Thread Name: BS: Bury 'The Ashes'?
Subject: RE: BS: Bury 'The Ashes'?
This very nearly was a premature start to the one day series, wasn't it? The match will be over by tea time today, if not by lunch time. I had thought they could at least string it out for a fourth day, but there is only a remote chance of that happening now. England will lose by an innings and ca. 200 runs. Where does this stand on the list of all time whackings of an England cricket team? Am I right in believing that there were some even more ignominious disasters against Australia and the West Indies in the eighties? I do not like to see England humiliated like this, but to some extent it is a result well deserved by the bastards who booed Ponting the other day. I despise that scum. Well done Australia.
