Wycombe Fox Posted 10 February 2007 Posted 10 February 2007 As we won when I started the thread for the 1st final I thought I'd better get in quick! C'mon England Must get up to watch the whole match this time!! Don't ya just hate it when you screw up your original post but only notice once you've clicked the important button (see edit)!
lcfc_jme Posted 10 February 2007 Posted 10 February 2007 I said this for the last final, and I'll say it again now - we're going to get beat. Probably badly. Australia will want revenge and they won't want to lose this tournament, especially to us.
Matt Posted 10 February 2007 Posted 10 February 2007 I thought about starting a thread at about 8.30pm/9pm time but then thought "nah don't wanna be the one to jinx it" I wanna get up in time for the game too. C'Mon England. Lets make it a perfect weekend. England Rugby, Leicester and England Cricket win! And then I can have some gloating rights over my reletives and friend in Oz! Just a shame England started winning after I left Australia! Although they were losing before I went aswell so before anyone says it was because I was there - Your wrong!
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 England batted 1st. Australia started batting just, Currently 2-0, Australia need 245 to win, Not a great target set by England but at the same time not bad.
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Haydos gone! Caught by Collingwood. 25-1 C'Mon England lets get a few more out early!
Geo V Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 I said this for the last final, and I'll say it again now - we're going to get beat. Probably badly. Australia will want revenge and they won't want to lose this tournament, especially to us. We`ve got them two down and Gilchrist should have been out 3 times but has got away with streaky shots. COME ON ENGLAND!!!!
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Its raining now, and VERY heavy. If it stays like this there will be no result and it goes to the 3rd test
Wycombe Fox Posted 11 February 2007 Author Posted 11 February 2007 Good morning - so much for getting up early We're doing well again - giving the aussies another game Rain rain go away etc etc and take Duckworth Lewis with you!
jaffa1970 Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Gilchrist gone 1st ball after the rain...you guys are home...bloody good effort after what you endured in the test series.
Fez of Mahrez Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Gilchrist gone 1st ball after the rain...you guys are home...bloody good effort after what you endured in the test series. Cheeky bastard! Still a lot of work to do! EDIT: 40-4. Well okay, maybe we are? :P
jaffa1970 Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 me.....cheeky...damn straight..also realistic..aussies cannot play the swinging ball..as was evidenced in the 05 ashes series gilchrist looked like rab nailed to the ground as a corner comes in so poor was his footwork!!
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Good morning - so much for getting up early We're doing well again - giving the aussies another game Rain rain go away etc etc and take Duckworth Lewis with you! Same here , I woke up at 8am and though "Bollocks" Oh well, I woke up in time just to see England start bowling. 78-5, Quite happy with that, We look quite comfortable but at the same time the Aussies are looking like they could easily start a comeback, If we bowl another Aussie out I think its ours, if the Aussies keep hitting 4 which they have started to do in the last few balls I think there could be a challenge!
Simi Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 63 for 5 (12.0 overs) Get in Freddie :thumbsup: Great Stuff. Come on England, please win just to shut up the arrogant Aussies.
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 :thumbsup: Great Stuff. Come on England, please win just to shut up the arrogant Aussies. Some are arrogant but not all, The majority are ok, When I was over there I never had one bit of gloating, The only bit of gloating I got was of my cousin's and that because they knew they'd get away with it, but there mates and other people I met over there never said anything about it. The only comment I got was when I was playing Cricket and they "do you wanna bowl" I said "Nah i'm shit at bowling" and they said "We know your shit your English but go ahead!" and that was just abit of banter. And when we win i'll be straight on the e-mail! The reason they have got the arrogrant tag is because there born winners they care about winning, and they push themselves to win, and here and other countries that underacheive is down to not putting enough effort in, i.e - Football we have world class players in our international team its just that IMO if they gave a little more effort alittle more pushing themselves to win we would do alot better! And that goes for most sports in England/Other underacheiving countries. Cricket restarts. C'Mon England!
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Anyone else see that? NOT OUT! WTF When that happened to Freddie during the Ashes it was definetly out, exactly the same just happened! Bloody Umpires give us nothing!
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 132 - 6 Caught by Flintoff. C'Mon 1 more lads and we've won! C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets get Brett Lee out!
Ajax Treesdown Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 132 - 6 Caught by Flintoff. C'Mon 1 more lads and we've won! C'MON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets get Brett Lee out! 132-7
Simi Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 139-8!!!! BARMY ARMY! 61 from 31 to win Just in the gap
Matt Posted 11 February 2007 Posted 11 February 2007 Rain Stops Play again. IF it's still raining in 6 minutes, They think it will be the game finished = England Win! YESSSSSSSSSSS! Bring on the World Cup
