NatWest Final: Australia Vs England [2/7/05]

[Rob H]

England put the Aussies into bat.
2-0 so far

 

[Rob H]

4 for hayden

 

[Rob H]

another 4 for hayden, Aussies making a positive start.

 

[Amir]

This pitch looks like it has alot of pace, Australians should not struggle considering conditions are very similar to home and their bowlers should enjoy this wicket.

 

[Rob H]

30-0

 

[MIG]

Cmon England - Engerland Engerland !!!

 

[Rob H]

300+ on for the aussies

 

[karachiite]

gilchrist going seserk, 4 4s in a row!!!!!

 

[Amir]

They gotta get Gilchrist out early if they want to restrict them under 300.

 

[MIG]

And Engerland fans sing....
"Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home,
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home."

 

[karachiite]

Hayden goes for 17, caught giles bowled gough

 

[Rob H]

Hayden out

 

[Rob H]

Flintoff bowling really well

 

[Rob H]

Freddie finally gets Gilchrist :3::3::3::3::3::3::3::3::3:

 

[Rob H]

6666666666666666 for ponting

 

[Rob H]

Ricky out to a poor ball by Harmison :3:

 

[spongebob]

Symonds needs to hang around if aussies want to post a good total now.

 

[adi 101]

another wicket for england!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! simon jones strikes their goes michael clarke

 

[ZM]

man aussies r crumbling yet again

 

[Billy]

Good comeback from Jones

went for more than 9 an over in his first 3 without a wicket

then came back and took a wicket for just 2 runs from 3 overs.

 

[Billy]

He needs to bowl round the wicket to left-handers though.

 

[KaSaNoVa_G]

watching this at the moment...
aussies 110/5 28.3 overs..

england need 2 keep them at 230 or below....

 

[spongebob]

I feel aussies will do well to reach 200 from here.

 

[mumtaz]

aussies all out for 196

 

[Billy]

That's too many I fear.

Mcgrath in these conditions will be very difficult to play.

 

[Rob H]

10-0

 

[Rana Banana]

trescothic out by mcgrath

 

[Rob H]

I feel the Aussies could steal this one.

 

[whyhkk]

13/2 openers gone
aus might win unless pietersen plays unbelievable again

 

[Rob H]

I bet Eng are out for under 100

 

[Rob H]

McGrath bowls Vaughan.

 

[Rob H]

Out pieterson

 

[Rob H]

Lowest score in ODIs is on

 

[Rob H]

4 to Flintoff

 

[Usman]

How crap can England get, its like they've never played at lords before or never chased before, or even never batted before, absoulotly appaling stuff from them. I bet even Bangladesh could come back and bowl them out in this final!!!

 

[Rob H]

4 more Flintoff showing the Aussies what he can do

 

[spongebob]

if england are to win, they need flintoff or collingwood to bat till the end.

 

[Rob H]

ponting drops collingwood

 

[Rob H]

OUT, FLINTOFF caught at slip

 

[Usman]

and Vaughan was talking about getting his first centuary today, came close just 100 runs short I would say!

 

[Usman]

RH what is the lowest score ever? cause vaughn said they would try and make history so at the end of England's innings I want to check if he was telling the truth or not!

 

[Rob H]

33-5

 

[Kamranz]

NatWest Final: Australia Vs England

hahaha Omg any1 watching this? Latest score is 34/5 of Englands.

Man, Bangladesh gave Australia good fight thru-out the Natwest series!

Eyebrows were raised over Bangla's poor cricket.

 

[spongebob]

G.O. Jones hits Gillespie for four.

Gillespie could throw it away here for the Aussies!!!

 

[Rob H]

Well i am suprised England avoided the lowest total ever. It's a very poor pitch for an ODI.

 

[z10]

yea well thats a gud thing...its seperated the men from the boys...looool

 

[Rob H]

6 for Jones

 

[spongebob]

Jones edges but falls safe.

 

[Rob H]

England are back with a small chance
666666666666666 by Jones

 

[Rob H]

Collingwood and Jones have really played well on a poor pitch

 

[Rob H]

Jones made a brilliant 50

 

[z10]

still has work to do though

 

[Hashim]

I think the auzzies will clinch this match.

 

[mumtaz]

from now england should win it seeing that 4 of the last 8 overs have to be bowled by hussey or hogg. england can only shoot themselves in the foot by getting out to mcgrath or lee.

 

[spongebob]

Collingwood is run out!!!

 

[mumtaz]

or by getting run out for that matter, Collingwood style.

 

[mumtaz]

39 off 36 now!! hogg now bowling, negative move by ponting, should have tried to get giles out with lee or mcgrath.

 

[mumtaz]

jones gone!! curtains for England??

 

[mumtaz]

Lee has to be bowling the next over now, surely

 

[Rob H]

well so much for a great comeback. We did do well though to come within 30 of them

 

[spongebob]

Simon Jones bowled By Hussey!!!

 

[Hashim]

hahah! I hope england lose!

 

[Noman]

I hope England win

 

[mumtaz]

hussey's over last hope for England.

 

[Noman]

England have lost the match..


I think Jones could have won it, but he didnt have the experience...

 

[Rob H]
