Trent Bridge Day 3

[chickenfeet]

A wild and wacky morning followed by a much more conventional afternoon and evening as Australia tried to dig themselves out of a really deep hole. England really must win now. Nothing else is remotely acceptable. Objectively the game situation is overwhelmingly in England's favour and, perhaps more importantly, the convicts are rattled as Ponting's outburst this afternoon shows.

England need to go for the killer punch. This Australian team has little experience of losing so it's a perfect opportunity to kick them when they are down. They have made a specialty of doing that to others for a decade. It's payback time!
