The Ashes, baby!
Mid Life Crisis Man Wrote:I was a little surprised at the pessimism expressed after the end of play by people such as Jonathan Agnew and David Gower - Australia is not the team it once was, and have always been susceptible to collapse if the attack turns savage. A bit of extra spin, a bit of aggro from the quicks and who knows? There's still plenty of life in this match yet.

Cool

Day 3 close: now you know why these knowledgable types are so pessimistic. Ordinary Aussie side at best made to look like world-beaters by toothless England attack. I for one do not appreciate Strauss as a captain. Making Vaughan look like Brearly so far.

One note of optimism for my lot; we're traditionally woeful in the series opener. A draw would be a terrific result for us at Cardiff.

The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph
