GILES should be out....Pannesar in
ANDERSON should be out....Saniff in
JONES is lucky to retain his place
You cannot "blame" Umpires for a bad decision.It's in the record books now.Bad decisions can go both ways remember.
What England did NOT factor into the game was obviously "The Warne Factor"

where is the famed english bottle gone? not beer bottle mate, the sipirit bottle. Well I am punning again.
This is more than shameful. yeah you are right, it will be 5-0 , yeah, if they dont wipe up their noses. What is giles doing in the team? He is the worst spinner we ever had. Monty must be in, and yes for god's sake send anderson back home for a little nap. I have never seen such a shoddy show. Morover make strauss captain again, flintoff is no good, strauss has more pluck more bottle, and he unites the team. Flintoff seems to favor harmison, but this is how it goes

GET BEHIND 'EM AND STOP BAGGING!!!!! Had Flintoff as captain pulled off a major miracle with a Pommie win, NOT ONE BRIT would call for change, The entire team would be hailed as heroes! .... Couldn't stand half the Pom team after losing the ashes last series............They have been profiled heavily over in Aus, and they are a great bunch of lads doing it tough for the home front. Give the boys an even break?
When you get labelled as whinging....look no further than how you treat your own!

the umpiring was actually very good
strauss (2nd inns) wasnt out
that was the only bad decision
giles has dropped the ashes
anderson is also a hopeless bowler
i think harmison should be kept though
out: giles, anderson
in: panesar, mahmood
