Well, if Collingwood's going to have his 1 drop in a thousand, spose you'd want it at a time like this.

Barmy Army in full voice at the moment, they're loving it \:d/

They sound awesome too.

Good knock by Punter at the end. Will do his confidence some good.

North and Johnson should be very worried tonight.

YOU'RE THE CONVICTS, YOU'RE THE CONVICTS, YOU'RE THE CONVICTS OVER THERE!

singing that for about 10 plus minutes straight when I was watching.

Love the Barmy Army. Great fun to listen to.

Wow, just flicked on the cricket to see we're 3/61. What the hell happened?

Feeling pretty secure with Hussey and Watson at the crease though

Watson gone for 51. Perfect opportunity for North to show he warrants a spot in this side.

Yeah good luck with that:lol:

We are almost in exactly the same position batting wise as we were in the first test :lol:

North is past 20, quick, chuck all your money on him getting a 100.

Career defining innings this is for North.

So in the first test Australia was 4/140 after 51.2 overs. Today after 48 overs they are 4/139.

Lol wait, nvrmind.

Swann on a hat-trick! Harris reveiwing

nothing conclusive, this could go either way.

Desiscion stands! SWANN ON A HAT-TRICK!!!

no hat-trick.

Haddin brings up his 50 with a six off Anderson.

Haddin top edges one out to fine leg and Australia all out for 245.

First ball of the day is a stark contrast from yesterday, Strauss placing one into the gap for a quick single.

3rd ball in, Dougie brings one back in to Strauss and takes his Off-stump bail. Looking at the reply, Strauss pre-meditated the leave, ball kept its line. Poor leave.

That was a shit desicion by Strauss, Trott and Cook are looking good now though.

and Cook goes to 50.

...and Trott follows with his half century.

Let's just give them the Ashes now. We can't bowl to save our lives.

right now I'd be so tempted to try and take a few heads off with some beamers:lol:

Finally a wicket. Harris picks up Trott for 78. England 2/176

Cook is class.

I can honestly see a World Record coming.

Pietersen is classier:P

So England 4/551 at stumps due to a rain delay with no play at all since tea.

This will probably force Strauss into a declraration earlier than he would have liked to but still can't see anything but an England win tbh. Going to need some Adelaide 06 heroics to get anything out of this.
