So it begins - Ashes 2010/2011

So here we go England Vs Australia in Australia.

Who do you think will win?
Who are you supporting?
who will be man of the match at Brisbane?
man of the series?
series wicket taker?
Final score?

Personally i'm supporting England and i think we will win this series, just, at 2-1, but good luck Australia, your gonna need it!!!


Barmy Army!

England to win
swann to be man of the series and leading wicket taker

its going to be wicked.

reply to post by pearcester


yeah Swann is a great bowler, and yes this is going to be one hell of a series! And England just won the toss and are batting first!!!!

I don't know what a wicket is, but I'm guessing this is a cricket match?

I NEVER want Austrailia to win in anything, EVER.

I don't hate the ones from downunder, It's just that English accents are more varied and fun to listen to.

That's good news for England. Hopefully they make the most of batting first.

Any idea if this can be watched live streaming? ITV maybe?

England 2 for 49....

Good start there England

Looks like a return to form for us

Poor first day with Siddle getting a bloody ha trick

iv just woke up and looked at the score from last night cause i fell asleep around the 10over mark lol

260 all out whats happened there
iv looked at the score card and it looks like they just chucked their wickets away with the exception of cook and bell.....

Not a good start england!

Oh dear.......

Oh well let's just hope our bowlers can deliver in day 2

Not now

5/240 odd. Hussey is unstoppable

Play stopped for rain. We are back in control

reply to post by OzWeatherman


Nah it think it's still pretty even because we have the new ball when we want it now and the ball was moving around a bit yesterday, so it should swing a bit aswell. But today is definitely a crucial day for both teams!
