sorry for my previous post but I'm just so happy with this start by England.
I quite understand (deleted by an Australian).

I can't believe this. 3-3 for Australia. What a response from England. Maybe the players were mad they lost the World Cup and directed the anger towards the Australian batsmen?
The good thing is that this really increases the chance of a result in this match.
culmination of the last 2 years of the CAs lesson in how not to organise a transitional period.
What a response from England.
Only problem being that Aus lost the WC as well.

Yeah, but many people thought England had a great chance. I now see that Australia got eliminated in the first round of the World Cup bid as well. So both eliminated World Cup bidders are facing each other.
Anyway, like always, I am expecting an Australian fightback.
Three hours ago I read on cricinfo that a flat pitch awaits. So far I haven't seen any sign of it.
I am expecting Watson to strike the balls and Hussey to dig in.
Typical I miss a great England start while making lunch.
The question is whether it's an advantage to bat last. I don't think it's too good a wicket that it will be.Looks like a good pitch produced not the road that many expected. Strauss was right at the toss and very lucky to lose it now.
What are you having that took 26 minutes to make when the cricket is starting? Surely you need to quickly whip up a sandwhich and run to the TV?
