Originally posted by dan182I made it out to the game. Despite receiving the worst sunburn I've had for years, it was a good day. The English were hopeless. I know they're not regarded as a terrific one day side, but they're really going to have to lift in a few weeks time.

Originally posted by rhbYou English are always so pessimistic! I can't see Australia losing, but I do believe your lot will give us a decent game. We're going to lose at least one test (perhaps the first).

Originally posted by rhbThat's rubbish. The most rain affected game was Old Trafford, where it rescued the Aussies.

Even back when Australia were stuffing England every time in the early 90s they never beat us 5-0. Something like 3-1 is far more likely.
