Is he?? I'm glad you posted, as the internet updates are very delayed.

I was about to predict a half century for the chubby bastard.

It sure looks like ti. Aus 355-9. Overall lead of 390.
Looking into my crystal ball, England will never chase down 400. They'll look good at 50-1 and 90-2. There'll be a clatter of wickets then Pieterson will rescue the innings, but they'll be all out for 302.😛

Pity we didn't nip the Aussies out for about 60 less.
We could have ended up with a very close game ending in 3 days 😕

I reckon England will lose by 120 runs now.
I was optimistic until this morning...

Hmmm. Well, Tres will be out lbw to Warne sooner or later.
Three good shouts, last one plumb but the umpire thought bat-pad, but not so.

100 odd for 2 and then 125-5. Pieterson's in. I've read this script before.

If there is a god please prove it. Throw your rain down for the next 36 hours.

Amen

Post your predictions here.

I reckon England 2 - 1 but the Aussies will win the first test.
I love England, I am patriotic and I love watching and playing sport. I'll always be behind our teams, however...

...any one who thinks we have a chance of regaining the Ashes probably doesn't fully understand cricket. We might win a test, draw one, (if this rain continues it could be at Lords), but we are not going to beat the Aussies overall in the Series...

2-1 Aussies would be a great result...

Jones, the rain and any hope has gone....
