Title: Only 3 days to go.. Post by: Nils on Monday, July 18, 2005, 21:36:01 Til the first day of the ashes. It is going to be class. There is so much to look forward to. Pieterson on debut and some untried people. Flintoff has never played a test v the ozzies. And Hoggard has improved 10 fold since he last played them. Simon Jones and Geraint Jones have never played them and Strauss. Vaughn has dropped to 3 in the batting. Harmison has also become a key player compared to a change bowler. In fact it is fair to say that sunce we last played the Ozzies the team is totally different while the Ozzies have changed little. They still have Lee, McGrath, Gillespee, Gilchrist, Hayden, Langer, Martyn, Warne, Kasprowich and MacGill (although I think they were in the squad but didn't actually play. In fact it is fair to say that they are nearly unchanged apart from the retirement of the Waugh brothers.
Oh dear I am so excited! Title: Only 3 days to go.. Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, July 18, 2005, 21:41:40 I thought it was at Lord's?

Quote Is it a 10.30am or 11am start? The first test starts at 10.25a.m according to my Guardian guide to the ashes. Title: Only 3 days to go..

(i need to make cricket slightly interesting so i don't mis out) National Pride suggests you should back England. http://www.spacespider.net/emo/signs049.gif Rational thinking suggest putting everything you own on the Aussies. Title: Only 3 days to go.. Post by: Johno on Tuesday, July 19, 2005, 10:37:17 have a bit of national pride! :wink:
Title: Only 3 days to go.. Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, July 31, 2005, 10:10:03 I can't see us winning the series, but losing 3-1 or 3-2 should be the minimum aim. I think losing by more than 2 tests would be considered a disaster!
