The Ashes

Any sport that has a tea break is a joke.

Now that's what I don't get...cricket is supposed to be British (how can it not be with a tea break?!), yet we're absolutely hopeless playing it.

Btw, we won the toss and have finished the first day on 247-4.

w00t!

We've won the test match at Trent Bridge.

We finished the second day on 447 all out, and Australia finished 218 all out.

They followed on, and were all out for 347, leaving us with a total of 129 to reach.

We managed it, with 3 wickets to spare to go into the lead 2 games to 1.

We only need a draw at The Oval to win the Ahses for the first time in 18 years! Australia need to win outright.

Come on!

WE WON!

ENGLAND HAVE WON THE ASHES!

A superb innings of 159 for Kevin Pietersen batted Austarlia right out of the game, forcing the Umpires to decide no more play should be played as Australia had no chance!

We are now number 1 in the world in Cricket!


Btw, now is the time for Cricket to be explained to those who don't know...

So... Everyone but you?

Erm...most probably yes. Me and PureRebel. And anoyone else who is English, or Australian, or Pakistani, or West Indian...and so on. All the people from countries where Cricket is a main sport, please say "Aye".
