Thread: Ashes 2013!

Went to day one and two. Enjoyed both days, did not find it boring. Had to come home though. SWMBO would not give me a leave pass for day three and four, so have/will watch it on the telly.

What a game. Chasing 201 tomorrow. If Warner puts his head down and bats responsibly I think we can win.

I reckon the atmosphere there would have been unreal or in your case real.

It was pretty awesome, especially when Johnson was bowling at the lower order late in the day(one). Reminded me of the D.K Lillee days.

More great cricket. When it gets really tough we can distinguish the real quality from the vain show ponies. Lyon deserved his wickets. He bowled really well in the first innings and was overdue for a haul. Pietersen has finally stood up when it counted in this Test. Its a close contest and that's great to watch.

I just finished watching the T20 between Brisbane heat and Hobart hurricanes.
Wow was it exciting , records being broken and a close game.
Looking forward to more cricket again tomorrow

Tomorrow yes, hit and giggle stuff, you can have it. Not the least bit interested.

by far the worst thing about the boxing day test- KOK retiring :-(

the guy has changed the concept of radio commentary.

You got that right. I am devastated that KOK has retired, nearly as tragic as losing Allan McGilvray.

Legends of the microphone.

As for the cricket, what a match. Hardly missed a ball, live and the telly and I was glued to it.

Go Aussies.
