Mitchell Johnson leaves a straight one
You couldn’t make it up. Mitchell Johnson LITERALLY doesn’t know what a straight delivery is.
James Anderson pointed one towards the stumps and Johnson, alarmed, thought: ‘What the hell is that?’ and padded up. The umpire’s finger rose.
Johnson is probably still pondering this exotic trickery now; planning how he’ll expose James Anderson as a warlock.

bet is wasn’t Koertzen umpiring. He doesn’t give straight ones, ask Ian Bell.
I was saying some very bad words at the tv due to the stupidity of the aussies padding up (especially Hussey). I haven’t seen anything that stupid since Alderman was bowling in 89.
also, koertzen does give straight ones when they are going over the top. He’s having such a bad series that it could be time to do the kind thing and bring the white screen onto the field.
Bob Willis had a top rant about Rudi this evening – think he would dispense with the white screen (and the humane killer) and just strike him down
I was there!!
After two days at Edgbaston (well, one and a bit days) we have a new nickname for Rudi:
Tommy.
