[OT] Ashes series

[Eternalknight]

Well, I must apologize to all you Brits out there; Australia isn't really giving you a fair chance in the cricket. I mean 2/364 at the end of the first day - really, that's just not fair to you guys.

 

[Drakmar]

you mean the english still play cricket? they still bother?

 

[Bagpuss]

Apology accepted, althought I doubt it was sincere, after all if there is a criminal gene as an Australian you probably have it.

Bitter me? Never.

 

[Eternalknight]

Just remember, we are originally from over there....

The morning news thoughtfully showed Simon Jones' knee injury several times, including in slow motion, just to help my breakfast go down. Thanks guys.

Lets just hope we get more than 3-day Test Matches...

Well, Australia can bat for three days, getting some 6-900, then send England in to bat. On the fourth day, bowl them out. Repeat for the fifth.

 

[Sulimo]

Hehe. Yeah.

Still, it was a sad day not to see Mark Waugh in the team...

Yeah have to agree. And I admit you have to feel sorry for Simon Jones. He is going to be out for 6 months (ouch!)

Yeah. I shuddered when I saw it. Its especially sad it happened on day 1 of the series. Not that it would've been much better if it happened on the final day of the series.

*ahh...finally a sport related thread I can get my teeth into.
