Gutted to hear that big Freddy is retiring, suppose his body can't take it for much longer, hope he plays well for England in ODI and T20 formats though, he's a living idol of mine.
All I can say for this test match is, another draw, rained out day tomorrow probably, unless England or Australia pull something spectacular off then all I can see is another draw, weather being the over-all winner.
The spirit with which Australia have been playing is amazing. I really hope they win the series.
Lol? What spirit have they been playing with? please en-lighten me...
How can you say a team really deserves to win the Ashes when it's only the start of the second test? :P
they make up lost time so its all good Aussies 58 - 2
If we get two-three wickets in this session then England will win this test match.
Australia just played the 50th over of their 2nd innings on the fourth day of the 2nd test at Lords, Ozzies are 181-5 at the moment and need 342 runs to win the match and take a 1-0 lead in the series.
England looking good at the moment, looks like that risky decision we took to go into bat first in the second innings yesterday could yet pay off.
England have practically won.
