    There's a new Cricket game being released at the end of the year here for the PS3 and 360. It's called Ricky Ponting Cricket here, I think it's called Brian Lara cricket in most countries though.

    Also, go the aussies! We'll still somehow win the series.

    I have to say though, it is a re-building stage for Australia, we've lost some big names these last few years, Adam Gilchrist, Shane Warne, Matthew Hayden, Justin Langer and Glen McGrath. Just saying those names give me goosebumps.

    Once Players like Brett Lee are fully fit and in-form there is no chance for any International team, especially England.

    If it was my choice, I personally would have let Andrew Symonds play in the Ashes. He is such a great all-round player, he is the difference between a win and a loss.

    if the Ashes were being played in Australia we'd have another 5 out of 5 win of the series, and we'd also get to get a full test match happening. Does it ever stop raining in England? :p

    I know...Hopeless poms.

    I'm quite happy with our recent draw...it's not a loss.

    And i agree, all the big names left together!

    Even though he wasn't doing well, i think that we shouldent have dropped Phil Hughes

    Agreed. There is nothing worse than dropping an out of form young player. It'll be hard for him to return, and especially to be replaced by Shane Watson who isn't a specialist opener. Just throw it in Hughes' face why don't they.

    I know right!

    Phil Hughes at this point in his career has similar stats to Don Bradmen at this point in his career!

    Mitch Johnson isnt that good either! Get hughes back!

    I think Mario likes it more because it's more entertaining and fast. Im still more of a fan of the old fashioned test metches.
