Cook. :doh:
Finn gets smith out caught behind but hits the stumps on his run up so it's a dead ball.
Not the first time he's done it.
Muppet.
England really don't want to be pissing about with Smith. :(
Strauss argued the 'dead ball' decision to the umpire by saying 'it's going to happen every over'...
Learn the rules, you dick. The umpire has said it can't happen so tell Finn to sort it out.
Hitting the stumps in a run up happens every over? :unsure:

It has happened with Finn 2 or 3 times already and, yeah, according to Botham he does it all the time. Interesting that it hasn't happened since the 'wicket' though...Quote:

Finn needs to sort his life out, it's not like he's Patel blubbering his way to the crease.
SA 60-0
Petersen has his 50 already
Smith only on 10
