Bye Bye Ashes .

 

[Drifterwood]

What an unbelievable day.

I'm not calling this now till the fat lady sings. Oval conventional wisdom is pretty much on its head.

 

[sneakyd]

We may not be much chop at cricket or rugby , but by crikey we are good at throwing stuff , jumping high & long ( two gold , one bronze , World Athletics Championships ) :biggrin1: .
That Trott fellow did well on debut !

 

[Drifterwood]

It always used to amuse me to tell my US mates that we have this great game that we play for five days, and more often than not it ends in a draw. Some maybe thought of the AD revenue but most think we are fucking nuts.

Well, you can call me on this, but this whole series boiled down to a spell of twenty one balls by Stuart Broad. Twenty five scheduled days, decided in twenty minutes. Life eh?

 

[sneakyd]

Congratulations to England .
Stuart Broad has better figures , than Freddy at the same stage of his career .

Well you did a good job of throwing away the Ashes :biggrin1:

I just hope your Mr Hussey doesb't think he needs to run his captain out every time he gets a century :biggrin1:

[Catchoftheday]

Come on England....ooops..... good start

 

[Catchoftheday]

....and a happy birthday to Mr Siddle a six wickets including a hat trick, I think that could be classed as a little over generous.

OK I'm talking to myself here:redface:

 

[Catchoftheday]

Fuck Fuck and then Fuck

 

[Catchoftheday]

OK one draw and who is going to put money on a result in the second?


:tongue:

 

[Catchoftheday]

OK seconds out - round two



if someone else wants to join in.. :frown1:

 

[Catchoftheday]

WTF

 

[Drifterwood]

300 for less than four by the close today and I think we may just have dismantld the Aussie myth.

 

[Catchoftheday]

This game is getting about as one sided as this thread...nice to see KP knocking a few :biggrin1:

 

[Drifterwood]

Indeed, let's hope it doesn't go to his head and he can repeat it a few more times. He should given the Aussie attack at the moment.

So will we break them down tomorrow for a very important series lead?

 

[Catchoftheday]

Yeah no problem, probably before Lunch :biggrin1:

I think they will find it hard to come back from that one, they didn't really get into the game at any point.

It's Mystic Meg

Ricky P knows that they are weaker in every department and playing worse. How can you see them bowling us out twice to actually win a game? If they lose the belief that they can, we could take this three nil.

 

[Hoss]

What are they doing, playing the Ashes in WALES

Ash trees in competitive sports? Must be a British thing.:biggrin1:.
