To all the Aussies. Very,very hard luck lads. I cannot gloat over that. What a great test match. :o

One plus point is that yorkie can in with his mate to watch the Oz demise and ended up having three beers each.

England clinch thrilling victory

Second Test, Edgbaston (day four)

England 407 & 182 beat Australia 308 & 279 by two runs

England survived a last-ditch Australia fight back to complete a thrilling two-run victory in the second Test and level the Ashes series at 1-1.

Australia were on the brink of victory when last man Michael Kasprowicz gloved Steve Harmison behind.

Kasprowicz and Brett Lee, who hit 41 not out, put on 59 for the last wicket, chasing a ground record target of 282.

Shane Warne had begun the day with a defiant 42 before he trod on his wicket playing back to Andrew Flintoff.

Flintoff, who did the damage on the third day with an innings of 73 in England's second innings 182 then taking three wickets, finished with 4-79.

Sorry, I can't see the man of the series listed here!!

He's got the record for the number of sixes hit in a test against the Aussies

6 wickets in the Edgbaston test

141 runs over two innings

MoM performance at Edgebaston

**FREDDIE FLINTOFF**

The only mistake he made in the second test was not breaking Brett Lee's hand!!

1 all, very close game, bet you soapies were sh1tting bricks, well done lads.

Edgebaston has never really been our best groung result wise remember.

Sh1tting bricks! Jeez! I bit my nails down to my wrists. Good job Yorkie got up to go for a p1ss, just before the wicket fell or we might not have done it. :o

The big question here was and still is, " why did Ponting make that decision " still it's history now and has breathed a bit of life into the series and cricket in general. :o

I would imagine he dismissed the England 3-11 as no hopers (barring Pieterson)

and reckoned if he got the two openers out the rest would follow. That and a nagging fear in the back of his mind about Englands pace attack on a greeish wicket..............................................it all boils down to, we've got you thinking, if not worried.

Lampard...worried :o ???......ur guys would be worried, about how ur "oh so great bowling attack" couldnt dismiss our tail until 3 runs from victory......
