They only won the last one by fluke and doctored wickets so status quo is back to normal.

They only won the last one by fluke .

No. I don't agree with that.

They were the better team in that series and deserved to win.

However, it was a giant kick in the pants and a wake up call for the Oz team and I reckon that they are out to redeem themselves this time around.

[Grunt]

Yeah, I agree. I think the Aussies went to England thinking that that had it won already, especially after trouncing the Poms in the 1st test.

[bennylaird]

As you say, was just lucky we didn't take them seriously, so a bit of a fluke.

As well as help from their pitches.

Do we go to 90 overs or do we finish at 6:00pm?

If we go to 90 overs then I reckon we are looking at 4/345 - Ponting 114 n.o. Clark (with an E) 9 n.o.

And that's a lovely Captain's Knock (so far...)

Nice ton, Punter!

Quick, someone check up on Midge, he might be suicidal now that Hayden is out.

Nah, I'm over it.

Besides, have you seen the size of his ego?

[bitingmidge]

On the strength of today's performance so far, I'll predict Australia 5:0.

Unlesss the weather intervenes and then it'll be Australia 4:0.

Dunno craig, England are going to have to lift their act if they are going to get that "0".

As Kerry just reminded me, it's still Nil all.

Cheers,

Heyden ?

[Grunt]

Besides, have you seen the size of his ego?

No, I've never seen him naked.

[Rocker]

If we go to 90 overs then I reckon we are looking at 4/345 - Ponting 114 n.o. Clark (with an E) 9 n.o.

Hmm, not a bad prediction, just a tad pessimistic, though. 3/346 was the score at stumps.

How about tomorrow the poms get "Freddie" to bowl at both ends?

He seems to be all that they've got.

[bitingmidge]

England won the toss because they're good at it. The tossers.

At lunch they are 3 for 82.

Note to file:

Grunt is not the best tipster.
