  1. Are none of you Poms watching the Cricket?? :wink:
     
  2. Sadly, yes I am :frown: England were lucky not to lose the first, unlucky not to win the second, but looking at it, deserve to get beaten in the third :frown: Won't make too much difference to the ICC world rankings thou :wink:

  3. We're taking a beating :frown:

    Pleased for the Kiwis though - they have played well when it mattered most and will deserve the win if they wrap it up tomorrow.

    England might benefit from a kick up the arse ahead of the Ashes double-header. Still plenty of doubts about the make-up of the side...

    Should still beat the Aussies mind :tongue:
     
  4. Oooohhh, last session and 3 wickets required :eek:
     
  5. 15 overs to go, but just 3 decent deliveries could do it...

    England's tail not got the best reputation, historically!
     
  6. I keep thinking back to those dropped catches :rolleyes:

  9. Yeahhhhhh!!!!!!!

    Barmy Army!....................Barmy Army!..................

  10. Three draws, historically it will be seen as one of the dullest series of the modern era, but what does history know :tongue:

  13. Comes to something when the No 2 ranked test side in the world is ecstatic about just squeezing out a series draw with the 8th ranked team.

    guess we can have our "transition side" excuses ready for the ashes, just in case :rolleyes:

  14. The only thing that matters in cricket is beating the Aussies. Anything else is a "nice to have".
     
  15. Well they just got spanked by the Indians. It doesnt matter what form each side has going into the Ashes, its a whole different type of cricket :tongue:
     
  16. Whats cricket? Never been able to get the rules. Matches last days and you know it will be a draw afyer day 1. Help!!
