Go Down Aussie!!

I was very happy today.. I came to office early (according to my standards) by 10am to hear the BBC 5 live commentary for the Ashes. England had put up only a modest target of 282 for Aussies to chase. After seeing the scorecard, I felt that the Aussies would easily chase this target and take thier lead to 2-0. The reason being England dint had a quality spinner of Warne's calibre to win the match. But Flintoff with both bat and ball turned the game to Englands favour. Aussies are now reeling with just two wickets left and 100 odd runs to score for victory , which looks impossible. It was truly an amazing day of cricket with 17 wickets taken and 300 odd runs scored. Its a day to remember for Flintoff and all those English fans and for the anti-Aussie fans like me.
Hope England levels the series tommarow :)
