Jeez, what a match! Hoggard never got his due from the media and pace- and glitz- obsessed English fans. A true servant of English cricket who performed admirably in the dustbowls of the subcontinent, South Africa, New Zealand (remember Christchurch victory) and West Indies (hat-trick).
Never shirked responsiblity and was deadly when there was a bit of swing around. WAFG!
When you have matches like this, who wants T20 and IPL? Screw that shit and long live test match cricket! What a team we had for that 18 months! Pure class. Vaughan was the best captain we ever had. Long live King Vaughan.
This is my favourite match in cricket....its was jus amazing watchin Hoggard bowl like a dream this day....he is special talent who should b in the england team!!!
When England get it right, they are as good as any team in the world. Their inconsistency really pisses me off though. Brilliant one series, and then they can be ordinary the next one. Look at the ashes 2005, then here in Australia in 2006.
Can someone give me one good reason why Hoggard isn't in the team now? It's ridiculous. 1. Strauss 2. Cook 3. Collingwood 4. Pietersen 5. Bell (Bell is not a number 3) 6. Prior 7. Flintoff 8. Rashid 9. Broad 10. Anderson 11. Hoggard
I'll give you a clue - no one on earth will be able to give you a good reason why Hoggard isn't in the team. Can you imagine how good Sidebottom and Hoggard in the same team would be? The two best swing bowlers in the world, with Flintoff to back them up.
His non-selection is absolutely ridiculous.
BTW, I disagree - Bell IS a number three - he just needs a rocket up his arse to solidify that position.
I'll secong that only .. the Ashes where Austrlia needed two to win, England needed just a wicket and Steve Harmison won it for them was really enthralling. Ashes 2005, you should check it out.
Well, it was more the incompetence of billy bowden than Harmison's efforts that won england the match, given that Kasprowicz was given out when, according to the laws of the game, he was not out since his hand wasn't on the bat when the ball hit it. Good thing Australians aren't Indians or there would still be controversy raging and whining en masse about this decision
I won't comment on your top because there can be alot to that but I agree with your comment, "Good thing Australians aren't Indians or there would still be controversy raging and whining en masse about this decision" and if it is true that Kasprowichz wasn't out then darely you guys deserve alot of credit for taking a blow in the stomach. Indian would have .......... I don't need to tell you.
That was truely AWESOME batting by Tresco. England miss him in all forms of cricket!! Real shame that he won't play for England again, but i'm happy to see him play for Somerset.
Some excellent bowling from Hoggard. He bowled very well during the Ashes. I hope Trescothick comes back and gets over his depression. That is a bad illness. I feel for the bloke. It's good to see he is in form and getting runs (200 in county warm up game)

No Rashid, he hasn't got the ability to bowl a side out yet and can be very exspensive, Anderson is proper gash too

Bell is a fantastic number 6. his average in that position is over 50 and he is the best at batting with the tail.
