Still 3 days left in the game. If England dont get bowled out by lunch or later it will be interesting to see when Strauss declares.

they will allow trott to get 150+ and prior to 100+ then declare with 500 run lead. eng to win by an innings
RE: The Ashes and Cricket World Cup Discussion Thread - Snooks - 28-12-2010 03:07
Eng 513. So then we have 8 sessions left in the game with a 415 run lead. So the task is set. Should be tougher to bowl them out with the sun out. If England bowl with the same discipline as in the 1st inns the wickets will come but patience is key.

As it turns out, not that tough!!
Only four wickets to go and TWO DAYS to get 'em.Where's this great "Aussie fighting spirit" that we're always hearing about? Who'd be Ricky Ponting about now? There'll be hell to pay when this is over.....

There's not a lot of positives to come out of this match if your Australian
Bowled out cheaply
Only Siddle looking good with the ball
Captain making bad decisions and being childish
Selectors patching over weaknesses
And with the team that they have out. Hughes has batting weaknesses, Ponting and Clarke are both out of form, Smith is neither good enough with the bat (to play at six) or be an international spin bowler, Harris is also not of international quality, and Johnson has sprayed the ball all over the place.
After the match, heads will roll.

aussies 169-6, over by lunch on 4th day

good day again for england, should finish off australia tomorrow and retain the ashes

Its been a good couple of days what with arsenal winning and the cricketers showing the aussies a thing or two.
RE: The Ashes and Cricket World Cup Discussion Thread - bigguy01 - 28-12-2010 13:53
the aussies should open the bowling with siddle. he is far their best bowler at the moment. is good to see hussey out for 0. ponting and the coach should get the sack poor displays against us and the pakistanis in the summer. remember aussies all out for around 80 odd against the pakistanis.

Ponting is on the way out for sure and this team will probably get a few other changes like the spinner situation and the number 6 batsman.
Anyway we've put in a truly great performance in this match. 1st Innings gave our bowlers 'home' conditions and then in this 2nd Innings they have kept up the good work. Over within an hour and a half tops I think tonight (hope so anyway)
