The rains finally came down on day 4 of the Cardiff test to give a glimmer of hope to England to save the kickass defeat. 2/20 in pursuit of wiping out 239 runs lead is a grim scoreline. This is typical sordid English stuff.. High on talks, low on deliverables. Huge trumpets blown about camradrie, team spirits, fire in the balls. But then the Aussie bastards cut those balls even before they could bulge up with the fire.
674 for 6 is a huge score and with 4 hundreds made indicates how good English bowling is. Anderson, Flintoff, Broad isnt an attack that would scare the Aussies. If you dump Hussey, then Aussie batting is strong, not quite what Chappell and Tony Greig feel.
By the by Bugsy was spotted in Saramutthu oval.
2 spinners in the team with one of them in poor form is ridiculous. Today most prolly permitted by weather England would be defeated and that would be the end of Ashes for England. Lord's test anyway is by default australian.
It would be great if England players and media could shut their mouth off and look for performances on the field to win the ashes.
And give some respect to Ricky for what he has managed to do since SA defeat late last year. North has been a revelation. Hughes is yet to come back to his elements this tour. Imagine what happens when he would be in form.
5-0 wont be a distant dream then for a repeat. For now England looks all set to be dead and buried in 1st Ashes test, the hype for which in England reached to a stupid levels of madness.
