They used to bowl too short in Australia due to seeing the extra bounce, 80mph and no lateral movement was cannon fodder at the length they bowled, they needed to push it up fuller, and not be deterred by being driven, Anderson was so guilty of this.
One of the fav cricket stories is Warne turning up to Hampshire and being introduced to Tremlett, who had headphones in but the wires were coming out of his mouth, Tremlett then preceded to pull out one of those old CD walkmans from his mouth and said hi
Absolute monster of a man.
And I was there in Melbourne and Sydney and it was amazing. Honestly Kev, it was brilliant.
See I’m not sure. Was definitely a turning point in English cricket when we actually had a team with 7-8 very good players for the first time in 20 years instead of 1-2. When I watch replays I cannot get over just how bad Kevin Pieterson’s hair is.
Got lucky with McGrath rolling his ankle too, but I think that was a complete side, with a keeper who was picked for keeping too I might add (another bit of luck, taking that catch to win the 4th test when it wouldn't have been out with today's technology). Flintoff was immense that series, 95mph, some big runs.
Surprised he hasn't popped into the women's world cup thread yet to tell us who's not gonna win it.
Been waiting for your post recognising that Aus collapsed from 264/3 to 334 all out. Not really having a go. Just pointing out that all teams do it but people tend to notice much more when it's their team doing it.
I've got this horrid memory of flintoff bowling near half volleys that would still bounce up near the batters throats he looked that hard to face lol
True, even in the steve waugh era for us I was always waiting for an inevitable batting collapse when in reality it probably wasn't that often
As a bowler, that over he got Langer and Ponting is something I don't get tired of replaying on Youtube. Ponting was probably the best player in the world then too.
