Day 1 - First Session

First Session Proves Hard Work For Battling Engish

The sun was shining, the Aussies where chanting and the Barmy Army had already got their big bellies out when Steve Harmison sent down the first delivery...A dot ball, the only good thing that happened to England in the Opening Session.

The First Session went to Australia as they went on there way to posting a good first innings total, with Hayden and Langer sticking together for a hundred partnership, without loss. Flintoff tried every bowler, but himself strangely, and was unable to get a breakthrough on this hard Gabba wicket.

A textbook Langer Cover Drive

This is what most of the morning was like for England

Langer makes his way to a quickfire 50

The England bowlers toil for no reward

Well, here he is, Monty gets a bowl

A great opening stand by the Aussie openers

Aussies in control here. Pommies pummelled.

 

[Hooper]

Thanks guys for the comments. Next update comming tomorrow probably, will play the second session tonight.

Freddie isn't bowling himself?! Weird aye? Does this happen often?

 

[Hooper]

Hmm, it seems that the Ashes are a bit old for Cricket Stories, not much interest in a series that has featured about a million stories.

So what should I do? I want to do something really different, like an Asian Test series.

Maybe West Indies in New Zealand or something? Wattya guys reckon about that?

 

[OrderDX]

yeh sounds good to me or maybe you could do a one day tour with a minnow like zimbabwe

 

[Pakistani Army]

Hmm...How about India vs Pakistan?
