Fascinating game ...... that is why there should be India - Pakistan Test series very year, Test cricket needs iconic series like these.
 
What a brilliant match. Fightbacks from both teams in each session.

The Ashes is king.
 
My dad got in the shower when Sidds got out.

Still in the shower now and says he will stay for all of lunch and the rest of the match.
 
So the outcome of the match, whichever way it goes, rested on two "chokers" - Bell and Haddin?
 
Never expected such a fight from Aussies , in my books they deserve to win , also a win for a aussies will spice up the series.
 
Where is everyones favourite England fan? Now is the time to be trolling!
 
Very strange watching the cricket and being unable to eat :))

Would have FEASTED at this point usually. Now im just sitting.
 
I think the break favours England.

But really nobody is in a preferable position here. This is just intense.
 
I think this lunch break just lost us the Test match
 
Who was saying this will be one sided or there is no hype to this.

There is a Pak and Windies ODI on now. There is no way I'm switching to that.

If that was me out there batting, I wouldn't want a break. I would just want to keep batting.
 
Lunch gives Anderson a chance to recover and for everyone to calm down and have a discussion.

I wouldn't mind if the Aussies won though. It would be majestic historically, and probably be better for the series.
 
How much did Barbie scored after he did not walk?
Seems that Aussies would be home by now
 
All of Jimmy's wickets today have been caught behind the wicket due to nicks.

Well you can't blame Cheater for not walking, he doesn't have to. It's the umpire's job to give him out. Doesn't change the fact that he's a cheater tho.
 
Australia have never won an Ashes Test by one wicket...Let's see if they can change the history...
 
By 3 this afternoon we'll have a 'what happened next' moment I reckon.
 
OH NO
God forbid pak tv shows pak games....

some people are so brainless

Yup ive opened a stream there was Star Cricket available in Pakistan till 2011 but Geo Network lobbied to shut its coverage in Pakistan because of their channell Geo Supoor
 
Where is Malakian?

He predicted a 5-0 whitewash for England.

Get sky Ashes HD stream....

Its the best for watching the match...
 
Tied test? 100/1. If it wasn't ramadan I'd be licking my lips.

hahaha. i just checked it is 10/1 right now .
Stewart on tms : "England have created the opportunities to finish this game off but both dressing rooms will now be tense. Swann has bowled too quick and flat to Pattinson. He needs to bowl wider and take a risk. The ball is also not reverse swinging but I'm convinced Anderson will start doing it."

Its 100/1 on Willie Hill and a few other places.

Might need to rush Bopara to the ground and bring him on as a sub for that to happen
 
What I love about cricket is that it cannot be fully comprehended; nobody knows who the favourites are here. England technically only need 1 ball to do something, but 20 runs isn't many to get either.
