The Ashes

[Doogie Browser]

England hit their biggest ever score in Oz, looks like the three tests they will win will all be by at least an innings too.  Poor show from the Aussies.

[Denn Forever]

But now that Collingwood is retiring, will Eoin Morgan get his game in the test side?

Good day out at the SCG today-poor showing by the Aussies alright, very poor but credit to the Poms, awesome cricket. 3 wickets to go for the series win, they could be done by lunchtime but free entry tomorrow for any of the Sydney based lads that are interested

A good Morgan interview

Are England the best test team in cricket now?

3rd best behind South Africa and India after this series. This is the worst Australian side in god knows how many years they are shocking.

Did they not beat South Africa this time last year in South Africa? Maybe it was a draw.

This is the worst Australian side in god knows how many years they are shocking.

And anyone living in Oz or has lived there will tell you that is hurting them, hurting them badly...

Oh the schadenfreude

If only it weren't the English they were getting beat by Dinny!

Are India not very inconsistent? Sachin never performs in the limelight says an Indian colleague of mine.  And the bowlers are only middling.

Thats even more outlandish than some of the statements currently being made on the football threads.

Na that hurts them even more, I admire the English, they were crap for years but recognised that and put the right structures in place to make them competitive again, it was no short term fix..

He is from Andhra Pradesh only. He talks like a Mayo football fan.
