[fundy]

[Odvan]

Never in doubt...!

 

[adiemel]

amazing test match. Great to win but god that was tense

 

[Tiger]

Amazing test match! What a finish. England really should have put it to bed earlier though. Finn's got to go for the 2nd Test...

Not really a big cricket fan but that was an amazing last day, i really thought they were going to throw it away.

Yeah I thought the same thing. I hate to say it but I think I will be watching more of the cricket. Been hooked the last 6 months and have got bored of televised golf... Tee shots and putting out all day. Would much rather watch an hour of built up tension with a low run rate and then all of a sudden a few Aussie wickets falling will be wearing out the sky remote for sure

Will be similar here mate. The cricket over the last few days has been fantastic and easily eclipsed the golf. Will probably put one on the laptop and one on the bigscreen, then just rotate the commentary when it looks interesting...

Watched Sky sports news this morning and they had a report From Aus about the DRS and Broad not walking!!!!!!

They didn't menion Haddin nicking it to the keeper and standing there though!!!! He knew he hit it, tell tale sign is he followed the ball straight to the keeper.

strange how a big thing got made of the Broad edge, I don't remember Mark and Steve Waugh, walking walking to many times or any of the aussies except Gillcrest ever walking

Or Clarke not walking at the 2nd test in Adelaide in 2010..forcing England to use a review.

Bunch of hypocrites!

English batsmen playing like blummin donkeys for a change! No doubt they'll expect Anderson to bail them out...again.
