What's upsetting him?


guessing loads of things.
england batsman not scoring runs, umpires warning him, batsman scoring runs and the pitch being so dead.

Looking at the way Anderson is acting this is like a 400-450 pitch.

Anderson's outburst to Dhoni and Jadeja probably puts him in a class of his own.

It started whe an umpire warned him for running on the wicket and went on from there. After ignoring running on the wicket by Pakistan bowlers at Lords they've gone crazy and warning bowlers for getting close as if they are treading on this pitch. Yasir was warned and his foot barely touched the forbidden area.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

Cook's often ticking off the umpire, which winds me up.

New ball or bust

Starting to look like a draw might be the best we can hope for unless the new ball brings 2 quick wickets

Fortunately pakistan aren't exactly flying along

They will either have to speed up or bat most of tomorrow to get a huge lead

wouldn't buy it right now considering tickets won't sell out suspect they would only sell 10-20% of them and most of them would be on the day.
always a chance the game could be finished on the saturday.

Funny how, when our team is down, we first start slagging off their cricketing ability, then move on to character assassination.
