bored tbh of the sky commentators and parts of the media who still believe harmison is a world class bowler just waiting for something to click and that plunkett is some great white hope.

Poor Matty Prior, you've got to feel sorry for him, and bizarrely this over will go down as a maiden on Harmis analysis:wacko:

How Bowden didn't give any wides there was ridiculous, maybe he's finding it as painful to watch as us, and doesn't want to see any extra deliveries:unsure:

God. Someone just injure Harmison so that he will deffo not play next week.

What a joke. WHat an embarassment. This is PATHETIC.

As Gower and Atherton have just touched on, it must be REALLY frustrating for a batsman to face this sort of rubbish and not actually have the chance to score many runs. :unsure:

Harmison is making Plunkett look like the best bowler in the world at the moment. I am just stunned that he still is wearing an England shirt.

On this topic, seeing Alan Donald in one is plain funny!

i must reckon, after almost an hour of watching, that cricket must have played a big role in creating the English humour style.

I really wish someone else was doing today's report, TBH... I can only see WI messing this up, and in that eventuality I'll struggle to avoid at some point saying something along the lines of "some of the worst bowling you could possibly wish to see was somehow outdone by some batting which allowed it to get wickets".

Not so sure about the last bit. We've wasted the new ball and these guys look like they could build a respectable reply.

Perhaps simply ignore the match situation and write about England's bowling crisis?

Barring the biggest comeback since Lazarus, surely this is the end of the road though.

EDIT
Cue his 2nd wicket. Ah well ....

I sympathise with you. What an awful way to make some of your first forays into Test watching! :(

Please don't desert us, I promise you, it does get better!!!
