Ooops...

So.. after a diabolical couple of sessions with the bat.. England's illustrious crew attemt to show that they are ready to go on the offensive with the ball... and the early indications are that the final session of the day is going to be even more disheartening than the first two:


Code:
M J Hoggard 7.0 2 25 0 
S J Harmison 5.0 1 26 1 
S P Jones 3.0 0 14 0 
A Flintoff 2.0 0 10 0
Harmison, Simon Jones AND Flintoff going at 5 an over.. and 5 of Hoggard's 7 overs going at the same rate... on a pitch where Langeveldt was able to take a 5-for whilst going at 3 an over against (supposedly) better batsmen.

Hmmmm.
