Anyway, we should at least draw if not win. McGrath will get another michelle and it will be 1-0
Where is the possibility of a draw [the English weather is fine]? There's three days to play and 1 and a bit innings to go [with low scores], it'll finish early tomorow night - if not tonight.

fave players? gilchrist = best batsmen to watch in action. and i like watching both lee and mcgrath bowling in sync, they have been described as (and i love this phrase) as the "Meteor and Mentronome".

Actually there's a chance of rain today and supposed to rain tomorrow. But weather forecasters have known to be wrong once in a while. I feel ur right and there will be a result possibly today.

Yeah otay, I think the weather will be fine, and we will probably see the finsih at about 9pm tomorow, so we can watch le finale stage le Tour in peace.

As for fave players - fuck Australia man, but since this is an Australian cricket thread, I'll go Katich - bloody legend. And Haddin. Haddin is a champ. He has a chat with everyone from the members every Pura game.

yea we're in a good position


but england r gonna hav like 2 and a half days - half a test match - to score 400ish

i dunno y teams never seem 2 pace themselves wen they get into this position


but go aussies
i was thinkin the same thing but like one of the commentators said yesterday, that's gonna be like 200 overs to have to concentrate, and there are bound to be mistakes made and at least 10 wicket taking balls. Even when we score 600+ we do it in less than 2 days.

When ur playing cricket, its all about bashing ur way to win, that is why u see a lot of players getting out on 99 playing big shots cause that's the video they will see over and over again in the news, needs to look good
haha, yeah its pretty stupid that they do it but that's how it is.

Pietersen looks to be the thorn in the englands batting, he seems like the only one who knows how to play the aust bowlers :|

I hope there are a few spinning pitches coming up, i wanna see warne and mcgill in tandum.

im a fan of lee's attitude- he seems to love stirring the batsmen, ruffling their feathers.
makes for entertaining cricket

I think you are a cricketing genius.

Warne = 3 wickets. Lee = 2 wickets. England = 5/156

- That is all.
