First up, which would you pick - Chris Read or Geraint Jones?
It would have to Chris Read for me. I just think he's better in all areas of his game than Jones. Fletcher doesn't seem to think so though...
Fair play to him doing it at this time at least he's honest to admit it.
Strauss was really unlucky to get given out when he made no contact with the bat. Warne was getting so much movement. He bowled to Pietersen outside leg, bounced and turned right behind him and flicked off stump. England struggled to get any runs at all. They were hovering around a run an over about lunch.
Australia found it easier to score runs and frustrated England with the ball.
England now must win 2 and at least draw 1 to retain. It's pretty much over I think.
9 wickets lost for 60 odd runs to snatch defeat from the jaws of a draw.
Think the ashes are going back to Australia :(
At least it won't be another defeat and the performance was a lot better than the first test so hopefully it will give us some confidence back and we can improve further in the 3rd test.
Highlights: BBC
And on BBC2 around about 11/12ish I think.
Edit - sorry 10pm
Very, very well done to Collingwood and Pietersen. Now, where can I watch some highlights?
Over to the bowlers now to put in a good performance and if we can force the follow on and the weather stays fine we have a good chance of leveling the series.
