i guess they're just thinking if they get a 400 lead within the hour, it'll break the aussies will a little more. not sure if i agree with it, but i can see their thinking.

maybe, just seems a stupid option with rain on the way.

and don't fall into that trap. in this series, australia have scored 450 and 100/1, with one batting failure. that's not much worse than how we've done tbf.

declaration
we absolutely must get this one right and do the utmost to get a victory - if it's 0-0 after this test, then all the brilliance, psychology, records, etc etc will essentially count for fuckall.
ok, strauss has called 'em in. let's fuckin' have it!! jimmy and swanny please step forward...

Stupidity. The only thing Australia need to use up is time, and we're doing some of it for them.

maybe his plan was to fuck the aussies's mindset up abit, hmmm.
i think i'll go with the judgement of our ashes winning captain
What's your opinion? Just that he is right, no matter what?

Ok, 370 ahead. Forget about stopping runs. Attack, attack, attack.

i thought we should have declared earlier personally, but i doubt strauss's decision to bat on was made through stupidity. i'll go with his decision, because let's face it, he's won the ashes and i haven't.

There is no love between us anymore.
Loads of hard work for the English up today. They can do it but its going to be loads of running. But on the other hand the batters made very good use of the couple of extra overs to humiliate the Australian team.

i reckon we can get them out for 310 or so. I'm being generous to the aussies so i don't jinx anything btw.
Yeah, I'm not sure stupidity was accurate. I just mildly disagree. I'm sure originally they would've declared about half an hour before stumps yesterday if the rain had held off.
need to set super-aggressive fields, fuck stopping boundaries, let's take wickets

definitely. if we run out of time with one wicket left to get, then don't worry, i'll be back raging at strauss for not declaring sooner
we should still have time anyway. allowing for rain i still think we'll have well over a day to bowl them out.
wooooahh, jimmy jimmy....

They're on about Katich being injured, who would replace him?

I know that. But if it gets too much and he can't bat, i mean.

But the point is that the wicket looks alright. You should expect a day and a half (and that being the case, we'll probably be chasing a few, but we would know how many/ how much time)
