Well the team is actually the England and Wales Cricket Board XI, so I'd guess most of them would support the team. Not sure how popular it is in Wales, but I'd guess that Rugby and Football are both more popular than Cricket.

The Welsh have always detested the English ever since we turned over some upstart called Owain Glyndwr back in the Middle Ages - it didn't endear us to them when we then banished a whole lot of their worst folk who had to go elsewhere and set up some community they, unimaginatively proceeded to call New South Wales ............... not quite sure where it was now but anyway .................

It was more of a case of the batsmen playing very disciplined cricket. On a pitch such as the one dealt out for this game the quick bowlers don't have much help, and the spinners can find it tough too as it was slow enough for the batsmen to play back and not risk their wicket.
I would say that it was more of a case of Australian batmen simply being too good on the day for the English bowling attack.
lol @ England's patheticness, Bopara got a rough one, Cook was hopeless. Not expecting KP to do much, Strauss and Collingwood the men here. That rain in the last session may have saved England, but can't see England batting through the day without at least one collapse, my money would be on the Aussies.

A lot to smile about....a triple smile after watching the first four days of play. I cannot wait for day 5. All the best to the smiling Aussie fans.

The Australian batting has done its job, and now its upto the bowlers, they did a fair job picking 2 wickets yesterday itself, so if somehow we can get a full day's cricket today, then things could really get interesting.
Expecting a brutal match-winning spell from Siddle, he was getting most movement out of this deck in the first innings, and if he somehow gets his radar fixed, he could run through the English batting line-up.
