Always nice to play our cousins from down under no matter what format

 

Mr Bell continuing to prove me right and some of us wrong

 

Woops hadn't realised it was on. Thanks for starting the thread

41 is hardly proving your point Anyway it's different in pyjama cricket. when he proves he can do it in 2 innings I'll change my mind.

 

it was probably Andy Flower seeing Belly in his pyjamas that got him his place in the team

 

Do you recall the 2011 season 2nd only to Cook IIRC

 

Ho ho ho

2 more wins and we're home dry

 

It was a good game, you can't beat a game against the aussies. There's always the extra spice and passion

Watson looks like he's been enjoying married life, he looks fatter than normal....

Bring on Sunday

 

Yeh rain rain more rain!!

 

Is it right that prior to yesterday England had never won a ODI at Lords when they've batted first?

Those records are tumbling if so

 

Against the Aussies I think but I may be wrong.

 

Australia, can we play you every week

 

If we manage a 5 - 0 whitewash we get the #1 status. How good would that be

 

#1 in all formats would be nice, but this summer reminds me of 2008 when we were 4-0 up against SA and nthe 5th ODI was washed out.

We're looking very strong at the top of the order though

 

3-0 ??

Weather looks very unpredictable looking at a few website, from light rain through to thunder storms

This facking weather is getting beyond a joke now.







Should have stayed in oz........

 

Start delayed due to rain.
We might need this

 

Cool Link

 

Going well so far today, we seem to have complete control over the Aussies at the moment. Can we play another Ashes series now please.

 

That's it, we've won the series

Fair play to Bell, finally showed some consistency at last and had a great series.

Also good for Bopara to put the nerves behind him and hopefully cement his place in the team.

 

I knew it, just as I give him some praise he returns to form

Shame about the weather, we'd have slaughtered them 5 - 0 otherwise. What a great series, finally getting to grips with ODI's thanks to Cook

Bring on the Saffers on the 19th

 

Even Ravi did OK

 

Are you feeling ok?


We kicked their *****. Fantastic job.
