2009 Ashes Series - England vs. Australia **Spoilers**

Could we still enforce the follow on? What score do the Aussies have to reach, if they haven't already, to avoid the follow on?

LOL inside edge too, more fun from the umpires

200 behind, so 132 is needed to avoid

I believe it's within 200 runs, so 133.

Commentator saying that it could've been bat first.

Swings & roundabouts!

This afternoon session has shaken things up a bit! Trust this to be the day when my TMS feed isn't working

We really need to take Katich to capitalise on this.

Lucky number 13..

Law 13

(a) In a two innings match of 5 days or more, the side which bats first and leads by at least 200 runs shall have the option of requiring the other side to follow their innings.

(b) The same option shall be available in two innings matches of shorter duration with the minimum required leads as follows:
(i) 150 runs in a match of 3 or 4 days;
(ii) 100 runs in a 2-day match;
(iii) 75 runs in a 1-day match.

Damn straight! After the Strauss decision, there can't be too many complaints.

Kattich gone!

Oh dear Australia.

 

[KaneStatton]

[Sankari]

Ah well. Was fun while it lasted.

 

[McBain]

I hope they steam some into Johnson now, what a clown that guy is.

 

[moremoney]

Swann and Broad, two bowlers who have not been great this series, have now joined the party.

 

[McBain]

Haddin gone!

111-7

Broad bowled, apparently an absolute beauty.

 

[KaneStatton]

OMG""""!!!!!!

 

[moremoney]

Broad 5 for. Hadin, you are gone.

 

[MarcLister]

Bowled. Broad's 3rd Test five fer.

I was in the bank an hour ago and it came up on the radio that the Aussies were 80-1 and thought to myself that we've got no chance. Just got home and woooooooooooow
