The Batman Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 shouldn't be too difficult, i was quite impressed by the bowlers, but a few too many no-balls. good warm up for the Australians. i expect our marcus (not stewart) will be out for a duck shouldn't be watching it as i have 4 exams next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinman-is-god Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 Tres is 78 not out, good lad The game is all a bit farcical, i think that we are only playing them to get our averages up. It would be nice to see a century from Marcus though, for what its worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinman-is-god Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I honestly think we have a chance in the Ashes. We have a good batting line-up, with our top 3 batters all averaging at least 43. Harmison, Hoggard, Jones and Freddie are a good set of bowlers. We can only beat Bangladesh, and in effect it is a no-win situation, but if we can get our stars match fit, and confident, maybe just maybe, Ashes victory will occur. I very much doubt it though!

The Batman Posted May 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 we should have declared at tea, rather than have they overs afterwards, i know they are 5 wickets down already but i think we should have got it over and done with earlier. should have declared at 150... ,,, i know it's harsh but it's true..

lukejones2 Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 I personally think that these tests are the biggest waste of time ever!! The players would be better used playing county cricket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
