Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Hopefully the test is not rained-out or draw. England looked confident and they deserve to be at the top, but don't count out the Aussies this is just the first inngs.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

I always thought that Giles was garbage, but he seems to be a half decent bowler.
Gotta say I seriosuly underrated Simon Jones as well. The guy can really swing the ball.
The english bowling lineup is superb. I think the Aussies might be in some real trouble.

cant wait.. still another half hour for the match to begin..

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Salam...

Day 3 start delayed due to rain

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Lunch being taken, covers still on the pitch as its’ raining and with totally overcast conditions, I don’t think there will be any play possible today. :smack:]

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

damn this rain

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Weather :mad: , I hope it doesn’t save Aussie a$$ from getting spanked.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Gotta give it up for my boy Warnie. First he got 600 wickets and now he's proving to be the last hope of Aussies, just to save their face.

Great fight!

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

weather has changed drastically and sun is shinning. There is good chance that we will have some play today.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

play will resume in 15 minutes but only for 6 overs:(

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

this break has broken English momentum and gven aussies much needed breathing space.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Hello again and there is some news from Old Trafford. Play will begin at 1810 local time (1710 GMT) and go on for 6 overs if possible.

jones dropped warne's catch on flintoff

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

too damn bad. I was really hoping the Aussies would be finished off today.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Warne is perhaps heading for a century.

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Warne and Gillespie save the follow on :(

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Rain saved England. :(

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Yaar u continue to amaze (Spelling??) me and i guess a lot others … If there were no Rain it would’ve suited english plans to perfection coz over night they lead Aussies by 200+ runs on a weary pitch which’ll crumble more over the next tow days … As Aussies will have to bat last (in 4th Innings) even a Target of 200 is very dificult to achieve …

But what am i telling u … i knew all this already before making the above comment :slight_smile:

Re: Eng V Aus - 3rd Test Match.

Jones scored some useful runs but he is performing badly behind stumps. Missed stumping and a catch. Anyways England is still on top but all depends on how quickly they can finish off aussie inning.
