It's over. Ashes are gone.

Gilchrist's knock was superb though. Second fastest ton in test cricket history. Some amazing shots....

End of play day 4. England 265-5

We need 292 to win. Pieterson and Flintoff in bat.

Awesome bowling by McGrath to dismiss Cook (116) and Hoggard (0) in the last 15 mins of the day.

Can we do it?

Ran course there going ahead mate - were going for 5-0 now, nothing like consistency

Just got back from the ground now, at least Freddy gave us some fireworks before lunch but it was a big ask on day 5 - just a pity we didn't pick Monty from the 1st test & prepared Harmison better too - also think its time Jones was fuckd off now too, hes had another chance and failed.

Geraint Jones can be got rid of as well. No.6 batsman and he was out for 0 again.

shame to see them get beat so convincingly in the series, hope its not a whitewash but cant see england winning any. in a way its prob good that this has happened as its proved that england are not a good team and its time for changes. fair enough there has been a few injuries but they still should have played better than they have.
