You should mention the fact she doesn’t like cricket. That’s unreasonable behaviour definitely grounds for divorce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will play horses for courses Tests till he is more accurate/resilient for a couple of years I'd have thought. Bringing his batting to the side as number averaging in the 20s will help his cause. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Shane Warne is asking for too much, at the moment I am happy enough with Paul Warne. kevinhectoring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not express pace, but to bowl quick and with the amount of control and accuracy he showed today is quite extraordinary. The Kiwis looked completely shellshocked.

He and Jimmy are simply phenomenal - we are so lucky to have had the pair of them for so long. They don't always fire, but when they do, they are moments to savour. Make the most of them for the next year or two. Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today Broad and Anderson broke McGrath and Warne’s record for most test wickets by a pair of test bowlers playing together. 1002 ! Records are there to be broken but given the dominance of the shorter forms it’s hard to imagine that this one will ever be challenged.
