Fair play to Wagner. Man got utterly destroyed in the 1st test but got it done when it mattered here.

Lol
Just found out that Windies win was actually the only other 1 run win….ever.
Well glad I’ve seen them both.
Was that the Ambrose 7-1 game? Is amazing how close it was. Well played New ZealandQuote:

England v Australia at Edgbaston 2005 was a 2-run win.
A truly nerve-wrecking day. Also ended in a similar fashion to this game. Strangled down legQuote:

My mate said last night that we shouldn't have declared then despite me saying that we got 2 wickets in that half hour before lunch. He said we should still win today but imagine us doing that in the Ashes.
So the Ambrose 7 for 1 was in the next test to win it…helluva series that one.
Aussies won the 1st, next 2 were draws and then Windies pull off a come from behind win in the 4th and 5th tests.
And I think that’s the last time they ever won in Australia. Might be wrong but I’m pretty sure if that.
I think you are right - coming to the end of the glory days while McGrath and Warne were just starting out. Warne only bowled 8 overs in that match!Quote:

Ridiculous isn't it. Still a pretty decent side outQuote:

It’s so sloooooow.
I've got it on at work - so a nice distraction. Not a great game thoughQuote:

Lord they didn’t help themselves by going for 109 in the first innings but this one might not be over yet.
Really need to get my sleep patterns back to normal.
Thank god the Ashes is back in England this time. I couldn’t take them wonky times in Australia…like that place with the half hour time zone.
Like they special or something.
I know India has it as well but they’re closer so the times are easier…
India's makes sense. Basically the country, while tall, is still so wide it really out to be 2 times zones, GMT+5/6. But by doing it this way, GMT+5.30, they keep the whole nation united on the same clock.Quote:

Wotcha gonna do when they become a test playing powerhouse?
Well we have a game here…Aussies bowled out for 197 and India just 13 behind with 7 wickets left.
Just need to grind out 150+ and they’ll have them on the ropes imo
Blimey - look away for ten minutes and they collapse. It's like they can't play spinQuote:

Bowled them out for 116 and needed just 247 for the win but collapsed.
