Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18 -- Australia won by 206 runs

Didn’t see a thread so I thought why not take the honour.

3RD Test starting today at Perth.

Australia leads the 5 test series so far by 2-0. You think it be 3-0 or 2-1?

Date & Timing
Dec 14-18 - 02:30 GMT that means 8:30 CST and 9:30 EST.

I hope England fights back for the sake of excitement.

Re: Ashes - 3RD Test

Looks like 3/0 coming up.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

^ It might be.

Its 66/2 right now, Ponting is gone on 2 and both Harmison and Hoggard are looking great this morning. Let see.

Panesar still has to bowl.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

On the first ball of his 2nd over Panesar bowled Langer.

wowowowowowowoow!!!!!

OZ in trouble 69/3 at lunch.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Panesar bowled him! atleast there was spin on the ball unlike Giles guy.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

24.1Panesar to Langer, OUT, And Panesar strikes! It's taken him just seven balls to get his first Ashes wicket and that pitches outside off and beats Langer's forward defensive, knocking back off stump. Panesar is immediately celebrating, running around in a loop, whooping and beaming. Giles on the balcony has a full beaming smile, delighted with England's progress

itnaa jo tum muskura rahay ho
woh konsa gham hay jisay chhupa rahay ho

or is it that he is burning inside?

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

kiya ghum hai jisko chupa rahe ho!

sahi kaha bilkul. Even Hafeez has more spin than over rated Giles.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

No one celebrates better than Monty Panesar in world cricket. I just love it!

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Australia 184/6.

51.4 Panesar to Gilchrist, OUT, but Panesar has struck again! This time Gilchrist comes forward to defend and the ball cannons off his pad onto his inside edge and balloons up to Ian Bell at short leg and he scrambles over and takes a catch over his shoulder at a stretch. Great catch, Gilchrist doesn't wait for the decision and Monty's on fire.

3 wickets for Panesar so far.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Panesar made an immediate impact on game. Why am I not surprised?

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

and Monty panesar takes a five wicket haul. :k: Awesome performance

Aussis 234-8

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

9 down.i think flntoff and duncan fletcher should resign if england goes on to lose the series.what a blunder not to include Panesar in the first 2 test matches

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Panesar chaa gaya hai :k:

A zaNNaTTay DaaR thaPPar on Giles and Selctors’ face :bhungra:

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Brilliant bowling by Panesar. Both Fletcher and Flintoff must be feeling embarrased about not playing him in the first two test matches.

England 36/1

Cook gone.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

42/2

bell gone as well.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

A brilliant performance and aussies are on the backfoot.

Depsite being two down, England canforce the pace of the match unless of course they press the self destruction button.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

Giles is a slow medium pacer. He can't really be called a spinner because a spinner by definition must be able to turn the ball.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

England are in a good position but I won't be surprised if they get bowled out for < 200 or Australia put up a sizeable total in the second knock. Australia still favourites IMO. To beat this Australian side you have to do well for 15 out of 15 sessions. Even one bad session against them can cost you dearly as England found out on the last day in the second test

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

It will be fun to watch the Ashes but CBN will switch the stream to India vs SA game. That suck, oh well atleast by the time India vs SA starts the Ashes may have progressed to tea time.

Re: The Ashes - Australia vs England - 3rd Test @ Perth, Dec 14-18

I am phoning ATN's office, and requesting they put India vs. South Africa on the Tamil channel or something for a short period of time. Who the hell watches the Tamil channel anyways?

They can put a little bulletin on the bottom telling viewers about the short change in scheduling.
