True but they looked shaky till Warner steadied the innings.

Clarke making a bit of a surprise declaration staying with the overnight score and Johnson has struck again! England 1-1 in the 2nd over!:woot:

England struggling to stay alive in this match. 5-171.

There you go BossMark. 200 up. Only 331 to get.

4 wickets to get. C'mon Australia!

Aaaannddd it raining here this morning :down: ,I'm wondering if the English had a rain dance going all night.

Of course they did. It's the only thing that can save them from defeat in this match.

The rain has stopped and we've picked up a wicket already.

Two quick wickets and England is 9-301.

And that's the match. 2-0 to Australia.

I might have to revise my forecast. The team without the ticker is not the one I thought it was.

So what's happened to England in 3 months?

Come on you cons, smash those nappy bed wetters for six. :rotfl2:

Looks like England is back to the bad old days and if there is a white wash pelt them with rotten fruit and veg when they try to sneak back to the UK via the back door.

Looks like the pommy papers have thrown the towel in already. http://m.smh.com.au/sport/cricket/en...210-2z345.html

Heads will roll when they return home and a new captain? :hmmm:

Perth test starts today. Should be home from work to watch the final session. Forecast is sunny and 38deg C. Hope the poms don't melt. Five days over 37 expected. Phew what a real scorcher.

Both Clarke and Cook are celebrating their 100th test. I wonder who will be celebrating by the end?
