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

[Majin]

I suppose the good thing of this is that Gilly might kick off big style now, we could be in for some fun viewing. =D

 

[Slow Love™]

Must be a Welsh thing.... LOL

I'd love to know what that head-slapping of Jones' is about, too.

 

[Burpey]

Damn batting ... I am so frustrated

 

[Tom Halsey]

Lee looks like a real target with the short ball.

 

[Burpey]

Will Vaughan enforce the follow-on ?

 

[Tom Halsey]

Bye bye Gilly.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Amazing catch there. Stick a fork in Australia, they're done.

 

[Majin]

What A Catch Straussy

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

And England is alive.

It's catches like that which make you believe...

 

[Burpey]

What a catch !!!!!

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Will Vaughan enforce the follow-on ?

Given the weather and the memory of the last game, he almost certainly will. England have to make their stand here if they are to win the Ashes. It'll be difficult to beat Australia at the Oval.

 

[Craig]

That is a catch Mark Waugh style.

 

[Slow Love™]

What a catch from Strauss!

*sigh* Gilly just can't get much right this series - Flintoff gets him again.

Oh well, it looked like a proper cricket shot for all those proper cricket shot afficianados out there.

 

[Slow Love™]

Will Vaughan enforce the follow-on ?

Can't see why not, but you never know these days.

Given the weather and the memory of the last game, he almost certainly will. England have to make their stand here if they are to win the Ashes. It'll be difficult to beat Australia at the Oval.

Yep. Even if it means facing Warne on a fifth-day pitch chasing 250 - just checked the forecast and it says sun with some clouds.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Oh well, it looked like a proper cricket shot for all those proper cricket shot afficianados out there.

Yep, nothing wrong with the shot selection at all - the problem is he just can't play Flintoff.

 

[Burpey]

That is a catch Mark Waugh style.

Better than Mark Waugh I would say ... you don't catch those often though

 

[Majin]

Brett Bradman returns

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

I wouldn't enforce if I was Vaughan. If Australia get it together and make 400, that would be a problem.

There's going to be most of 3 days remaining. Bat for a day, beat Australia into submission and then bowl for the Ashes.

Bowled him, a beauty
