Here we go again ... toss lost ... again ... 23:40 - Jan 4 with 1152 viewsRyorry

Masochist England cricket fans of TWTD unite ...

Tho TMS arguing that it's a "good toss to lose". Aus have elected to bat.

I'm not sure it matters really.

The way it's gone thus far they could let us have 3 innings and still win within the 5 days.

The pitch certainly looks like it should interest Broad and Anderson for the first few hours.

They'll need to take their catches.

Yep. Here we go again. I actually promised myself an early night but curiosity about how this first session goes got the better of me.

In other cricket news, Bangladesh are on the verge of beating NZ.

I'm in to the bitter end. Like Ipswich, however sh*t we are I'll keep going.

First 11 overs.. barely beaten the edge even a couple of times.

Harris and Warner will put on 150 at this rate without breaking sweat.

The issues all series have been with the bat and the bowlers have generally done alright but based on this first few hour, i predict the Aussies declare first innings for 430 knowing there’s rain about.

Does sound a bit innocuous out there. You can bet that we'd have been two down at least by now.

I have to confess that when I turned it on and they were 114-3, I was looking for our total!

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

feel thats unfair they were making it very difficult to score, you cant bowl wicket taking deliveries every ball, and there were several close calls, near chances, balls the Aussies left that you know full well had it been England batting would have knocked out middle stump, and full on batting collapse.

the problem was it was building pressure not scoring bowling, and then they went off for a rain break, which eases the not scoring tension and you have to start again, and then go through it all again, and then go off again, it was only really later on the bowlers sustained pressure paid off.

its a batting wicket always has been lately at Sydney so dont expect too much from the bowling unit, though Im sure England will make it look like a minefield.

I'd like to see the away team given the chance to make the decision on whether to bat or bowl first, forget the toss of a coin.

Interesting, that many are suggesting that today was England's best day of the series, says it all really. If the Aussies post more than 275 we're going to be in trouble with our batting line up.
