Are these the same two teams? With Aus 164/9 at stumps it makes you wonder.Quote:

Good to see the true form of the sport still getting great numbers.:)
Its engrossing Test cricket alright. For the first time in the series the two sides are looking more evenly matched. This has come down to determination and strategy, not a big slog like T20. We might get a real down to the wire contest now, which would be great for cricket.
I watched both! My preference is Test cricket without a doubt, there's nothing like the drawn out chess game and battle of wits, especially between two old enemies like Aus and Eng.
However, I do find myself strangely drawn towards the razzmatazz of the T20, especially as SWMBO and my son will happily watch it. And the game last night was a good'un. :angel:
It will be interesting to see what the ratings are when England play Australia in the T20
Yeah, I'll be watching those ones, but not the local big bash garbage - the teams mean nothing, so I find I can't get excited about one team or the other, so it makes it doubly pointless IMO.
Well done Lyon, great bowling. Bought up his 100'th test wicket, and then got a 5 wicket haul.:arms::arms::arms:
And the chase is on.:D
yes it was great. He has really excelled in his bowling this series and has been quite impressive as a batter to.Quote:

He's a top bowler so why doesn't he just stick to that and shut his gob?
AlanH.
PS. I'm glad that Hilfenhaus is not in the team as his near girly tearful crying and covering his face if a batsmen hit the ball was dreadful to watch.
