It's The Ashes (again)

[Fido]

I can't call this. I really can't. I think we just about go into tomorrow as favourites. But it's tight. It can go either way.

All I know is that England will be kicking themselves massively if they don't win. We've had so many chances (dropped catches, wickets off no balls, missed-stumpings) to get on top. But it's made for a great game.

Some spell from Broad, that.

Paddy Power make us slight favourites at 10/11, with Australia 11/10 and 14/1 the draw.  Sounds about right to me.

I think the draw is worth a cheeky tenna. It's obviously long odds for a reason - there should be a winner, but met office forecast tells me the morning session will probably be rained off, with rain easing off between 12:00 and 13;00. I'm not sure what that means over wise, but assuming that leaves 60 overs remaining across 2 sessions Australia RRR would be 3. There could be a scenario where we take an early wicket or two, and they just end up blocking it out, and it could lead to a tense draw. 

So many permutations. It's exciting.

Well, three anyway.
