The Ashes - Australia 2013/14

[toffeejack]

I reckon he bowls alright ya know, bit of turn, lots of bounce, more likely to take wickets too when you're worried about what's being bowled at the other end.

he should have been in the team 2 years ago instead of utter tosh like michael beer and ashton agar.

he hasn't even turned a ball today, all 5 wickets have been wild swipes. we're suppose to go after him, but not swing the bat with your eyes closed and head all over the place. cannot believe this england team is actual professional cricketers.

6 runs for last 5 wickets. It's a flat wicket. All about pressure and knowing how to win, the Aussies have the smell for it now, took 10 years to knock it out of them and they're back in again ffs.

 

[toffeejack]

if they came up against an india or south africa they'd quickly be put in their place though. they're still pretty average in my eyes, caught england at the perfect time.

 

[Elong]

Yeah, 4 of the top 6 only average in the 30s, SA would put them to the sword.

This could be entertaining if Warner gets going.

This England team is a complete joke.
After being outplayed all series, they have ONE good day yesterday, and headlines appear hailing a "complete performance". WTF?? They are so far up their own a$$es and believe their own hype. Their attitude completely stinks.

They are going down 5-0.

 

[Walken]

pretty brainless shot that. hitting into the wind? not his fault everyone else has been absolute ****e like, but probably shouldn't have tried to take a man on the boundary into the wind on.

True but KP had to hit out with that tail, he protected them against Johnson, but they couldnt even handle Lyon, I could juts about stomach losing 5-0 to a great australia team, but this lot are completley avaerage

 

[Danny EFC]

I know we where ****e last night but I just have a feeling that this game isnt over yet, few quick wickets and its game on!

From Luke in London: If England could somehow pull off the impossible today they'll be 4-3 up in the 10 match series. Even if Australia win in Sydney and the series finishes 4-4, surely England could claim victory (moral at least) and "bragging rights" on equivalent of football's "away goals" rule?

Good to see this is now catching on....

tosh, ausssies will come back with aggeragat scores from the 90's. all that matters is the last series, because that's what dtermines who holds the urn.

Meh who cares about the past? Live in the now, man.

 

[Minimeister]

That would of been the 1st wicket if the keeper hadn't let it go past the post.
