*Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

[morgieb]

Who else reckons the game finishes today?

Ballance hasn't looked great out there, Carberry doesn't score more than decent starts and it's often been 5 out all out for England.

Alas, I reckon they'll fight until tomorrow.

And the tail wags like a Manx cats....

And the top order . . .

 

[Jono]

Oh England.

 

[Spark]

This has been a weird, weird day of cricket. Disinterested, almost.

 

[Hooksey]

Carberry gone, and Johnson with 36 wickets (and counting) continues to be the single biggest difference between the two teams.

 

[Jarquis]

Australia couldn't declare without people saying it was disrespectful/an unnecessary gamble - so just batted like dicks.
England can't forfeit (or bat really) - so are just batting like dicks.

 

[Tangles]

Carberry with a start and out again.

 

[wiff]

[Burgey]

This has been a weird, weird day of cricket. Disinterested, almost.

Not from where I'm sitting!

 

[Jono]

Oh England.

Repeat.

 

[Prince EWS]

This has been a weird, weird day of cricket.

You find cricket weird so often that it'd actually be weird if you didn't.

 

[Mark68]

All over today absolutely 100% nailed on. The most emphatic Ashes victory ever? Johnson is in the form of his life with 37 wickets now. England are crumbling now.

 

[Spikey]

51 catches over these two series for Rad Haddin and he continues to be the single biggest difference between the two teams.

 

[Johnners]

wafg.

 

[Jarquis]

Watto would've reviewed

I just don't understand the rush. If evervtgerecwas a time and a place for an AB 600 lead before you think about a declaration moment it was here.

George Bailey has made a difference.

 

[wiff]

Give Rogers a bowl, I reckon he could make a difference.
