Hmmm….that was an interesting way of spending a Saturday morning. It was all looking so good as well. A collapse of Iver Heath standards and no mistake!

Let’s see if the boys can do something with the ball.

5PM UPDATE

Well that was pretty comprehensive! To be honest, Australia were miles ahead of England today and thoroughly deserved the victory. England got off to a good start with Strauss and Bell but after that they lost their way. After a quick burst of wickets, Damien Martyn was superb for Australia and he was unfortunate not to see it all the way through to the end.

What does it mean with regards the Ashes? Absolutely nothing, in my opinion. It would have been nice to pick up a win but, let’s be honest, England ODI form is woeful and has nothing to do with the way the Test team plays.

November 23. That’s when it matters.
