[MRSN]

Australia 268 & 309

England 187 & 81/5 (27.0 ov)

England require another 310 runs with 5 wickets remaining

Can England chase it? let's see

 

[MRSN]

Australians have done remarkably well yesterday,it has to be said.Now it's time to finish things off.

 

[JibranAnsari]

to spice things up i would like to see a double hundred partnership, would become interesting.

 

[Noork85]

It should be a win before lunch. Ive no intention of staying up until 5a.m watching this

 

[Noork85]

Chatty johnson.

 

[Noork85]

Bell will add a few runs to save englands face from exiting disgracefully

 

[Amjid Javed]

early runs for bell.

89/5

 

[MRSN]

[Noork85]

Oh god, i think i just puked seeing strauss's legs in shorts

 

[Noork85]

Beauty

 

[Strike!]

Stumps go flying for andersen.

 

[Noork85]

Flying stumps

 

[Noork85]

Matt prior in....how many runs can he add? He had an unbeaten century during the warm up games

 

[MRSN]

gone

 

[161 KPH]

six for prior, top edge

 

[Amjid Javed]

Prior and bell being postive which is best way to play to be honest.

 

[Noork85]

What a player bell is

 

[JibranAnsari]

they should both make 100s

lol as i said it hes gone

 

[161 KPH]

Bell definetly looks out

 

[Noork85]

4th wicket for harris

 

[Amjid Javed]

Bell gone? review called for!

 

[JibranAnsari]

bell was playing too many shots

 

[Strike!]

England chances gone from this game.

 

[Noork85]

Whoopsie...everyone collapsed

 

[ads101]

not out please

 

[JibranAnsari]

australia back with a bang , champion team

 

[Amjid Javed]

Harris has been excellent in this 2nd inns with the ball in hand!

 

[Noork85]

Everyone except trott made under 20 runs

 

[tauseefm]

Finally we(i am an Aus for time being ) are winning

 

[Amjid Javed]

3 wickets left for Aussies now...

 

[161 KPH]

harris is looking very good here

 

[ads101]

well it's pretty much over now, bell had to stay in. Prior can't do this by himself. Swann's a decent enough bat, but the other two are tailenders.

 

[atif.raza]

wot a catch

 

[Noork85]

Beautiful

 

[161 KPH]

prior gone! 5fer for harris

 

[Amjid Javed]

Prior gone as well

5 for harris!

england 8 down!

 

[161 KPH]

should all be over pretty soon

 

[JibranAnsari]

australia showing their oldselves

 

[Amjid Javed]

Harris getting the ball to fly through at chest height here!

great stuff!

 

[161 KPH]

I can't see swann hanging around for long with the way he plays his strokes

 

[161 KPH]

Just as I say that! he's gone!

 

[Amjid Javed]

swann gone! 9 down!

 

[Amjid Javed]

Eng 120/9 and getting mauled here!

 

[MRSN]

harris takes five

 

[161 KPH]

1 more for Johnson to get 10 for the match

 

[Noork85]

Identical to clarkes dismissal, no wonder he was mimicking it

 

[Strike!]

England collapsing faster than a deck of cards.

 

[MRSN]

Can Johsnon take 5fer?

 

[MRSN]

to spice things up i would like to see a double hundred partnership, would become interesting.

 

[161 KPH]

Can Johsnon take 5fer?

He can only finish with 4...which would make 10 for the match

 

[JibranAnsari]

 

[Strike!]

Can Johsnon take 5fer?

He can't.

 

[161 KPH]

And it is all over!!

 

[Strike!]

And there it is.

 

[ehjaz]

out.....Aus won

 

[Amjid Javed]

Game over! 6 for Harris!

well done Aussies!

Series is 1-1 with 2 to go....

 

[161 KPH]

Emphatic win for the aussies, harris finishes with 6

 

[Amjid Javed]

Hopefully the last 2 tests will see postive results as well.

 

[Amir]
