Plum?

I was lucky enough yesterday to be able to watch the highlights and it seems that Watson was lucky not to be given out LBW yesterday to Swann when he was on 37 and Katich could well have been given LBW to Anderson for 4. (If anyone watching the live coverage and umpteen replays knows otherwise, let me know!). So it seems like Australia had the rub of the green last night - evening up the wrong decisions against them in the Lord's Test to a certain extent.

Watson has definitely looked better than Hughes, but I imagine Hughes is wondering why he couldn't have had the same luck...

....possibly because he's unlikely to ever get in line for an LBW!

However think today the Auzzies would say they got the rough end of the decisions with Clarke being given with the ball clearly missing leg stump and then Johnson when the ball was going over the stumps (if you believe hawk-eye that is).

D'oh Bopara just played on, rubbish shot
