The Ashes - Oh Bugger !!!

Hmmm.

Aussies off to a great start in the run chase..

Bit of rain sets in,  (bit unusual for England Wink)  play halted....

0 for 73

Then we effectively loose 7 for 38

What's going on ??????????????????????????????????????????

The Ashes are just about gone, its gonna take a huge effort to win now.

If we dont retain the Ashes I think Ponting should be sacked as captain.

True...

But unfortunately he is also on the selection committee...

Having no dedicated spinner in the 5th Test might be his downfall !

North was unlucky, Hussey needs to take a break and maybe stand aside..

Lets hope the tide changes very quickly in todays play and the Aussies get to have a good crack at a moderate runs chase.

The man who uses an alias and fills the role of curator has some explaining to do. It's a fuggin minefield out there from day 1. Previous county matches have yeailded many many runs and very few results. Go figure.......
