gburns57au Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Without Vaughn, Pieterson, Anderson, Lewis, Tremlet, Trescothic England wallop the overrated Ozzzies creating massive doubt in the convicts ability to retain the World Cup.Will they force the final into a decider? Depleted ??....only 2 or the players mentioned played on the tour and the only one who may have got a game was Vaughn. Wallopped....they scraped in with 3 balls to spare... Poor umpiring again marred the match with both teams having batsmen wrongly given out. The Poms played well...the Aussies not as well as they had previously...both sides were guilty of poor fielding. The Poms again relied on the usual batsmen to make their runs, the Aussie middle order didnt fire... Now for round 2.....this Aussie team rarely lose twice in a row to the same team.

lampard10 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 [Now for round 2.....this Aussie team rarely lose twice in a row to the same team. But they just have, haven't they. Or don't you follow cricket. First by 92 runs, now by 4 wickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Mouse Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Well done England, you finally have your day in the sun.....or was it in the rain??? The victory to the lads was well deserved. They played some exciting cricket, with flashes of individual brilliance. This may serve as a wake up call to the Aussie selectors and their insane insistence of resting key players in games leading to the finals. A star bowler or batsman needs match play to retain/improve their sharpness. Handing them the drinks trolley job leads to their demise. Key players should only be rested in order to overcome an injury. This is not an excuse for England's victory. They plugged away, worked hard and improved their game. Let's hope they can continue to shine as a team. The overall game of cricket will benefit as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashes, what Ashes???? Great match, had to beat it pronto from Sid's bar in Manila, full of b00dy Aussies crying in their beer (and a couple of Septics wondering what all the fuss was about), most enjoyable :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soi lurker Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Its about time, england put on a good performance. A form of consitencey and we would have had a challenging season. Cricket is much better off when all teams are firing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
