    Remember, S. Jones is injured, though will bat.

    England win by 3 wickets!!! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,498 ✭✭✭Mothman


    How this match turned into a cliff hanger is a mystery to me.

    But that's Cricket...

    england just seem to have trouble finishing off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Phew! :D

    England were far too impatient and Austrailia are really going to miss Warne when he finally goes.

    Another incredible test match, how nerve wracking was that? three hours of hell

    Huge credit to Hoggard and Giles at the end but why was it so bloody close :eek:

    Off to get drunk :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    wow.....england made really hard work of that.

    Think Australia will really suffer once warne goes.....he really is a once in a lifetime bowler

    You cant say they will suffer, England dont even have a real spinner in the team.

    Giles doesnt turn the ball at all.

    What channel did you guys watch the cricket on?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,732 ✭✭✭✭DMC


    Channel 4.

    /me offers Michael Vaughan the services of Michael Fish for 5 days next week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,968 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Well I for one hope the weather is set fair and England get the chance to win the series by finnishing off the Aussies properly, not getting a bail-out by the rain. Yes I know I'm tempting fate big time.

    Mike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 545 ✭✭✭cgf


    Yep - fair play to ~England - they well deserve their 2-1

    Be interesting to what approach the Aussies take to the final test - it is quite a while since they have had to come from behind in an Ashes series - a real test of character for them - good chance England to win Ashes 3-1 - what odd on that earlier in the year??
