[Cricket] Fourth Ashes Test - England v Australia - Trent Bridge

[Guinness Boy]

I'm setting off for The Amex soon too. Having been excited about the new season all day I now just want to sit in my garden with a bottle of beer and TMS. Oh well...

Australia 236-7.

Could be over tonight.

Or not, bad light my arse!

You should have heard the radio over here yesterday, sounded like they were getting ready for a state funeral, it was like John Howard had died or something.
Every station was having it's own postmortem, very strange and not really 'that' important.

Australia 236-7.

Could be over tonight.

Or not, bad light my arse!

Going by the attitude here, I will be alone in the pub tonight when victory is sealed.

This current Aussie team will do well to be let back home after this tour. Abject humiliation all round and they deserve this, not showed up and to be fair we have had golden moments of sublime form from various players at different times.

What would happen if all our players hit form together ?

 

[Hugo Rune]

I'm looking forward to a morning of TMS however, I think we'll take the three wickets quite quickly and I can't see us batting again. I believe we'll seal the victory at 11:40am.

On what a wonderful Saturday morning. The sun is shining, Brighton are top of the league (haha) and England about to win The Ashes. If Carlsberg did Saturday mornings....

They might beat a decent Test Team like South Africa?

 

[Eeyore]

I'd like to see us put four past them this series. I can't remember us doing that since the post-Packer series of 78/79.

End game for the Aussie captain, retiring from test cricket after this series

It's coming home
It's coming home
It's coming
The Ashes are coming home

TWO WICKET TO GO... Stokes get's his SIXTH wicket... 242-8, trailing by 89

Starc goes for 0, gropes for the edge to Bell at 2nd slip.

End game for the Aussie captain, retiring from test cricket after this series

Wouldn't be surprised if he resigned as captain after this game.

 

[Titanic]

JUST ONE WICKET TO GO... Wood joins the party... yorker SPLATTERS Hazlewood's stumps

243-9

Adam Voges 50* (11 balls, 7 fours)

11 balls!?

 

[Eeyore]

So will there be a 'beer' match ?

 

[Titanic]

Australia 253 all out (72.4 overs). England win by an innings and 78 runs

ENGLAND have WON THE ASHES

Match winners all round in the England team, Stuart Broad 8 for 15, Joe Root 130, Jonny Bairstow 74, Ben Stokes 6 for 36, great catching all round from Root, Cook, Bell and Stokes

THREE - ONE to the En-ger-land

 

[Triggaaar]

Done!

I'm looking forward to a morning of TMS however, I think we'll take the three wickets quite quickly and I can't see us batting again. I believe we'll seal the victory at 11:40am.

Bingo!
