So England need 129 runs to win and have 41 overs and a whole day to do it in . . .
Just a flesh wound. We’ve still got our teeth! We’ll bite you to death!
Gulp.

Just a flesh wound. We’ve still got our teeth! We’ll bite you to death!
Gulp.
oh ye of little faith. trust in god (warnie that is)
Whatcha mean little faith? I said we’d bite you to death! But c’mon, even I think it’s a longshot.
whereas i never underestimate the ability of the england team to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Whatever happens it’s dead entertaining. I remain hopeful: expecting the best, but very prepared for the worst.
But, honestly, Cheryl, your boys are batting pretty good right now. Relax!
Course I’d be a lot more hopeful if Warne could bowl from both ends . . .
freddie and pietersen seem to be doing a good job. but as rod marsh is just saying, what you guys are missing right now is mcgrath. he could have held up the other end.
Bye bye pietersen! At least we’re going down fighting!
Oh yes, McGrath woulda made a difference . . .
oh good, jones the gloves gets a chance to hit the winning runs. that will so annoy the english.
I don’t believe it! Lee got Flintoff! This is just amazing!
But your Jonesy still gets a shot at those winning runs.
don’t forget that simon jones is injured, so 9 wickets might do it
Would help if there weren’t so many no balls . . .
good job you don’t get a free hit in test cricket
oh no, all this excitment and they put blowers on the commentary!
I reckon!
My feelings exactly. Bloody Henry Blofeld! Do not talk about the bloody buggery pigeons!
nope, let’s talk about wickets falling like ninepins
Hoggard’s from Yorkshire. He’ll just bat like Boycott . . .
Once again I have no fingernails. How bout you?
fingernails? what about knuckles?
It’s not pretty . . .
I love test cricket!
I am not so thrilled about some of the lbw decisions, however . . . especially for Warne.
dunno, haven’t been able to see them on tv.
where’s jonathan? He’s missing the action.
It’s the wee early hours back home . . . though, hang on, he’s in Perth so it’s not that early.
what was that you were saying about Hoggie’s boring batting?
not that i am at all fond of most yorkshiremen, but ian botham was born in yorkshire.
this test series has been the battle of the tailenders! Amazing.
thank goodness we are not playing American League rules
Congratulations!
phew!
collapses in quivering heap…
We just have to win the next one. No worries!
yep, the oval is a nice fast pitch. it should suit lee and tait much better.
went to bed while warnie and lee were batting. needed to be up at 5am for work. sounds like you kids had fun. no more eeyore comments from me. well played england!
inger-land – inger-land – inger-land – inger-land- inger-land!!!
best.
test.
ever.
