England
179 (81.1 overs) & 136 (52.4 overs)



The second Test match was played in Adelaide, and the scores were as follows,


Australia
570 (158.0 overs) (dec) & 3/132 (39.0 overs) (dec)

Bring back the real Mitchell Johnson - this new one is too good 🙁
 
I think England are looking at return flights already...C'mon England get your finger out.
 
Scores at the end of day 1 Australia 6/326 (87 overs)



Play is about to start for day 2.
 
Are you betting on the Ashes Zorb, I've won plenty so far backing the home team, Auzzies go well on their own tracks.
It is a shame the Poms are not fighting harder, there is nothing better in cricket than a decent Ashes series.
Their South Africans are slowly losing form or retiring, I wonder what the Poms do next to improve their team.
 
Australia Declare at 6/369 giving England a target of 504 runs.


At this very moment England are 4/130.

I haven't got a bet on this series, I'm just getting into this series, I thought that England were going to give us a run but the team that won the Ashes earlier in the year are is not this team.
 
England are all out for 353, Australia wins the test by 150 runs and in doing so win the Ashes series.


England All Out 353 (103.2) & 251 (88.0)
Australia 6/ 369 (87.0) (dec) & 385 (103.3)




Next test is on Boxing day in Melbourne.

and Bresnan is gone 🙁


if you count the series in England, then out of this 10 match series it is currently level at 3-3, with 2 games to go 😉
 
And out goes Pietersen also to another brilliant ball from Mitchel Johnston 😀 😀 😀
 
Yeah, props to Australia. They played well in England earlier this year without much luck and have dominated this series, damn them!

Having said that, England have been poor. 2nd highest score this inning is 38? Really???

And a typical Pietersen shot 🙁

Australia 164-9 at the close - thats better 🙂

Only 2 players scoring more than 20 😱

Now im watching South Africa v India
India 227-4 afternoon of day 2 - Steyn has the new ball 😱 :vroam:
 
The way the Aussies played was due to being hungover imo after winning the Ashes, and England played better than they have been.

This test may be a close one.

Well done England.
