Battle of the Test Matches

[Shaggy Alfresco]

Sri Lanka vs England

 

[adharcric]

Bangladesh vs Australia at Fatullah.

 

[Burgey]

Tough round actually.

Sarfraz's spell the stuff of legend, SL v England a great game too, while the Bangers jumped up and nearly bit the Aussies on the ass.

Hmmm. Gonna go Pakistan v Aus, even though theat Aussie side was meh.

 

[nightprowler10]

Pak vs Aus.

 

[GIMH]

Bang-Aus

 

[pasag]

Pakistan v Australia. Don't rate the Bangladesh match that highly tbh.

 

[GIMH]

Spot the Australian

 

[Bouncer]

Pak v Aus....even though BAng-AUs game was a good one but every one knew that Aussies were going to pull that one off...BD did give them scare but at the end Aussies were too good...and the game was won by stronger team and not the under dog

Pak-Aus game on the other hand was won by the under dog in that game and how can u forget the first big display of reverse swing bowling by sarfraz when he bowled the remarkable spell of 33 deliveries in which he captured 7 wickets for 1 run ....thats coming from behind!

So what will happen when the first round ends...are we going to take the winners from first round and have battle between those games?

Yes, and keep doing rounds until we have one winner.

That's the idea, yes. Three battles remaining.

The Fatullah near-upset goes through with eight of the 14 votes, leaving Sarfraz and Hussain by the wayside.

The next match-up features two matches where England were undone for the first time, and one where Australia gave up supremacy...

The Oval is probably the most famous overseas Indian victory (we haven't had too many of those). So I'll go England vs. India, Oval
