BUT the England team has been making steady progress in rebuilding their abilities in recent years (with an Australian coach) and looks like this series will be close. Also England has the home country advantage. So you don't want to miss a bowl or an over, and you better phone your boss and let him know you won't be coming in today or tomorrow.

5 days long and it still ends in a draw

Cricket is cool, my indian collegues introduced me to it and I even own a bat. Unfortunately Germany sucks big time.

Go on England

Australia are 97-5 at lunch. For those not in the know. That is not a good score so far

Oh gee thanks Speedy....I had almost forgotten that horror of my carrier losses, and you've just brought the memories flooding back. Thanks mate.
But just remember this, your team is yet to bat.
