Sadly for Aus, Eng won't make a declearation so they will have to do all the work.

Just heard a classic on Sky news and it went something like this...
Sky news interviewer: Geraint its sky news have you got a word for us
Paul Collingwood: yes my name is Paul

ROFL :rtfl

A series to be decided by rain sucks ass

how quickly people forget old traford..60+ over lost to rain..Aussie's hang on by 1wkt after an England declaration..

The weather has kept the series alive.

Lets have a spread bet on how many overs people think will be bowled today..

I'll start with (a generous) 45 overs. (2-3hrs play)

[sachin]

[FreddieFan]

Well, yes, we have had the rub of the green this series, but its the first time for about 20 years - it is our turn after all!

 

[sachin]

But that would take some of the gloss off any ashes victory.

 

[squiz]

Langer makes his first ton for the tour, easily the standout batsman for the Australians and one of the best batsman on the tour from both teams

Langer notches us his 7000th run in test cricket

 

[aussie1st]

And Harmison bowls him. At last a good opening stand by our openers
What do you know rain has stopped play again.

 

[gold639]

Langer's out.

And it's started raining again :
