This is what called agressive captaining- Even though Lee was doing great, Ponting is giving Gillespie a try to get another wicket.

I'm glad Aussies are back with vengence against the English, who, for all practical purposes, were getting their head too big..
This is needed not only for Australia, but also to calm down the Brits.
I still think Aussies still played too much respect to the bowlers...I guess there were playing it safe.
Either way, it doesn't bode too well for us.
Having said that, even we don't win any other game in the series...we are still the 'winner'. We've won over the naysayers and most importantly - a lot of our self created demons....

Aus should be careful if flintoff gets 15-20 more runs he's gonna start smashing sixes!

Is Watson still shaking in fear of English Ghosts? Kasper should replace him in the next match (yeh, I know it is bad for us).

Yep, it is all downhil now for England. Let see how far can Pieterson carry the team in this kind of situation.

Wow. It seems a team does well after being scared by ghosts..... It happened to BD and now to Aussies.
England RR: 3.52
Required RR: 8.77
Australia 266/5 (50 ov)
England 115/5 (32.4 ov)
England is really screwed..... Only Pieterson left. Only a miracle can save England.... and i doubt the miracle is due today.

I still wish England could somehow pull this off. English win will keep Bangladesh in 2nd position even after 3rd round. Although it looks a remote hope now.

The Aussies bowling has been very good.
Lee and McGrath were sensational first up, England did nothing wrong. And when you get 6-3 you are under pressure and some days will collapse, England have done that today.
As I speak, Giles gone.

Looks like Englands message didnt get through to Aussies heads. I think England was too complecant (cant spell it, but same thing happened to us after a win)... Add to that, the Aussie bowlers are on fire and BD is not second anymore.

Australia will win with a bonus point today.
All they need is to all out England by 212--which looks pretty easy now.
