*****Official Ashes thread*****

LOLHaddin out for a duck...50-3. Shaping up to be interesting, at this rate Aussies will be all out for 100 and England will win:p
 
WTF??? Aussies really have a deathwish to be beaten 4-0 lololol.

Utter trash from them, deserve to lose this.
 
To be fair though they are 200 ahead with only 48 overs left, they aren't playing this like a traditional 2nd innings, it more like a T20 game.

True, i suppose they want to get a high enough target to bowl England out. Seems like the pitch is now more bowler friendly compared to the last 4 days...well 3 days lol.
 
Is Warne drunk? Be prepared to lose to win, seems to be his catchphrase today!

He's trolling, Atherton explained to him that we wanted to preserve our unbeaten record and Warne just went off on one again, I think he's just bitter that we never give Australia a decent chance of winning.

Haha, I love Warne but he's doing my brick in. its not England's choice to risk losing to win, he should be asking Australia if they are prepared to because with each over played its one less for England and thus unlikely to tempt us. The run rate required is already over 5 and if it gets much more we wont even bother looking at it. So Australia, are you prepared to risk losing to win because right now it looks like youre not!.

Good declaration from Australia, if they had batted much longer we would have just shut up shop. It's probably tempting now for us to try to win and finish the series on a real high.
 
This will end in tears for the Aussies but with the way the pitch is playing today, reckon there could be game on here but at the moment id favour England to win this rather than the Aussies.

Come on Aussies, get a win for pride at least:p
 
I wouldn't put it past unadventurous Alastair Cook to see this through to a painfully anti-climactic end. Like he's going to go after 227. (I may eat my words)
