The Official Ashes 2013 Thread - ENG vs AUS

Harris is on fire - 7/105.

England are 9 down and could have been all out but for a drop.
 
Smith digging himself a hole to crawl into....
 
Aussies are chasing 299 to win. Plenty of time left to do it. Do they have the tinaniums though?

I suspect we'll see the usual 30/3 crap, and they'll end up about 100 short...
 
1.55pm BSTDefinitely stopped raining now and there is some movement from the groundstaff. Just depends how long it takes to remove these large puddles. The Supersopper is busy at work.

1.45pm BST Better news, it's brighter and looks like the rain has relented, the umpires are having a look now but quite a good dump of water came down, there are large puddles on the covers.

1.35pm BST Hello again everyone, quick update on the weather. I did mention there were heavy showers around today and one has struck so the covers are on, umbrellas are up, and there isn't going to be a start on time for the afternoon session unfortunately, I'll keep you posted.

2.10pm BST Well it looked a bit better but unfortunately another shower has come over the ground so the brollies are back up and the covers have been pinned down again. There are several of these heavy showers in the area so it's just a case of waiting for a good gap in the weather to get the covers off. But if luck's against us it could be a very frustrating afternoon.
 
Good news, everything is drying out and we're going to restart at 2.50pm BST. This delay means we can now go on to 7pm to get as many overs in as possible today.
 
No doubts about the FACT that those worthless pieces of English/SA **** aka the Pommies are praying silently for rain right now :D

England 238 & 330

Australia 270 & 144/1 (38.3 ov)

And the match swings back in the Poms favour

Broad on fire but not in the way a few here would like. Good stuff.
 
109,38,21,6, 1 partnerships

This ashes series is a big joke! Probably the worst one in the entire history of cricket. I will punch anyone in the face if they think that the despicable pommies are truly the no.1 test side right now.

You know what irritates me the most? It's a fact that the pommies have a lot of our own homegrown cricketers who are very talented like KP, Trott, etc on their side. They are one of the main reasons why they won a lot of test matches at their own backyards :mad:
 
Saksham: "I think that this should be Watson's last test match. He has been persisted for a long time but even after 45 tests he has only 2 centuries and has hardly made any match winning contributions with the ball. He has a lot of technical defeciencies and cant play a straight ball. Plus he is very injury prone and is 32 years old so I see no reason to keep on selecting him"

This!!!! Watto should stick to playing T20/ODI only.
