Trader Posted 19 July, 2009 Share Posted 19 July, 2009 No, I don't think so and I mentioned 500+ which was certainly possible. But not possible apparently batting fourth instead of third. History is bunk. It shouldn't be possible for a 59 year old to finish 2nd in the Open. Hope for me yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shouldn't be possible for a 59 year old to finish 2nd in the Open. Hope for me yet! Lol, we'll see. I agree scoring 290 would be more than possible but I prefer to be in our current position especially given that KP and Bopara are really out of touch and Cook is struggling as well despite his runs.

keithd Posted 20 July, 2009 Share Posted 20 July, 2009 why am i still not bothered by this partnership? i really should be nervous, but i'm not. we'll get one of them sometime soon, prob in the first half hour, then we'll take the remaining wickets at regular intervals, i expect auz to fall short by about 80-90 runs. watch this space. ps my sky player is ****ing around. couldnt watch any of fridays play, the player was telling me i've changed computer for viewing already this month. erm, no, fixed pc, it dont change....so, got email thru on saturday night saying they've reset all my settings and i can therefore hopefully watch this morning (not the schofield version) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintjersey Posted 20 July, 2009 Share Posted 20 July, 2009 All over by lunch I reckon. Get rid of Haddin or Clarke quickly, then a bit of resistence for the 7th wicket partnership before the tail collapses. Yes I am being optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMikey Posted 20 July, 2009 Share Posted 20 July, 2009 There you have it, first time in 70 something years! Well deserved imo, i've only been watching the match this morning in full, highlights of the other days, and England have bowled really well today. I have to say though, I can only see Australia winning the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

um pahars Posted 20 July, 2009 Share Posted 20 July, 2009 Swann deserves some credit as well for his 4 wickets, including Clarke. Decent bowling in both innings for England which was the difference, with Anderson deserving the plaudits for his part in the first innings.
