing his time in an england shirt there
That's a fair point

KP must be getting frustrated at Luke Wright only able to hit singles off the last ball of the over !

He's only faced 1 ball out of the 19 they've faced so far

in a way i'm hoping luke wright doesn't make a big score today as we might end up doing something stupid and recall him into the t20 squad if he does

I want him to get 100 !

Can't see England's present management/thinktank bringing him back especially as it's in Asia
If it was in Aus or SA , then he may have a chance

I'm enjoying the Aussie crowd cheering on an englishman and booing an australian (Mckay)

to me the difference between KP and wright is when KP is playing well he always looks in control

luke wright never does, hes just a slogger who occasionally has a good day

Bit harsh calling him a slogger but I agree with the comparison. He's always struck me as someone who can take the bowling apart if it's not top-notch

I know it wont happen but I think we could win the T20 with KP in our team and in the right frame of mind

Who will get the biggest headlines ?

KP if he scores 100 and the Stars win

Or

Alistair Cook on reaching 10,000 Test runs

maybe it is a bit harsh but just seen so many shots of him almost swinging himself off his feet with his eyes closed

agree with your second sentence, he is someone that can dominate a domestic attack but is just found out at the highest level as his ODI and international t20 stats suggest

I'm only watching the Test on an i-pad (BB is on the TV) with the volume down

Didn't look like he hit his pad with the bat either

think the stars will need around 180 to have any chance of defending it

170 looks doubtful from here

EDIT 15 off that over probably means they will

As always seems to happen, a not out for a plum LBW is followed by a boundary


Very poor umpiring so far
