It's The Ashes (again)

[Malcolm Tucker]

Australia’s afternoon and evening session.

Close now, maybe Australia marginally ahead.  If the weather holds (typical - I’ll be there) we’ll know by lunch tomorrow who has the upper hand.

The Aus are certainly favourites now. 6/5 to Englands 2/1

Really bold declaration. Not paying off atm

That declaration was nothing short of idiotic. If they’d done it at 9 down with 10 overs to bowl at them, then fair enough. To sacrifice two wickets, with your best batsman still at the crease, for 4 overs at them is utter insanity.
