Could he have wished for a better way to take his 500th test wicket? Bowling against an opening batsman, inswinging ball and the middle stump sent cartwheeling. Great achievement and a great servant to England.
One of only 3 seam bowlers to reach 500 wickets with Walsh and McGrath the other two, he'll probably end up with more than any seamer too! My aussie pal said he wished he played for them which says it all really! Great effort and top athlete staying fit for so long in a tough game
I watched most of yesterday's play. One of his final overs before the Windies were bowled out was to Bishoo. He never took the wicket but that over was one of, if not the finest I've ever seen in cricket.
Looking forward to tomorrow big time! Something tells me that in spite of being on top tonight, we'll somehow find a way to blow it and make a match of it!
I've enjoyed the series although I won't get chance to watch tomorrow due to my lad having a game then the safc game and am running the great north run on Sunday so won't see much of that either!!
You've got a busy weekend mate. Enjoy every minute of it. I hope your lad wins his game. Forget about the cricket though. Just be in the moment!
