I don't know.... What are India doing? Broad and Clubbie are both bowling very well.

I just hope it doesn't get to their heads and makes the bowl short, the full line is obviously working

Clubbie has now bowled more overs in test cricket for England than anyone else...

People are way too touchy. Just admire him for the talent that he has which (I highly doubt) none of us on here have. People keep repeating themselves far too much!

India all out 152.

Broad 6/25
Clubman 3/46

Clubman gets his average down to 29.97... Still a clubman.

England have gone from no world class bowlers to nearly having 2 in one morning ;).

In England, Broad is defined as an All Rounder.... His batting average is better than his bowling average!

if you use Sir Geoff as a yardstick....nowt as good as in my day, play that bowling with a stick of rhubarb... yawn ...you get the picture :)

he reckons Anderson is our best bowler since Botham

yes...far more effective in home conditions when it swings about, tends to go just straight when there is nothing in it for him

but I personally think we have the two best opening bowlers for a long long time, and ive been following England since about 1979.

most bowlers have home conditions in their favour,quick tracks in SA, slow turners in the UAE for Ajmal,pace and bounce for Johnson etc in OZ.

Steyn would be the best quick because he has taken wickets all over the place but he is at the very top,Wasim and Waqar did the same years back.

Anderson and Broad would be world class at the moment, go back to the great bowlers in the 80's then yes...they would fall short.

But there are not the number of quality seamers around now. :)

So by your own magic world class figure of sub 30, Jimmy is now a world class clubbie with approaching 400 test poles.

Whatever it is you smoke can I have some?? Seems like good sh!t
