I must admit I am totally amazed at the outcome of this series. Not just for the fact that we've lost, but that no-one, absolutely no-one, has played well (actually, I'll exclude Broad from that). I know some were confident of an English series win before we went, and others were more...

Good start so far and cook is scoring at a one day rate. 32-0 7.2 ovs

I imagine Boycott is ranting so we here by now ..... Thank f*** for that.

Leaking runs again. Sounds like we're bowling a lot of short stuff again, and they're swinging and getting away with it...

Yeah. Keep up to date on cricinfo. Hope we keep a reasonable lead going into 2nd innings.

Lyon has an average of 15.5 and a top score of 40 n.o. He's not a complete mug with the bat, so we'll need to close this out quick tonight. We really don't want them getting a bit of a lift before they start bowling, and a big of tail-wagging is not what we need.

We're easily pleased these days.... Gonna give it 20 mins of their innings and see if we can do something with the ball. Well, apart from pick it up at the boundary anyway!

This whole tour has been a disaster. However, confidence is a strange thing and they are full of it, and we're completely shot. I don't believe they are much better than us; just want it more and are in a roll. Shit happens !!!!

My thoughts too. Need KP to click tonight, and Bresnan (ok Broad then), to handpg around a bit.

Pietersen can't win can he!!! Boycott slams him for being too cavalier, now Aggers is writing that he's been too defensive. Seems to me that he knuckled down today (realising that he's not in great form, and that the pitch was slow), and tried to graft a decent score. Always been a fan of his...

Bugger. Cook gone for 27. 48/1.

Impressive stats from Harris. 6 overs, only 1 scoring shot for 4. That's tight bowling.

Make them pay for their mistakes. Take full advantage and get a big score....

I may be hoping too much, but I'd love to see us take apart one or two of their bowlers. Totally demoralise; Lyon and Johnson please....

Storming start 9-0 2.1 Ovs. What a run rate; best all series I'd bet :)

There's also no such thing as a 'dead' test match IMO. Ok, we've lost the ashes, but if we can get it together for these last 2 test matches with a slight tweak to the team, then we can gain something from theses games. i badly want us to knock some of the cockiness out of these Aussies...

Came across quite humble and supportive go Swanny. Not what you'd expect given his usual portrayal in the media.
