5th Test: England vs Australia at the Brit Oval

[piriyanth]

All those boring, defensive Aussie players needs to step up and try to make this match a draw.

 

[Simbazz]

Simon, your old sig. I'm still going by that.

Right, there's so many arguments to say why we'll win this,

• World record chase by over 100 runs
• 2 days and about an hour and a half to bowl, whats that? Near as dammit 200 overs.
• Spinning like a beauty, Swann bowled well in the first inning.

I'll finish off saying that yes, we are England, we can lose from anywhere, but not here.

For you Aussies wanting rain, here's a little bright light...

By bright light, I mean the sun.

Is Watson gonna try to get all these runs himself? :laugh

 

[ajdude]

Haha, did anyone else see that on Fox Sports? I knew it wasn't a bad shot, but I didn't think it was THAT big of a shot! It went to a bloody golf green ffs!

The team selection was the only thing that has lost the game for the Aussies.

 

[angryangy]

It looks like he's tuned up a bit, maybe just a mental adjustment, but his defence is a lot better.

 

[TheGreemSim]

Australia will pull it of, just you watch it happen...

All those boring, defensive Aussie players needs to step up and try to make this match a draw.

But Mike Hussey can't even block atm.

 

[ajdude]

I think Hussey's choosing to leave them; he's looking for some sort of pension.

 

[Magz]

Someone needs some target practise...

 

[Insomniac]

Great running by Australia.

World class stuff.

 

[khalek]

Take off Jimmy, the ball's not swinging.

 

[Insomniac]

Bring Swann on already

 

[khalek]

Well as I say that, he brings one ball to come back in. :laugh

Come on Freddie, bowl those 90 mile bouncers

khalek added 2 Minutes and 28 Seconds later...

Yeah 4 overs bowled and no movement so Strauss should replace Anderson with Swann or Harmison.

The Aussies are doing their best to give us a couple of easy run outs. What are they doing? :laugh

Btw, Trott looks like a great find. How old is he?
