5th Test: England vs Australia at the Brit Oval

[Hooper]

Getting nervous? They still need 333 to win, going to need Ponting or Hussey to get a double, and then one of Clarke, North or Haddin to make a big hundred as well. The chances of them making 546 on this track are incredibly slim. No-ones ever chased a score this big in the thousands of Tests played since the 1800's, so to chase it on this pitch is all but impossible. That said, we're going to need more than Broad and Swann to step up.

Records are there to be broken.

Have faith in ye Australian.

If Ponting somehow slimes his way out of yet another Ashes series loss then he is a legend...

 

[King Pietersen]

Fred can't bowl, but his fielding makes up for it. Ponting run out, optimism ftw. Such an excellent throw, Fred is king.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Get fliped Michael Hussey. fearsome tweak off out of this side.

 

[Themer]

Gone what a way to get out when he was playing so well.

 

[aussie1st]

Knew it, what a poor way to get out. All that hard work and Hussey throws Ponting's wicket away.

 

[adthomp]

how the hell do you get run out in a test match ??? ahhhhhhhh dammit

 

[Themer]

Nice to see a standing ovation for Ponting what with this possibly being his last Ashes test in England.

Still Clarke coming in though so I'm still nervous.

 

[Hooper]

Hussey is a dooche.

 

[iridescentt]

Ashes Cricket 09 deja vu.

 

[aussie1st]

Now we have to go through this nervous period with Clarke. OMG looks like another run out.

 

[Themer]

Is it another?

Themer added 0 Minutes and 39 Seconds later...

I think thats out

 

[Gilly Fan]

Now Clarke has ran himself out. What the flip. I didn't know this was Ashes Cricket 2009 the game. Ridiculous running.

 

[King Pietersen]

That's out if you were asking me. Bat's not over the line. 2 run outs in 2 overs?

I Think Thats Out

Pretty much everything we've criticised Ashes Cricket 2009 for being unrealistic has happened in Ashes 2009
