Geoff Kilpatrick Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 How long can Bell hold out. So much for the 1st Innings lead. Third knock at the end of the second day wasn't part of the plan, and I thought this Test would be a draw before the series started! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Palmer Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Aggers is astonished that a bookie has paid out on England winning the Ashes before they'd got through the batting. He seems very despondent for some reason. I'll still back the bookie but I won't put money on it. AUS$400, ooo Or is it $AUS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Kilpatrick Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Australia need a win but they will probably aim to set a target of 500 given what the Saffers did at the WACA a couple of years ago (Duminy's knock in that game was one of the best I've ever seen). England need at least 3 wickets tomorrow morning to stay in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England are in a bit of soapy at the moment. Quick wickets tomorrow, hope you aren't chasing more than 400 and then trust in your batsmen. Possibly pray for rain too, but that's unlikely I would imagine...(the rain arriving, not the praying!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Cockade Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Come on Aussie! What is it with England for the past 10 years? They are world beaters one Test and world class bottlers the next Seems to happen every series 500 - 3 dec followed by 190 all out or whatever Very strange, presumably over confidence or lack of mental toughness Poorest Aussie team in decades that are there for the taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
