Looks like somebody is getting a little nervous.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway, you shouldn't worry the way it's going bad light will stop play before any rain does. All England need to do is bat out tomorrow and they'll win comfortably.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But, if it does rain that will be one of the greatest anti-climaxes in sporting history. So hopefully the weather and light will stay good and England will have to work for the victory.

I'll be perfectly honest. As much as I'd love England to win, the nature that is this incredible series, if Australia won this test and drew overall I wouldn't be too downheartened. It's been such an epic series and a real joy to watch.

 

 

 

My hat goes off to both of the teams. Nice one lads! :P

This is why i hate english cricket surporters.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope Warne Rip's through you guys.....

Well, i know Australia's the much better team, so i'm comforted by that :) A few bad tests, oh well, we're still better :wink:

No, i hate the rain...I think a match should be played untill both teams have batted two times.. forget 5 days.. make it 2 inning's...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even if you do win this test series.. it will be because of flintoff... you guys are a one man team..

England has done a lot and really shown how good they can be. But I agree with Dontknowyet about England being a one-man team. Although the media hasn't done us much justice lately either :-?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyhow, You English should be proud of getting yourself into a position like this to begin with. Taking the Ashes would be the icing on the cake. I can't remember a time when the series was this close, so well done England ;)

I brought in a portable TV to work today so that I can watch it. I'd like us to win properly but in all reality I dont think we can bat for 200 in the first hour and then bowl out the Aussies lol. It'll be a draw most likely but at least I hope England play for it rather than being all defensive and slow hoping for rain.

Excuse me did Flintoff get 5 wickets in the last test? Those 4 wickets by hoggard yesterday were nothing? How about the 140 runs by strauss? Or the 170 By Vaughan? 1 man team? I could very much say the same about Shane Warne.

You English people got it all wrong. Us Austrlians got together and said isn't it about time with let the English win the Ashes for once. So thats why Australia is letting you win the Ashes. So you guys don't feel so bad.

permanantley muted for offensive language! pwnd some noobs though XD

Noone is letting anyone win. If england win then we deserve it. Australia is the best team in the world and you just got 2 wicket in two balls against England just now. But if we draw or win and we get the Ashes then we deserved it 100%.

English Cricket never won Ashes for over 15 years. They really need win it. Ok?

Australia are guna win, england 5 down at lunch with 70 overs left in the day

We are beating you by 133 runs with 5 wickets to go. Theres about 6 hours left until end of play im guessing by last nights cloudyness. Auz still has to knock down 5 wickets AND get at least 200 runs to be safe. Its most likely that the game will draw and England gets the ashes.

lmao you don't realise how much 70 overs is, england will hardly get over 200, and autralia get to decide if they want to go of for bad light since they will be batting then and they will choose not to.

don't "lmao" me. I know how cricket works. All im saying is dont be so big headed about the aussies winning because its going to be a close match. and just remember that a draw is all we need to take those ashes away from you.

I thought if we draw the Aussies keep the ashes? no?

If you drew the whole thing yes. But not the test. So far England have won twice, and the aussies have won once with the remaining tests at a draw. you get no points for a draw which means currently the score is England 2 - 1 Australia. Therefor if this game is a draw the score remains the same and England win overall. The only way for the Aussies to keep the ashes is to win todays test to bring the score to 2 - 2 and draw overall.

lol we are doing alright atm, if we can geep up the runs for another hour then we should be ok. if the aussies have to get 200+ runs in the last session (after tea) then we might even bowl them all out as they get desperate towards close of play
