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

[GotSpin]

Mind you, the TV ratings will be extremely interesting here in Aus.

Hayden! Amazing!

Good or bad...?

Australia targetting Giles, and quite rightly. If they hit him out of the attack, that puts even more pressure on Flintoff.

Hayden looking good, he's really concentrated hard today and dealt with the little bit of swing that Hoggard got quite well, and hasn't thrown it away otherwise.

Those were stupid shots really, 6 or out, luckily for Langer they were both 6.

Hope Langer just bides his time against Giles rather than attempting to hit every thing for 6.

Giles bowls enough poor balls not to have to slog him and the field will be well spread following that first over.

Aaah, they only went 20 rows back.

Flintoff it's brilliant, Langer it's stupid?

If you ignore him, perhaps he'll fly away. :P

Good or bad...?

Good to see you back mate.

TV Ratings? Good.
Hayden? Amazing shot. Good.

He hit them pretty well. It will look stupid if he gets out, but I think he's right to go after Giles, especially since he's gotten out defending him several times this series.

 

[Nate]

Because I care - excellent Langer fifty. Superb innings, I hope. =P

You obviously haven't bothered to read anything in this thread during your time of ranting about the world conspiring against an outplayed team getting beat 2-1. Go look at the reactions when Pietersen goes the six or out route.

 

[Kweek]

whats with the Echo on channel 4?

 

[Nate]

I really hope the rain holds off. Brilliant series, let there be a result.

 

[Nate]

Giles got smacked... so we`ll put on Bell?

Make a fool of me son.

Perhaps if you actually had a clue about cricket instead of just watching to see who's got the best backside someone might bother to value your opinion.

Score a point for Langer!

It's Collingwood though.

 

[Linda]

That slo-mo was just..... ooh er.

Yeah yeah, Ive heard that before. Lighten up.

This coming from the guy who can't accept that the opposition ever does anything right? You're a good one to criticise others about having a narrow understanding of the game.

Also not a particularly kosher comment given that you're clearly dismissing her opinion solely because she's female.

T`was eh? His movement down the pitch was more of a... I dunno! He didn`t seem to walk, just... move?
