Was good to see England pile on a heft score for 1 wicket. When australia piled on that lead in the first, thought we were down and out, but v well batted by our top 3.
Shame we somehow couldnt muster a win out of that. I woulda just kept on batting till the end of day 5, put like 700 on. Declaring with 30overs (or whatever it was) to play and 300+runs needed seemed a bit pointless and it woudlve fucked the aussie cunts right off if we just batted it out.
We were neer gunna get 10 wickets on that track in the overs that were left. It was too easy vs 'pace' as the wicket was too slow. Spinners had little to no impact either. With all the rough and the cracks I thought it woulda been more tricky, but didnt seem to affect either team in their 2nd innings.
Johnson is a pile of shite, Doherty just looks like a standard left arm ( can he bat or something?) why did they drop the other dude? Hauritz? Watson, Siddle and Hilfenhaus are just average imo. God knows how siddle got 6 wickets in the first. Bring it on.
