***Official*** Australia in England (The Ashes)

Two away from the extra half-hour now. All up to Gilly, very impressed with Pup again he's gonna be a thorn in our side for years to come.

20 minutes to stumps now, could well be game if England get another one, with room for a Gilchrist miracle if they don't. England should certainly win from here though.

That's the key wicket. Not confident about having Gilchrist in so early in the innings or so late in the day. Australia need a lot to go their way to win from here.

Katich gone... Giles strikes. Enter Gilchrist.
Hm, first dismissal that sounded like it really deceived the batsman (apart from Freddie, that is). Anyone else agree?

Anyway, Gilly's gonna have to play one hell of an innings.

Jesus these blokes are getting out to some poor strokes man F**k, Australia your not giving me any confidence, well Gilly you have to play one of your great innings here :sleep:

This would have been an opportune moment for Gillespie, surely. Considering how Gilchrist often struggles early in his innings with spin, and Flintoff's recent record against him.

Maybe, just maybe, it's because Gilo is bowling well.

I dunno. Sheer supposition. 8-)
Well he's bowled fairly poorly so far in this innings, too many full half-volleys, but the conditions are there for him against the left handers and once he got a few in the right area it was only a matter of time really.

How can a player like Katich get out to Giles? That's like my sister getting me out, drunk.
Perhaps he's not as bad as everyone has made out?

I hope Terry Alderman's not anywhere near the hotel tonight, you'll need to ship out a whole new squad. Anyone know where the nearest gallows is to Edgbaston - Warwick Castle?
