Hurray victory! Last two days have been absolute crackers, which I'm very much happy for. Not too happy about this business about sledging on the pitch but eh, at the end of the day it's about the cricket.

Adelaide can't come fast enough.

I reckon the next test will be the one that will shape the rest of the series.
I missed large sections of the last two days flicking between the V8 Supercars and the cricket but I was lucky that I managed to see most of the wickets.
As for the sledging it always happens and will always happen. However tell a number 11 batsmen that your gonna break his arm seems a bit far.

Bumping cause its the morning that Australia will win the Ashes for the first time since 2007!
Woo
Looking for a Nathan Lyon 5 wicket haul.

Yep, should be. Ful credit to Stokes and all that, but one guy can't turn around this kind of momentum. An Aussie urn inside of three tests - I don' think anyone was predicting that a few weeks ago.

This thread reminds me: the YouTube LPer cr1tikal did a video on a cricket game, and I figure you people who actually understand the sport would find it hilarious.  I was about as lost watching it as he was playing it myself.

It was really funny yesterday.

Four, Six, Two, Four, Six, Six, declaration, first ball from Harris to Cook, diamond duck.

Very amusing listening to him rant and rave about all the No Balls and sh*t. tehehe.

Makes me want to dust off whatever old Cricket Game I've got and play it... (nearly)

[Black Wolf]

And there it is! The urn is back where it belongs.

Top marks to Stoke for being the only Englishmen to get a hundred. Gonna be interesting final two tests as I reckon that hundred gave them a bit of momentum towards the end (too little too late).
But urn is ours and lets go for a 5-0 whitewash.

That is very funny, I loved how he was using baseball terms for cricket. Does anybody have the game he was playing, it looked pretty crap. Then again cricket games haven't been that great since cricket 2004 IMO and the best of them all was Shane Warne Cricket 99 (Or Brian Lara Cricket 99 if you lived outside of Australia). It kinda went downhill after that.
