Stayed up and watched til Lunch.

I think Cook might have just sealed the player of the series, although there are many many contenders for this from the 3 Lions.

Nice to see the pinked up crowd as well as Mikey and the boys in the box.


These Aussie's are looking very sour grapes at the moment and again showing too many signs of 'that's just not cricket old chap'.

A 3-1 scoreline is looking most ominous

And again they try to cheat, claiming a catch that clearly bounced and then not being happy about the review decision

3 more wickets to go and a 1 full sunny day to get them.

Another cracker for a very dominant England display. The Aussies looked shot and devoid of anything.

Well Done Colly too. Retires after this last day. Great servant, not the most natural test batsman at No4 or 5, but his all round bowling, fielding game and team enthusiasm ensured he was a regular.


Quote of the day (and one that maybe used at the KM) from David Lloyd 'Watch all the Aussies turn up tomorrow dressed as plastic seats'

The Barmy Army should belt out a few well known songs today...

'Your ground's too big for you'
'Can we play you every week'
'You're supposed to be at home'
'You're not very good'

And various other well known dittys  :laugh:

Wrapped up in no time I want my money back!

Ten years ago who'd have thought they'd see England retain the ashes in Oz and win the series with 3 innings to spare! Wish I was there right now! May pop into Walkabouts tomorrow.

What do you call an Aussie who can handle a bat?
A vet.
Thankyou I'll get my coat.
I think that watching English cricket is like watching the Rovers.
When you have been and watched some really dire players you can appreciate the good times. :)
