Simon Says Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 I went last night, a good do all round.Law-awesome. Nine quid for my ticket, and sat under the upper tier opposite the pavilion-very good value compared with prem prices. 328673[/snapback] It was good value and I would go again. I also enjoyed the few beers I had in Manchester later. Seem to remember being in a nice pub called The Chop House. The evening was then marred by some Dingles on the last train singing songs about Jack Walker.

SouthAussieRover Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 3-19 Australian bowlers have the wood over the England top order.
Aussie_Rover Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 The way both Australia & England have been batting, thank god Bangledesh didn't make the final
Shaddy Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Well Aussies have won this by the looks of it 328695[/snapback] I'll wait... but I am completely stunned! I was extremely disappointed with the target. Now I would be extremely disappointed if Australia don't win... what the bloody hell is going on with the pitch???
modes98 Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 (edited) Hmm i don't think MV has got the batting tactics right All Out for under 50? Southaussie: it's not like the aussies made it look easy out there themselves! Edited July 2, 2005 by modes98
SouthAussieRover Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 TwentyTwenty is bad for the game. The English batsman are playing ridiculous shots that should be confined to the rounders version of cricket that 2020 is.
Scotty Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 5-33 A very overrated England team. 328696[/snapback] Not over yet. If England bat the 50 overs they'll win.

modes98 Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 wow what a finish! great fight back by the english lads! Match Tied!!!! Overrated those aussies!
Scotty Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Unbelievable. Just goes to show the difference between this series and the last few Ashes series. In the past, if Australia had us 5 down for not many they'd have gone in for the kill. Similarly, if England were 5 down quickly we'd have folded like a deckchair and been all out within the hour. This England team is made of sterner stuff though and more often than not someone steps up and sees us home. Two closely matched teams and the Ashes are going to be brilliant - bring it on.
stuwilky Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Has made me really look forward to the one dayer at Lancashire next friday, anyone else going?
Dan Furness Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Fantastic, just been watching with an Aussie in the pub. I feared the worst when our first order went for barely nothing, but Jones and Collingwood put up a good fight. Very tense finish. Fantastic. Not a big cricket fan but it was great to watch!
Timmy Posted July 2, 2005 Author Posted July 2, 2005 sorry we woz robbed! england should have won...having lost one fewer wicket...not just tied the game still amazing game...some intial poor batting and bowling by england but pulled it back well in both departments really tense at the last
Al Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 5-33 A very overrated England team. 328696[/snapback] Too soon came the cry. The convict bowling attack showed no depth whilst the England batting line up did. On any other day we would have won on fewer wickets lost. Stick to your barbies.
Ozz Posted July 2, 2005 Posted July 2, 2005 Not over yet. If England bat the 50 overs they'll win. 328719[/snapback] If the umpire had no-balled McGrath for a chest high full bunger in that last over then we would. Well done Aussie, you nearly beat us there. Who knows, you may even do well in the tests.
Manchester Blue Posted July 3, 2005 Posted July 3, 2005 (edited) As was said in the pub a draw was probably a fair result.. Funny how all the Aussies are pretty gracious except the plastic one who turned his back on his true country Edited July 3, 2005 by Manchester Blue
