You were right Zeal. Credit to Ponting, that was a great innings but the Aussies have got out of jail big time. Didn't like the way they were celebrating at the end, proves how much the Aussies have fallen down the scale.

I'm absolutely gutted.

 

Just think that was our chance. Can only see the Aussies winning this series now. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Actually, I can honestly say this is the most upset I've been following a sports match probably since Forest Green.

 

Certainly more so than when those Prima Donnas ponced out in Portugal last year.

Even I was bothered!

I'm just stunned. We dominated that match and them Aussie bastards have got away with it!! I'm not a massive cricket fan but even this has realled pissed me off.

I think it was a moral victory to us - if time had not been lost to rain we would have whopped them

I would agree, but they only need to win one of the remaining two tests to retain the Ashes.

 

A chance blown, and another 30 month wait.

Could well be the decisive session of the Ashes that one I'm afraid. As said above the Aussies just need 1 of 2 to retain the Ashes or to draw both- probably now more likely than us winning both or winning one or drawing one.
