    lol :)

    hopeully the English can put up more of a fight in the last test in Sydney this week,

    3 days for the boxing day test was a disgrace

    291 for their first innings isnt to bad - though 6 wickets falling today doesn't give me much confidence in the Poms

    looks like 5-0 :)

    Thanks for that Brad

    Cheers

    Justin

    I was hoping the 5th would be a better show doesnt look like its going to be at this stage.

  • justinjustin January 2007

    might be another 3 day test again if Englands lower order cant help them avoid another disgracefull performance
