Can you please tell me was this a 1 day match? HAHAHAHA

I think the run rate after the first 20 overs was something like 5.4. That's atrocious!

I can't wait to see this magical Micheal Vaughn batting. I wanna see how fast McGrath knocks his stumps over. My bet is on a max of 10 overs. McGrath wil take him!
Then the rest will drop like flies.

I'm predicting 5-0 to Australia!

And why the F**K did Hussain choose to bowl! It's like the best batting pitch ever! I guess he's not used to seeing yellow pitches. t wasn't moist and green enough for him.

hahaha
Good Luck

If u could understand what you were talking about..... I'd probably make a snidey comment

Posted by Az on Nov-07-2002 10:57:

well from what I can tell we didn't have the best of luck... and it looks like your gonna glide past 600, but as I said, you'd win the first test, as we haven't really had enough time to prepare a proper side for the 1st test. You've got to take the fact we can only actually play cricket for about 2 months of the year, our best bowlers are injured (Gough looks like he's out for the whole series, along with Jones, Flintoffs fucked etc...)
and as for Vaughan, McGrath probably will knock his stumps over, but the guys clearly taking some sort of performance enhancing drugs, noone is that consistent
oh and when Gilchrist is in, aim for the elbows

Posted by sifntj0r on Nov-07-2002 12:52:

bad luck about the Jones kid, it's always a shame for something like that to happen to anyone in any sport, looked quite nasty too

you could almost imagine the ligaments in his knee snapping

ive just been watching the highlights it was appalling!

Posted by escee on Nov-07-2002 15:06:

AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!!!!

The english bowlers knee injury looked horrible, of all things in the body to injure, i think the knee would have to be the worst (from a sports perspective).

And, I see SugarShacks football comment, and raise him a Rugby Union and Rugby League

OI OI OI!!!!

Bleh, cricket is boring, i understand it, but well im sure it fills u with great pride, beating us again.

Coz i really dont care

Now talk to me about England V Australia in football and im sure it would be a simular score line, but more like 364 - 2

You really are shite at football.

Apart from Viduka and kewell

Posted by Dj O'Callaghan on Nov-07-2002 23:40:

Viduka hahaha even though he played for my beloved Celtic, since he's been at Leeds he's been indulging in one too many pies, hahaha the Aussies best striker is like that Jono Coleman bloke, anyway Aussie Rules BILLABONG! SHOCKER! Roberts is tackled by a Carlton player BILLABONG! hahahaha anyway talking about Cricket hahahahaha Was David Boon the biker from the village people?

(The one and only David Boon LMAO what a surname what a tash)

Spad - You do realise there's only 24 people in the UK who actually like cricket yeah? Kind of like us beating you kanga's in a game of international table tennis (i.e. you wouldn't give a shit)

actually, i do believe an australian is currently the darts world champion....

"The 2002 Embassy World Champion, Australia's Tony David."
"Australian Tony David, a 34 year old Townsville lad, just became the World Darts Champion. He managed to rise above his status as a relative unknown to defeat Mervyn King, one of the highest ranked darts players in the world. For his trouble at the competition played outside London, Tony takes home AU$137,000"

...and here's the link http://www.abc.net.au/am/s457697.htm

awfully sorry

no offence but I do believe the world champion is Englands Phil "the power" Taylor, seeing as he hasn't lost in 2 years
(Sky Sports news rules )

Posted by escee on Nov-10-2002 04:04:

haha

personally i think cricket is more important darts. So you can have the darts world championship, we will have the ashes

Posted by Philby on Nov-10-2002 09:20:

hehe well we put you out of your misery with a day to spare!

i was looking forward to watching the run chase tomorrow, now i cant

Posted by Luke Terry on Nov-10-2002 10:24:

all i know is that it was funny seeing that guy fuck his leg on the highlights

Posted by escee on Nov-10-2002 13:25:

384 runs is a fair bit england

Posted by Az on Nov-10-2002 15:39:
