Now they're out for less than 300!

England probably would have settled for bowling em out for under 400 at the start today.

Now the question is, can England bat well and really really dent the aussies chances?
No. Well done Cook you f*ckwit.
Jesus wept lad are you ever happy?
To be fair, it wasn't the best possible start - he may have a right to be slightly miffed.
True, but I can't recall seeing a positive comment from sjm ever.

Looking almost certain, played three, won one drawn two. Two more washouts (and it could happen) and we win he Ashes back. :D

Just joking, be nice to win them back on merit.

With two more wash out's we would still have won them on merit. We'd have won more games than they did.

Seems a shame, though, that this game is likely to whimper its way to a rain-sodden draw, when we have a good chance of winning it.

Oh well, let's win at Headingley and the Oval

Ponting might still invite us back to his place for the last two. At least we'll get sunshine. :wink:
