What a Thriling game Cricket

[Adster]

they maybe hope for you aust do in the past have a habbit of getting butterfly's chasing small total runs

there last test last was against India chasing 97 and were bowled out for 92 on that dusty wicket! I can remember darren Gough too taken a hat trick once with aust chasing liek 130 to win

[manker]

Yeah, I remember (well I don't really remember as such, but I did see a re-run) Bob Willis bowling the Aussies out when they were chasing a small total back in 1981. England went on to win the Ashes series 4-1.

Not gonna happen this time tho

[Adster]

jeez that was a unbealaive game

i think england were behind by by abotu 300 runs needed 100 runs to avoid teh follow on botham and bob willis they were 8 down botham smashed it around while willis hung around and they manage to avoide the follow on and get a lead of about 120??

aust were 0-50 and willis took 8 wickets was incrediable remember reading about that and seeing some of it

the india game a few years ago too with teh famous Laxmon and dravid innings where they where india got bowled out for about 150 then aust got 400

india then 2 for 20 Tendulker out?? there gone!!!!

now way laxman and dravid come in both get double centries and aust fail to chase about 170 to win!

I remember watching some of that game on Sky Sports at the time, it was incredible - one of the best games I've ever seen, if not the best.

I thought India would get better and better after that but they've gone backwards.


Btw, you were on about the Aussies being arrogant a while back - what about Sourav Ganguly? He is the most arrogant cricketer I've ever seen. He recently had a hissy fit because the selectors didn't pick him for a Asia one day team.

The big poof.

Ganguly's girly strop:

"It is a raw deal. I may not have scored in my four one-dayers this year, but what about the one-day runs I have? Don't they have value?"

"Am I always to be the whipping boy? I am disgusted."

He's always saying stuff like that

He's got 5 wickets and England are 154-9 now.

It's a good job we have teh Ashely Giles to bamboozle you with his spin magicery. He'll get nine wickets and Australia will be bowled out for seven in their next innings.

The seven runs you do get will be extras

[Adster]
