Congrats England

[pasag]

Been a good series, were the better side in three of the five matches and it's a win well deserved. Did it without their best batsmen as well, which is a fair effort.

I should feel a lot more devasted but I don't for some reason.

Should just get rid of Siddle and Australia will start winning more matches.

Might want to work on their running between the wickets too :P

 

[Uppercut]

Well done to England. There'll inevitably be a lot of Australian moaning about their side, but it's an inexperienced team on a looong tour miles away from home, and contrary to what their fans would have had you believe pre-series, England are no mugs. Especially at home.

 

[PhoenixFire]

A tad premature perhaps?

 

[Athlai]

Will be entertaining if Australia pull through.

 

[Naumaan]

Australia require another 230 runs with 5 wickets remaining

can't say anything now

 

[Naumaan]

Will be entertaining if Australia pull through.

YEAH, they may spoil eng's party

Errr gents, the match is still alive.

Poor form this, couldn't you wait till the game was actually over?

Piss off, the game's been over for a while.

 

[Naumaan]

now you can say, Congratulations to ENGLAND

The fact is that its not, and you don't need to go around starting threads telling everyone in the forum that it is.

God, you really are an annoying grouch.

God, you really are an annoying grouch.

Honestly, I don't care what you think about my personality, but you don't start a thread when a team is 327/5 congratulating another side for a series victory.

Next time Australia tour India, maybe I'll start a thread at the start of the series saying Well done India on retaining the Border Gavaskar trophy as well.

If you did so with the series all but over in the final Test then I'd have no problems with it. Right now you're just being typically dour and argumentative.

Australia had 0% chance before they set foot in India last time, and Id venture to think that it will be the same again next time as long as Johnson and co are still around and they dont have a half decent specialist spinner.

Nonetheless,I am done with this, I'd much rather be arguing with someone about cricket than someone's thread starting quality.

 

[pasag]

As I said, typically dour and argumentative.

That said, I do agree we have 0 chance against India in India and would struggle against India at home as well, right now.

 

[Bloody Hell]

There's no way Siddle was the worst Oz bowler in this series. Johnson was horrific - even when he was bowling "well" he was ****. Only when compared relatively to how he had been bowling could it been considered "good".

Siddle has looked more likely all series.
