Looks like all you'll be seeing him do is field. Holland better have his phone on as he should be expecting a call from Hilditch. Looks like Hastings still isn't 100% fit, if he was playing for Australia he would be straight out dumped for this.

Arrogance? Haha. It was probably a prematch deal between White and Strauss about how long teams would bat for. That often happens in these type of games doesn't it?
Yeah probably, but let's not let the truth get in the way of a good story.

well makes sense, we know all the batsmen are in form. Need to let the bowlers have as much time as possible to pick the new spot.

Carters attempts to sweep and is bowled. Can't blame him too much for being bored by Collingwood, it happens to the best of us.

Keath is getting belligerent on old Monty

Collingwood shenanigans again. Wade drives early, and brilliantly caught by Cook at silly mid off.

Six from Hastings to get off the mark. One thing that is missing from more important games is the satisfying 'donk' of ball hitting sight screen.

Ah but he's out now, slog sweeping Monty. On paper, Collingwood and Panesar proving the best of the bowlers. Not sure what England are getting out of this at the moment, but Victoria must be pretty happy with their youngsters.

Oh this is fun now, Strauss bowling slow left arm to tailender McKay.

And Eoin Morgan. Yes sir, I do believe this is declaration bowling.

Strauss has got a wicket. Actually not a bad ball to Hill, I think he bowled a leg break that was just good enough and sneaky enough for lbw. Someone in the crowd cries "kill yourself" at the bamboozled Hill.

Morgan's got a nice action for his offbreaks.

Strauss's chinamen are lol worthy.

50 run partnership. About time. 9 minutes, what snails.
