England in Australia

You can tell the Aussies are desperate for revenge, 83-5, and the greatest leg-spinner of all time is warming up. Please give us mercy!
 
They'll have to give him an over, because we'll be all out soon.
 
Frankly I'm just embarrassed. 83/5 is incredibly poor on any track, let alone one where your opponents just made 600 and declared.
I'd like to apologise to all the Aussie fans on behalf on my country for this abject shambles we're pretending to call cricket.

@ Sylvester - no-ball was on the Fred wicket.
 
We haven't even hit a boundary yet. Or at least a meaningful one.

That McGrath wicket was a shocking decision. It'll probably even out at Adelaide though. One of Harmy's no-ball's will probably get a wicket.

Oh great! Slats is in the commentary box. :)

Oh no! Warne is on. :(
 
There are runs in it, for sure, but this is what happens when more than one player bowls well on a good pitch. You see the constant pressure and the pitch offers enough to work with that results can be produced.

Now, lets see if Warne completes the equation.
 
England miss Trescothick & Vaughan.

I just hope Australia continue this throughout the series and absolutely try to demolish the English. Not just settle for some 3-0 win.

Oh ok surprised there wasn't more of a blow up by Nicholson then.
 
Well he's already ripped one past Bell's bat. Good batting to get off strike, I fear we are going to be severly embarrased this winter, we're 84-5 without even Warne bowling. If you remember in 2005, when Warne came on we were usually about 1 or at the most 2 down (apart from Lords) and he would take wickets. Warne will make light work of the tail.
 
Warne will get a hat-trick n pretty much tie the game up :(

Ahh well, look what happened in 2005, we lost the first, murdered them in all the rest of the games.....

By the by, this is me looking positive, truely, i think on this display 6-0 is even possible for Australia!

A 2 run victory, a failure to bowl out 10 and 11, a 3 wicket scrape home and a rain effected draw is hardly murder is it?

I think we'll win one test match in this series though. Probably Sydney again in the deadest of dead rubbers.

Difference is you are not in England with Jones and Vaughan.
Bell edges Warne, oh the fun begins :)
