I'm stunned.  :o
At least it can't be another whitewash !

At least for Australia anyway, let's call that first test a head start. Anyhoo it's back on a gain so more late nights for me, unless the English put up a fight again and I go to bed early  ;)

Anyone want me to lock this thread before Upgraydd has a chance to 'have a gloat'..... ;)

If we make 68-ao, I would be shocked!
People with tickets for Sunday must be miffed, they're not going to get to use them!

Don't panic Mr Mainwaring :)

Plenty of cricket left to play yet in this test let alone the series. The Aussies play their best cricket after an upset.

Just a game, chaps. And a jolly dull one too, what?

Proof again that the Aussies don't like typical English Summers and England play better with a partizan crowd behind them.

Plenty more Cricket left in this game and the series.....

After two days of the third test......
I was thinking of putting a £1 on an Australian win......But not at the feeble odds the bookies are quoting.
They really don't trust England not to implode.......Even from this advantageous position.

I'm amazed at how poor both sides have been in this match with regards to batting. It does make for an interesting match but anyone with tickets for the weekend will be mightily peeved, given the likely finish today.

Nosher

People with tickets for day four/five get full refunds.

I dont think theyll care one iota when we go 2-1 up :D

Thanks for the info Nosher. If the Aussies build a lead of 130 plus, it could make for a tense finish to the match given both sides batting form...

Nosher

Dearie me Australia. Beaten by eight wickets in just over 2 & 1/2 days....

English Optimism 2 - Austrailian Smugness 1.

Bring on Trent Bridge.
