Or is this it :D

England currently 102 for 3, Pietersen & Collingwood in.

Who fancies England?

was discussing this with the gaffer, and it turns out the only bowler in the aussie side i know isnt even playing in this test :anguish:

This must be it.

Horrid start for England.

not at all, thats the usual start for an England batting side (tu)

Having three out before 120 is a horrid start for anyone, especially on a pitch that suits them.

im only jesting , it is an awful start but one i expected as England have been fairly poor with the bat all season (tu)

i honeslty couldn't give a fuck, worse sport imagineable, and there it too much hype over this particular match :anguish:

Why open the thread then, never mind posting on it?

Anyway Pietersen & Collingwood have 100+ partnership, 194 for 3.

Better session there.

Both Pieterson and Collingwood past fifty.

I reckon England have too much for the Aussies this time, especially in the bowling. The aussies don't even have a full time spinner on a wicket that will more than likely turn quite dramatically.

Love cricket. Support Surrey (for my sins).

Didn't know how much interest would be on here.

Stream: its a bit blocky and a few seconds out but its bearable:

Thoughts so far:

love the appealing from the English crowd after the ball goes nowhere near the bat. craphead2.gif

Excellent session and right in the game now. By the sounds of it nothing much to fear in the bowling or the pitch. We need KP to stay calm and not try anything silly after tea.

I could see both KP and Colly making centuries if they don't get out in the ten mins or so after tea.

While I'm not a fan of the posh grown up rounders, :mutley: can anyone tell why the first game is in Wales?

I know there's an England and Wales Cricket Board but it is England vs Australia? <cr>

Probably a good game to watch if you are a road cone, but there you go it takes all kinds. Maybe if I knew the rules it would be better ! :sherlock:

Don't say im not good to you! Happy reading :D

On a side note did you know that in the Hitchhiker's Guide etc, '42' was chosen as the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything because that is the number of rules in Cricket?

Another 1 bites the dust. Pieterson out. Flintoff in!

I hope flintoff has had a few jars before taking to the batting. That is the only thing I think that culd make this shite interesting.

What I hate is how a team can be getting hammered then they pray for rain to get a draw! What kind of fucking sport is that? :rolleyes:

That was a ridiculous attempt from KP!

What was he thinking? You can't sweep with a top edge.

As good as Pieterson is does anyone else get the impression he just gets bored out there? In a test match he gets frustrated taking dott balls and he just goes for it. He has a bad habbit of going for a 6 to get to 100 aswel and gets caught out close to a milestone often.
