The Ashes 2010-2011

[ethos]

I've taken the news well, others, not so much..

(Stole this from another forum btw..)

 

[Beachy]

We've been sent in ... not really what you want when you've gone in with 4 quicks ...

 

[ningnangnong]

How'd he give that out? Good thing we've got these reviews.

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

1/2

Standard start for us, not panic stations just yet, lol.

 

[Beachy]

His technique isn't up to international standard

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

Pitch looks a beauty so far (by that I mean good for a contest).

I reckon we could have 4 innings of scores between 220-300.

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

What a beauty of a catch.

Effing hell, give us a break [icon_non

This must be what it feels like to be a Pom.

 

[ningnangnong]

Depressing stuff. :|

 

[Beachy]

That's a shocking shot from Ponting ... but what a catch

 

[ningnangnong]

**** me. Clarke gone.

 

[Beachy]

Have these blokes not heard of leaving a ball on length? WTF was Clarke doing playing at that??!!

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

*sigh*

That shot is all too typical of Clarke. Lazy, irresponsible, just throwing his innings away under pressure.

What more can go wrong? Even the Poms weren't this bad!

 

[ningnangnong]

The worst thing is, this start doesn't surprise me one bit.

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

Haha, pretty much game over already.

I know the pitch is helping little a bit, but I have doubts about our discipline with the ball vs the Poms bowling.

 

[Major JW Hochstetter]

Well batted by the Turtle. Hopefully he can help Huss out with some runs after lunch. 250-300 is a long way off, but that's what we need I reckon.

 

[Beachy]

England to lead on first innings by the end of play?

 

[Browny]

England to bat once this test

 

[Fozz]

Don't count on it. This team could go negative runs.
