imi Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 NOT LOOKING GOOD Final day of the 1st test, 47 - 4 already, preparing to write off england's chances to draw this 1st match, what do you think about the series though.......do we have the talent and will to retain the ashes or are we just a bunch of losers.

Nemesis Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 We completely underestimated the Aussies. Bring back Harmison and maybe, but they're so determined and a proper team. I think we may have blown it already, confidence sure to take a nose dive now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinboy Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 We can't retain them because we don't have them after getting panned 5-0 last time round - the only way we get them is by an outright win. Which does look unlikely yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angarak Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think we should stop playing Cricket all together, and we should stop rewarding sportspersons (politically correct term) with MBEs and OBEs because they win something once every decade. PS: As Im sure you've gathered, Im not a cricket lover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 one sorry scorecard Still hoping that Collingwood can stay in there; not convinced about the rest....they will as always find ways to get themselves out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creative Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 do we have the talent and will to retain the ashes or are we just a bunch of losers. definitely the second one....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathmonkey Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 We're a bit pathetic at cricket! 2005 was amazing, but they're just players on secure contracts who get a few holidays a year throwing a ball around. We can be a good side with the players we have available, but we always screw it up. Add to the fact that the ashes is always against Australia, we're a bit screwed, considering Australia are the best team in the world, even after losing Langer, Hayden, McGrath, Warne and even Symonds. South Africa would easily hump England, got a bad feeling it'll end up 5-0 on English soil!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imi Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Just watched the highlights....WHAT A STEAL Collingwood battled it out for 5hrs only to nearly blow it all away for England. Anderson and Monty played really well, embarrassing that england relied on their tail enders to save the game....well done nevertheless and hope this gives them the confidence that they so desperately need. Bring on the next match... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 The guys are playing really well smashing the aussies all over the place. Good chance of winning the game this one...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
