Yeah. 90's alright. You get better the more you play it.

Ponting was actually very gracious and dignified in defeat.. :o

He was honest enough to admit that his side had been outplayed over the whole five days, particularly in the first innings.

Still a very long way to go in the series. The probable return of Brett Lee next week may tilt the balance slightly more towards Australia.

i agree entirely but lets enjoy it while we can...it dont happen very often.....ponting is a great cricketer i have nothing but admiration for him....but like most england fans we love to give him stick...Brett Lee now theres another story !

I haven't forgotten or forgiven Ponting for his anti-Leicester comments last month.

But sometimes you have to give credit where it's due.

Talking of which, well done Freddie for stuffing those "alky" taunts back down the Aussie fans' throats. :D

Let's pray he can stay fit enough to play in the rest of the series..

Hope so too. He's ended his Test career at Lords on the sweetest note. Lovely to see.

Brett Lee has never really been that succesful against England in England. I'd perhaps be a bit more fearful of Stuart Clark, especially as he has a point to prove having been left out.

He has a test average of over 30 throughout his entire career; its not like his record against England is anomalous, he's just not a world beater. Good competitive cricketer who will charge in all day and bowl the occasional beauty, but nothing for England to be frightened about. Its not like Warne or McGrath coming back!

I agree with you completely, he has never been a world beater but even so, he has over 300 wickets at 30.8. In the modern era of bat dominated test cricket that is a pretty reasonable record.

Against England in England, Lee has taken 29 wickets at 45.44. That is a pretty big discrepancy between statistics.

Anyone else think Flintoff's mrs has a touch of Jolie about her. :wub:

I'm glad they showed her a few times :wub:

Much better than looking at Gilchrist or Bob Willis.
