Anyone on here interested?

England are 197-3. just resumed play after tea

 

Go England !

 

Think they have done well after lunch was a bit dissapointed at 97-3.

Colly and KP have done well since then and are making runs at a decent pace.

cant complain!

 

dont talk to me about the cricket took me an hour to get to work this morning cardiff city centre was heeving........

 

Not being all out on the first day is a good start I suppose.

Still, have a good chance this year with a lot of the Aussie old boys giving up.

 

could be close this series, theres a few unknown aussys in this squad so its 50/50

 

Indeed Graham. No Shane Warne playing is a bonus for us. Where is Bret Lee.

Not sure what KP was up too getting himself out like that

 

why does the cricket season never end and why is there so many 1 day interantional? does anyone actually like cricket?

 

Because its played throughout the world so winter time here is summer time down under etc. Yes i like cricket, thats whay i started the thread. I know Porkie and Rich Pon also like it and thats about it out of 45000 members on here

and tangowhateversierra bloke likes cricket as well

 

cause they're more "exciting" and pull the punters in. same for the evening 20/20's.

And yes. When we're winning.

 

going to be a close one this , hopefully in the morning and get as close to 400 as posible, then jimmy and the lads can go to work

 

Cricket. wtf.

 

Sad thing is, I could happily sit there for 5 days watching it, stacked up with cold beer.

 

Deep Joy.

4th test. England 72-6 at lunch

 

+1
what the fucking fuck, for a minority sport that hardly any cunt outwith a few countys in england knows the rules for its fucking everywhere

 

i have nothing against cricket,i just dislike any game that includes balls.good luck to england tho!

 

Cracking game is cricket. It's a drinkers game to be honest.

Anyway - shit day so far.

 

What's gone wrong?!

Still, even if we lose this test, it's no worse than another draw because we'll have to win the final test to bring back the Ashes anyway!

 

how depressing

 

u missed me out rich, embarassing day

 

just got in and flicked it on to see Australia 63-1. thought bloody hell thats a slow day. Took awhile to realise England have come and gone already

 

Getting better. 152-4. Wonder if we can get em out for not much over 200?

 

Kinda like haggis hurling , but with a bat!

 

GO ENGLAND!!! Think they will have it if they manage a the rest of the day!

 

5th test day

Aussies 110-6. Such a shame. They trail by 222

Go England

 

Best make that 111-7.

5 wickets for Broad. 5-26. amazing stuff

Can we really regain the Ashes

 

what if it rains? is it a draw?

 

there is another 3 days to go after this so not worrying about the weather or a draw yet. We are well on top at the moment.

 

Great stuff! So nervous now though! Hope we can see it through!

 

Australia 160 all out!

England lead my 172 and are currently 2 without loss in their second innings. If they can get 250 ish at least by tomorrow night, there's no way Australia will get 380 in a 4th innings at the Oval.

Stay away rain!

 

the way we have started our 2nd innings we will be lucky to get triple figures, 39-3 atm

we carn't do anything the easy way

 

Exactly what I feared!

Going to throw it away unless someone steps upto the plate now.

 

51-3 : Strauss still there - keep going until the close boy!

Collingwood's dismissal was a no ball - bloody umpire missed it.


England 230 ahead at stumps.

 

need over 250 tomorrow really!

 

157-4

329 lead,

got to of hurt that hit to the face

 

Jonathan Trott

 

cant see us losing now

 

Not bad at all from England, Criminals need 546 to win .... And we have 2 days to bowl them out, get in!!

 

Perfect time to declare I think too. Only the weather could lead to any chance of a draw now.

 

Was hoping we could get a wicket or two before close of play today, but it's still ok. Still a long way to go for them yet!
