doomy Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Its meant to rain monday and tuesday :thumbsup: But wow, did anyone else check that stat about Anderson? Most Innings without a duck, thats mighty impressive for a tail ender! I reckon Australia will bat the next 2 days ( or as long as they can ) and just give themselves 1-2 days to bowl us out, depending on the weather I love waiting to see if Anderson gets off the mark.. Always tense :) Man... All this talk of Ramprakash playing is funny, I doubt he will though. Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this talk of Ramprakash playing is funny, I doubt he will though. Yeah, although that's how he got injured. Maybe if he'd got a duck... Once he got injured he looked pretty grumpy for the rest of the match, didn't look like he wanted to be there. Anyway whos better than Ramps in the middle order atm, Bopara? LOL, Ian bell... hardly, and Collingwood is not in form.. Ramps has been in form literally for tha last few years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person who wrote it explained that Ramprakash was always an amazing player and he had potential but never looked comfortable in inbternational matches.. And anyway, NZ vs Sri Lanka soon as well :) Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Fray Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I am not a huge fan of test cricket, I am a younger cricket fan who loves the shorter versions of the game. But still the ashes still means a lot to me and I hope that England can somehow pull it off against the Aussies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy_jim Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Seems like Australia will have a very similar team to the last test. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing :-# Really looking forward to the twenty/20's tbh.

warri0r45 Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Damn it. We really blew it in our first innings with the bat... horrible performance from Australia. It's pretty frustrating to see England win since the series is one that could have really gone either way. Does anyone else think Mike Hussey should be dropped? Despite his century to try and save the game, he's not been anywhere near good enough to be a specialist batsman in an Australian cricket team.

doomy Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 This series Australia averaged over 40 and England like 34, the difference was like 6.49 (I think) which is the nhighest ever difference in a series win. Pretty much means Australia screwed up when it mattered :P Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy_jim Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 I suggest locking and removing this shame from public view...:P Good idea :thumbsup: Does anyone else think Mike Hussey should be dropped? Despite his century to try and save the game, he's not been anywhere near good enough to be a specialist batsman in an Australian cricket team. I've been a Brad Hogde supporter for a long time. I think he should've taken over Hussey quite a while ago. That was Husseys first 100 in 30 innings(?), the only reason they kept him was because of his previous performances. I'd rather someone consistently made 50's than Husseys low scores.
