  • Agreed, it's hard to say whether it's a good score or not as so many of our batsmen went out to average balls or brain farts. Not sure the Aussies will make as many errors as we did, but our bowling i

    I think this match will be over today before the lights come on. Australia's batting and bowling has been so much better than England's.

    Oh Shit, we best not have this conversation lol. You most likely dislike mine as much as I dislike yours lol

205 for 6 and yes I am crazy. 🤣

I'm starting to think England have almost no hope now. I still refuse to rule them out.

(If you know how I follow my football team [AFL], I am very rarely comfortable watching them in any game. 🤣

Stumps on Day 4 and England are 207 6.

Australia need 4 more wickets to retain The Ashes.

England need 228 runs to win the test match and keep the series alive.

Day 5 commences. Can Australia pick up the final 4 wickets to retain The Ashes quickly or will England claim an unlikely victory?

Rain delay in Adelaide with England 241 for 6. 34 runs already added this morning.

It looks like a passing shower but all Australia need is a draw to retain The Ashes.

Who do you follow in the AFL? (The real footy lol)

As far as today, England were never going to win, it was truly just a matter of when Australia wrapped it up, not if

I follow a very polarising team, so I'm guessing it's one you hate.

Collingwood.

Who do you follow?

In hindsight maybe but England gave it a damn good shake today, credit to them for that. It's just a shame it tokk for the series to be almost over for them to play decently.

Is it the other team beginning with 'C'?

I can tolerate most teams, there's only really 3 or 4 I despise. Carlton, Essendon, Geelong and Hawthorn.

Hahaha, I take it that it's Carlton then. 😂

*Sorry for going off topic in the Cricket thread.

Anyway on to the Boxing Day Test, they'll be at least 2-3 changes. Lyon and Cummins two outs at least and you'd think Smith will return, so maybe Inglis goes out for Smith.

As to which bowlers come in I'm not sure. I'd love the Victorian in Murphy to come in for a home ground test.

Haven't been able to watch as much as the first two tests (day games are not made for WA night owls 😅) but England looked a lot more threatening in this one. That missed catch on 99 for Head is a huge what-if that could've completely changed momentum. Also was thinking back to 2005 and thought they might be able to hold out and squeeze for a draw.
