Something to brighten up everyones day @BBCBreaking 33m Woolwich murder suspect Michael Adebolajo attacked in Belmarsh prison, south-east London http://bbc.in/13QVPvE He has had his teeth knocked out, well done to the people who did it Hopefully he gets more of the same
Anyone been watching the Ashes? The Aussies are crap, they are a complete shambles and England are smashing them. They simple cant handle Swann and Anderson's bowling. What and innings by Joe Root. Does anyone fancy revenge from that 5-0 thrashing they gave us a few years ago. Its looks a decent possibility
Can't take my eyes off it. Joe Root was class but Bell should have been MOTM. His first innings steadied the ship when KP, Cook and Trott went cheaply. Speaking of those three. How worrying is it for the Aussies that we've won the first two tests without them performing?
You stand no chance of winning test matches when none of your batsman are scoring runs. Their tail has done better then the top end None of their bowlers have really stood out either. I think England will whitewash them
I think we'll win the series. But I do expect the Aussies to win at least one. They have too much quality to be playing this poorly.
I wouldnt say that. Michael Clarke is class but his decision to not take the new ball was strange to say the least. Peter Siddle is a decent bowler when he can gets his lines right but apart from that there is no one who stands out. England on the other hand have alot of quality playing and people on the side lines like Steven Finn, Eoin Morgan, Ravi Bopara and James Taylor. The Aussie just lack decent depth plus the fact they have no decent spinner
Lets not forget we only won the first test by 14 runs. They're not as bad as they made out in the last 4 days.
That was more England being bad then them being good. England took their foot off the gas towards the end. It was a superb knock from their number 11 Agar that made their respectable for them in the first innings KP is a doubt for the next game so who would you like to see come in? I would love James Taylor to come in. Very good batsman and a superb fielder. Even if KP doesnt make it I would bring Taylor in for Johnny Bairstow. He hasnt really took his chance
You say Bairstow hasn't taken his chance but he's still the third highest run maker of the series. For KP I would have just bought in Bopara but he's injured so I think i'd bring in Taylor or Morgan. Both can handle a bat well enough and are handy in the field. Then i'd move Bell to 4th and have either Taylor or Morgan at 5th.
