England & Wales v Aussies

[ArneSlot4PM]

3-0 with 2 to play.

I can't recall ever seeing an Aussie cricket team playing so poorly.

Is Ricky Ponting finally coming to the end of his career?

 

[Judge Jules]

Could be. It's been looming for a while. If he had less determination and professionalism he could well have gone by now.

 

[ArneSlot4PM]

You're probably right mate.

I've been impressed with Flower since he's taken over, he really seems to be taking the team in the direction in all forms of the game. If England could find a proper quick, they'd have one hell of a team.

It has been commented on a lot in this series that the Aussies have lost that aura, that supra-confident and intimidatory air they once exuded, and that left the English half beaten before an over had been bowled. Punter's aggression seems to be turning inwards now- he's angry at himself and his team because he knows they just aren't good enough. That 20-20 victory was a case in point. England put their boot onto the Australian team's throat knowing they could bully the Aussies, and they've done the same again in this series.

 

[Judge Jules]

Agreed, and in a bleak summer it's been good to see.

Rafa4 mate, agreed about Flower. The mix of personalities seems to be somewhere near right in the England camp now.

Kieswetter is trying too hard to be KP at times.

I like the look of the one day squad though, just hope we can transfer this form down under this winter.

The Ponting of old would of scored a 100 yesterday.
