Am I the only person here who thinks that Wellsy is extremely similar to the strangely missing Blaydon?

Mancy reckoned I was being paranoid.

Is this reverse psychology you're employing here? JOKE!

Anyway, even if you are Blaydon we kissed and made up a while ago :razz:

Now they're all out for 190. Full credit to the Aussies, but they're not playing against a team - just a bunch of (admittidly very talented) individuals. A great team ethic was one of the reasons England beat them. Also politics have affected selection - with the batting they have there is no need to include 6 bats AND Freddie at the expense of Pollock.

Nail on head. Wellsy, no one really cares about this series outside of Australia tbh.

I always thought the aussies would win the one dayers and the test because as has been mentioned they are just a group of players thrown together who don't play in a team normally and who it won't mean as much to, whereas the aussies were itching to beat anybody they could get a shot at after the ashes and a world XI would do them nicely.

 

I read in the paper that Flintoff had bottles thrown at him by the crowd, still bitter about the ahses then and thats behaviour the aussies make a massive fuss about when it happens to them in Pakistan or India, so i fully expect their captain and players to condemn their own crowd. :yes

Harmy and Fred take three wickets each as Australia go from 152-1 to 199 all out! :yes

 

ROW need 354 to win but are 25-2 overnight.

Good to see Harmy and Freddie continuing the English superiority over the aussies even if the rest of the world can't quite match them :nufc:

 

Shame that its not a smaller run chase as it could be an exciting finish, but with McGrath, Warne and some batsmen in poor form i can't see them getting that close, unless a Lara or somebody just has one of those days where they are untouchable.

aussie fans apparantly been throwing stuff at Freddy and Muttiah.... twats! gladly say i was delighted to see Graeme Smith get out for 0 in the 2nd innings, Sehwag's dismissal was just a truly lazy shot
