The Ashes: First Test ****LIVE IN-PLAY****

England have been so dominant in this game,they deserve a win.

Adelaide is even flatter than the GABBA. Will Australia even get 10 wickets next match?

Double hundred for Cook. Well played

100 for the top 3

Cricket is in bad shape when Cook can get a double century and when Swann is the number 2 ranked bowler in the world



Cricket

And when Mitchell Johnson is 7th ranked bowler in the world



Cricket

And when Trott averages over 50 in test cricket



Todays standard of cricket

Morne Morkel 3rd ranked bowler in cricket



He is the right handed version of Mitchell Johnson(cannot bowl straight)



Cricket

England

Bowling: Beautiful line and length with some movement beating the bat 260 million times

Batting: Bat positively by putting the bad balls away and playing some shots


Australia


Bowling: Bowl wides and pies


Batting : Bat slower then Geoff Boycott by letting bad balls go or by blocking it





Australia = Derp de derp Rob Sscniheder da derp

Wides and Pies

North has 1 inning left to save his test career

mellow, surely after that pathetic shot his fate is sealed

If North made a 50+ here, he would be safe for another test.

If he made 100, he would be safe for the series.

For our sake on a betting perspective I hope he stays in.

Battler - agreed!

before the series started i wanted both Hussey and North to stay in the squad. North to make money off and Hussey cos he may actually keep Australia in this series.
