Davie Warner, clearly trying to induce injuries in the English from uncontrollable laughter in another cunning Australian plan, is laying down a strong claim to regain the dunce cap from his ambitious brother.

I wud have liked Australia to bat and made 700 plus...even if the match is a draw just to prove a point.

It seems the life has been knocked out of the Aussies on here after England unleashed their secret weapon (precipitation) to save the last test. A good day for the tourists today - Lyon somehow bowls better on a day 1 pitch than a day 5 pitch. Swann might be just checking on Laker's record after seeing Garry's figures today.

I am expecting good batting from Clarke again and perhaps from Warner as well .

For any non intellectual sports fans who aren't quite following the game it's really very simple:

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.

You forgot to mention the UDRS,umpire decision review system,a jolly techno innovation that supposedly helps the umps get the correct response of,"finger up" for a he is out or "shake of the napper" for a not out! but when the turd ump has obviously been on the grass to long he doesn't give a toss if the review decision is spot on or not. .Entiende?
