I think we are going to get hammered - their bowling attack will be to strong for us. Our only chance is if Anderson and Broad (if he decides to turn up - don't rate him really ) can knock them over quickly. I will be at the last test at the Oval - be a good day out whatever the state of affairs.
Think the older players suck as Clarke (out poorly again), Haddin, Rodgers and Shane Watson will be gone after this series. Think Root is better than Smith. He has looked disappointing lately and has given his wicket away far too cheaply.
A 350 lead may put us in with a shout of winning perhaps
Would be good to see Moeen and Stokes get a few
Yes we are underdogs and rightly so. When mentioning football, rugby WC etc these are all one off games rather than a series of 5. I just cannot see us winning this but we may sneak 1 test, we lose silly wickets when we shoudl be digging in and our bowling attack is irratic at best.
I just hope we do not get humiliated to be honest particualrly on home soil. If i was a betting man i would have 4-1 or 3-1 aussies (if weather is poor).
If ODI i would be more confident as i think we are getting that right. Who knows in the future as i think we have great talent there, impressed with Strauss not messing around (apart from KP) and we are moving in the right direction.
What the fuck do i know eh???
To be fair, I don't think anyone expected results to go the way they have.
I did!!!
Nope. Not at all. Thought we would lose the series. This has all been rather refreshing it has to be said.

Me to I tipped 3v1 on number 6 on here wish i had backed it now!

The Aussies are holding on, still no wickets, 100 partnership
Good. Otherwise the whole game is a joke. I hope they make 450 and at least make the game look credible.
Well I have had £10 at 20-1 for England to win ... Come on bell double century please

Playing like kids also!Tickles me, the Aussie fans all kitted out In the same garb topped off with caps.
Look like a bunch of Schoolkids decked out by mum and packed off on a school trip.

Never ever in any doubt before a ball had even been bowled on the first morning of the first test.
England were dead certs for this before the very off weren't they?
I'm not an expert on Cricket but it just seems the Aussies don't know how to play the moving ball, on the pitch that offered nothing they plundered 100s of runs and on the other pitches they just looked liked novices.It's a huge surprise, Ryan Harris late retirement has made a big difference, I honestly can't believe how poor the Aussies have batted, I think the pundits are right, a lot of the Aussies play a lot more T20 and limited over cricket than our guys on central contracts, they think that every ball needs to go for a 4. Generally they have bowled pretty well and got us out for decent totals, but your bowlers need your batsmen to give them something to bowl at.
An amazing performance from England showing no mercy.
