Cricket - Perth Test

[toonmilo]

Come on England!, Just this test needed.
Supposed to be a bouncy track at the WACA, how do you see it panning out?

I reckon we'll win the toss and field first and hopefully by the end of day one we will have them 240 for 8

:)

If we bat first then, we'll end up on 260-3

:)

I'm in Perth and I can't see them managing to play cricket here. It's terribly cold at the moment and snow forecast for tomorrow.

And cricket is such a boring sport anyway.

;-)

On the other hand, if Michael Beer plays (and he's anywhere near as good as Shane Warne says he is) England's batting might collapse!

[steg]

yes englandshire will definitely win the toss as they are expert Salad Chefs

[steg]

well that served me right lol

[factor-fiction]

Unfortunately the AB censor/filter messed up your reply, steg.

[steg]

maybe just as well factor, lol

Is that a crystal ball I see, milo??
Win the toss....check.
Field first...check
240 for 8...bl00dy good shout.
Their lower order added more than I would have liked, but batting can't be that difficult if the likes of Siddle and Hilfenhaus can score runs...COME ON ENGLAND.

We're doing well, yes ??

The two best cricket teams, South Africa & India, are due to start their 3 match series today which will decide the No 1 side in the World.

[lesblue]

^^^Yep...and India over here next summer should be a cracking series.

[joggerjayne]

India ?

Like the Major in Fawlty Towers ...

"I took her to see India, you know"

"At the Oval"

[lesblue]

Yes, Jayne...that India. They are very good at cricket these days...Fourth test at The Kia Oval 18th to 22nd August 2011

Took my kids to see Pakistan at The Oval. Had to explain to them that the group round the scoreboard were really shouting "England S.it" because they wanted the English fielders to have a nice rest

** Fourth test at The Kia Oval 18th to 22nd August 2011 **

Ya, erm ... I would have loved to, but I'm ... err ...

... busy ...

... washing my hair ?

And my telly's on the blink that week.

[toonmilo]

Well i wasnt far out :)
Great days play for England. Hopefully we can kick on tomorrow and get at least 350

BBC News: Australian Cricket captain Ricky Ponting admits, "We deserve criticism."

I'll send the wife over, Ricky. She's good at that.

[toonmilo]

Game on now though! Aussies have woken up!

They are in the driving seat though with a lead of 200 after day 2.

Not enough time left for it to be a draw, so hopefully England can get them all out for under 320 tomorrow and leave ourselves a tough but achievable target to win
