Interesting now...

Agree with you. And Broad is a legend of the game. But I've been discussing England's greatest 11 with mates this weekend. It's a tough one. Does he get in? He has loads of wickets. Big innings in the ashes. Can score a few with the bat. But would you have him in over the likes of say Truman or Willis who have much better avarages. Then there's Anderson and a few spinners to chose from.

It is a good question and I am sure there are some that would leave him out, in my lifetime Anderson and Broad lead the attack in any greatest talk.

 

[Walken]

Great start

Smith will be the key man now

Very much this, aussies are faves until he is gone

 

[Charro]

This is the end for Jimmy.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Very poor bowling by Anderson

 

[jaspercabbage]

It's sad to see Jimmy getting clattered.

 

[Walken]

Just bang it in short to head, give him nothing

 

[PITA]

Take away what you think of him personally and tell me he is not one of the greats of the game.

Always love the stupidity of the 'Well, they played for so long, of course they broke records/scored so many runs/got so many wickets/insert achievements for other sports'. Is not being able to play at the top for that long an achievement in itself, not many players in any physical sport gets to be able to stay at the top for half the time Broad has been there.

Punter agrees with you even if @McBain doesn’t.

Slipping away here I fear...

 

[DuuuncanHadaPigeon]

All set up for a magic spell by broad, does he have it in him one last time?

 

[ToffeeTim]

Need a wicket pretty badly

 

[DuuuncanHadaPigeon]

Not sure how winviz has us 53% favourites? Think Australia are pretty nailed on unless we to a couple of wickets soon

 

[Rita_Poon]

smith survives. Stokes drops somehow. odd.

 

[Mozza1987]

I don't know how that's not a catch. Ridiculous rule
