Don't know if any other Cricket fans here, but 2 hours in and the Aussies are reeling, 97 for 5, one was hit with second ball of the day, blood and everything.

I am a massive fan of the cricket, and play it myself. Am gutted that I am at work and not at Lords or in front of the telly in my garage with a crisp bottle of lager.
England are doing alright - but don't forget a few years back we had the Aussies something stupid like 80 for 8 on the opening day of the first test at Edgbaston - everyone was saying England were going to piss the Ashes - then they came back and won the test on the Sunday. Still - must have nice seeing Harmy batter Hayden - look forward to the highlights!

Well yes, obviosuly this good start means nothing without our innings in reply. THe wicket maybe an incredibly poor batting surface - The fact that Australia won the toss and decided to bat, seem to suggest that they felt it was as good as it was going to get. Don't be surprised to see England post around 250* for a first innings total - Its more or lessover for Australias first innings now - 179-9.
*Hopefully it will be nearer 500 - But I have seen too many collapses.
