The Ashes Tour 2013

[mad mary]

David Warner just made 186no for Aust A against S.Africa.

Due to come back to England on Monday.

'bout time he did something positive ...Smacks of desperation if the selectors include him in the starting 11 for the 3rd test though,the lad's an oddball & needs to be banished to shield cricket so he can sort his anger & alcohol issues out!!

How would the other batters feel who tow the 'discipline' line feel if Warner gets back in?

[Old Croc]

Update:

Warner out for 193.

Maxwell 103 no

England beating Australia at Cricket and Yorkshire on top of the County Championship. Time to grow my hair and sideboards long and search out a pair of floral bellbottoms and Cuban heels

Yes, well now the rest will be aware, too.

Obviously it was a stiff test, South Africa A declared on 617 and it was a draw.

Meanwhile, England announce the squad for the 3rd Leathering test match:

England squad: Alastair Cook (Essex) (Capt), James Anderson (Lancashire), Jonny Bairstow (Yorkshire), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Tim Bresnan (Yorkshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Monty Panesar (Sussex), Kevin Pietersen (Surrey), Matt Prior (Sussex), Joe Root (Yorkshire), Graeme Swann (Nottinghamshire), James Taylor (Nottinghamshire), Chris Tremlett (Surrey), Jonathan Trott (Warwickshire)

[bigbamboo]

Let's get rid of this test match crap and bring on the one-dayers I say

By the end of this series that may be as long as the Test matches last.

[7by7]

Panasar and Taylor both performing well at Hove; which no doubt influenced the selectors. Especially as Taylor had been asked to play for Sussex in this game so they could have a look at him.

Oh, The Aussie top order didn't do too bad, either; 366 for 5 declared with only Wade failing.

Scorecard.

[Chicog]

Good knock from Taylor, should slot in nicely for KP if required.

Yep i definitely keeping a Plan B for things to do on monday. Maybe in the unlikely event of it lasting that long all australian nationals should be given free entry on monday

Correct.

Should Australia lose this match I believe it is their worst losing streak in 100+ years

Any idea how that losing streak compares to other Cricketing Nations ... say the Poms for example ...

Bookman meant "when".

You pair have the look of a couple of rabbits....staring at a pot of stock and a carving knife.....

I thought a couple of them look suspiciously like certain members of the current squad.

[BookMan]

Australia does hold the test Cricket record for most consecutive wins at 16 .... done twice.

So it seems only fair that we hold the opposite end as well

They could be mentors judging by the current series

"They could be mentors judging by the current series"

It's certainly a rare picture........no-one's holding a beer.

Clearly I was wrong about them being mentors in that case.

We also hold the record for the most consecutive ODI's (21) as well.

Well, we have to have something to hang our hat on

[Will27]

Did anyone mention the most World cup wins also?
