England 444 & 280/6 (61.5 ov)

jones provides sum lusty blows before declaration...!

Aus need 423 runs to win.... :-O:-O

 

[Amjid Javed]

17 overs today and all day tmoz for aussies to survive!

 

[Team Slayer]

McGrath getting pasted!

Faced with a deficit, supported poorly in the field and supported poorly by his batsman...McGrath has showed up to the party and is getting a spanking that he richly deserves!

Take away the comfy cushion of a solid batting and fielding lineup, aur dekhiyay phir kaisy asliyat khul kay saamnay aati hai is "champion" bowler ki. Greatest pacer ever, my a$$.

I am LOVING this!

I have never seen such bewilderment on the faces of the Aussies...McGrath cannot belive what he is seeing...he has been shaking his head for the last 2 hours; Warney goes wicketless...Gillespie knows his Ashes is over...only 4 overs today.

These Aussies look shell-shocked...stunned. They are used to administering this sort of treatment on others, yet session after sesion afet session...Aussies being rubbed into the dirt.

 

[Shoaib A]

yea and they deserve to go down under....england has done very well!!

 

[mlegha1]

I donot know why but I feel bad for the Aussies, I never liked them dominating the game the way they did but never wanted England to bring them down to earth.May be it is the overboard English media who won't stop making gods out not so special players.It just can't stand it when they compare Kevin Peterson to Sir Viv over and over again.Please Aussies bounce back and show that you still are the boss otherwise we will never hear the end of this Ashes triumph.
