Australia got a lucky draw, it happens. Overall England edged the series but not enough to force a win, certainly didn't deserve to lose though so was nice to come back from 2-0 down. A lot will be written about how good England were in coming back (and they were) but I don't really understand how Australia imploded in the manner they did, they were honestly terrible for parts of the last 2 games - I reckon they were tired.

It's funny that those who actually know and follow cricket on the thread aren't complaining about the Manchester game as the fact it rained a match off is part of the game (and the weather wasn't a surprise) and those who don't follow cricket are really hoping we will. Football fans really are more analogous to American sports fans than British ones, we'll be having penalty shoot-outs at the end of drawn EPL games thanks to the likes of you lot.
