I actually feel sorry for Clarke, the Aussie Skipper is one of my favourite players !
England are very rarely in this sort of winning position and this has been an amazing ashes series !

I am disappointed, there has hardly been a session in the series with good bowling and good batting. I was hoping for an Aussie win to take it to the last match.

Do agree, 5day matches don't seem to happen much now do they, possibly the influence of 20/20 cricket.
While this ashes has been exciting you are correct the standard of both batting and bowling has been generally poor except for the odd session now and then.

I love cricket but from what I have seen on this tour it is shooting itself in the foot. The wickets are prepared purely for the home side. Players do not have experience (apart from 20/20 or 50 overs) of playing in different conditions so it is generally a whitewash for the home side. On a different level the amount of coverage hype criticism has lead to 2 English players sent home with stress life and careers changed, from what I have seen of the Aussie team they are on the verge of the same, some great players have been completely humiliated, I dont like to see that.
 
Shelter baby Elijah was adopted by one of the little campers. I'm going to miss this little guy but I'm glad he has a good home with her.

That's really awesome!

I have added another item onto my bucket list, "Understand the Game of Cricket". I see the one with Kate Beckinsale occurring first however.

I totally gave up on that a long time ago.

However, the Cricket bat looks like it could be extremely handy in dealing with asshats on an "up close and personal" basis...

Heathens ! :lol:
