I know fucking karate
now 4 for Broad
I know fucking karate
I'm about 5 mins drive from CCFC stadium, went there to exchange a shirt the mrs had got for me, they got big screens behind the counter, I look up and its 97-4. Perhaps I should fuck off out again?
Aaaaaaaaaand another one. North's out LBW. 5 down.
5-26 Well done Stuart Broad
So what do you think then, make the Aussies follow on or bat again? I don't know tbh, I say pressure the Aussies. Make them follow on. It's only day 2 or some shit.
If the pitch starts falling apart though, which it looks like it is by the way, then you'd want to get your batting out of the way before it really turns to shit on day 4-5

112-7 now

It's not out of England's reach to snatch a defeat or a draw from the jaws of victory.justice wrote:

Make them bat again and hope to get another 2 by the end of the day.Mekstizzle wrote:

39 overs left.
Depends on tonight, you may not get much if any cricket on Sunday mate, this has swung more a dodgy middle aged couple from Dudley.justice wrote:

Wow. What a disgraceful piece of batting by Australia. That was embarrassing. 10 Wickets for 87 Runs....
ergh.
ergh.
everything i write is a ramble and should not be taken seriously.... seriously. ♥
I'm somewhat glad i couldn't watch the cricket last night.
Probably would have been too painful.

In fact, we're normally pretty skilled at that.Mekstizzle wrote:

England 96/3, leading by 268 runs.
Strauss on 48 not out, could prove to be an interesting day....

200-6. 372 lead atm. What say you, bf2s. If we can get to around 450 before we lose all 10 wickets, that'd be quite alot. Not a completely comfortable margin, but a winnable margin indeed.
It depends on the wicket.
Judging by what I'm hearing on the radio commentary there's no real mention of the pitch deteriorating any further? With two days and a 450 target it's not inconceivable that Australia could do it.....or at least bat out a draw...

Yeah but a run chase that large would be an all time record breaking effort! Add in the fact that the pitch seems to be turning to dust and I think the only real possible outcomes are an England victory or a draw.Slarty wrote:

The only way this is going to be a draw, is rain. Theres no way you can bat for over 2 days and not get 500 runs.
Not a bad 2nd innings at all. 546 to win the ashes for the Aussies (or, more likely, 1 hour and 2 days to bat out a draw to retain the ashes... lulz)
It's all England's to win. Get one or two wickets today and it'll be almost a shoe in, almost.
I say... Australia all out for around 400. I dunno. Haven't really been listening to the pitch conditions.

This could be quite exciting. A big score for Australia to chase, but it's not unattainable. England look to be on top right now, but the Aussies are opening well. Could end up being a close run chase with the tail enders really needing to pull their weight....
The pitch is close to a dirt highwayMekstizzle wrote:
