I'll be chuffed to bits if ENG win The Ashes sometime today/tomorrow but what a anti climax damp squib of a series if thats the case. Where's the fire of 2005, the passion, this shit aint going to inspire any kids from either nation to take the game up.
Either ENG or STRAYER have been shit. Whoever has won first day has gone on to win the test, so far. Cant see that changing now, obvs.

In my lifetime ENG have been dished some fucking hidings by Strayer big time. I honestly thought this series, this summer infact was going to be shit for us.
I hope this game ends today before I take to the field tomorrow and before Sundays game, for once I can keep up with the excitement.
Who else can Strayer pick, who can they turn to, I see a lot of retirements coming up after this tour. I like Clarke but I think he'll walk

They should make that Extras guy captain he was top scorer in that innings...
I like that meme doing the rounds, along the lines of:
Clarke: Should I bat or bowl on the first day
Cook: Why not do both
Clarke: Should I bat or bowl on the first day
Cook: Why not do both
I don't care too much who won, its all taken much too seriously, I'm just glad I won't have to listen to Clarke, Johnson, Warner etc crowing and sneering for a while. Its a form of bliss.

Clarke is tops. Johnson is a tool. I think warner has changed for the better
That speech Clarke gave at Phil Hughes funeral was very moving, I liked him before that but I just think he's a top man and a very good cricketer. He dosent like the short ball and if it plays on his mind what happened then fair enough. Dont matter how much coaching you have he isnt a robot.
I dont like Mitch Johnson but thats because he's very good and horrible at what he does, I think he's misunderstood.
Warner I cant stand, thats only because he hit Roooooooot and has a stupid rat under his nose.

It is possible to be good without being nasty, I think they're all pricks.

So how I see it, the Ashes were won/lost with the toss of the coin in the first test.
1 semi close game going to the team who won the toss, then 4 massacres going 2:2.

Not too differnt to the last time AUS were over here, the rain saved England once or twice andENG won The Ahses then.
Yeh, an interesting stat for the last 7 series.
England 5:2 for series wins
Australia 15:13 for games won.

The people at the Gabba dont like batting but the people in Abu Dhabi Doooooooooooooooooooo
Aus vs NZ at Adelaide was a bit unlucky for NZ, two rubbish third umpire decision threw the whole thing.
Some spectacular near catches, and the last 15 minutes were totally unexpected.
Best of all - I WAS THERE!

Was The Toss a huge factor of the result? In other words who gets to bat more in daylight?
They are scrapping The Toss in county games next season, the travelling captain can decide if he wants to bat or bowl first and if he declines then they will toss a coin.
Its ment to encourage spinners they reckon
