myp2p.eu is usually a good place to look for things like that.
As a neutural spectator (but a complete cricket tragic), I'm just hoping for closely fought, interesting test cricket.
Down with Twenty20! |

im an aussie. would love to see another 5-0 for us,
but thats just not possible this time.
good to see that our bowlers have learned to reverse the ball. that should keep us in the contest. bugger that lee is injured. if lee can get fit for the last three tests and bowl like he did in the warm up game, england will be in real trouble.
surely this first test is hauritz's last chance.
i say 2-1 to australia, or maybe a drawn series. |

england are batting first. for the punters amongst us, i think they are good value at $3.10 at the moment to win this first one.
new pitch, lee not playing, hauritz is playing, and they have pretty good spinners.
im not backing them though!  |

Hauritz is a gun!, just you watch him get a 10 for....
The Aussies have banked on old stars when it may be time to lay them to rest. Let's see what happens to Flintoff, will he break down too?! |

Although it gave me a twinge of homesickness, hearing Geoff Boycott commenting on Pietersen's dismissal yesterday put a smile on my face:

I love Boycott's accent, it's funny as. He has great incisive commentry. I wish the Aussies would listen to him like the time when Australia lost the Ashes due to swing bowling, "you've got to the play ball laaate", I wish Hayden and Co. would have listened. |

yeah, thats pretty funny!
i havent seen any of the test yet, but i have seen him bowl before and in the warm up game and there was nothing close to test material.
i wouldnt go as far as to say he was totally useless. he might have a moment here and there but the trouble is that whatever he might get out of a given pitch, the english spinners will get double.
we'll see how we go in our innings. flintoff can be very good. if he stays fit and theit other seamers use the old ball well, then we might lose.
either way, its guarenteed to be a great series!! |

fantastic hundreds from these two!
249/1! who wouldve thunk it?
we might just be able to save this test! that would be a great result after losing the toss on this wicket.
waiting to see what this pitch is going to do. england will be very dissappointed thus far. |

This Hughes guy is hilarious. His stance and technique are all over the place, but he seems to be effective.
Good duel with Flintock yesterday. |

Hmmm... how important will that 39 minute last wicket stand be come the end of the series? If I was Ponting I would be livid about that one getting away. |
