Ashes Blog, Day 5, Pre Morning Session

Morning Campers (ok we're well aware its 8.25pm but our bodies are running on Oz time!)

Today promises to be either a boring day or one of the best days of test cricket in recent memory.  All 3 results are pheasible, with the draw being the most obvious.  If England can pile on another 200runs by lunch we may just see a decleration from Mr Strauss and that could set-up a nervey finish for the Aussies.  If Australia take a few quick wickets we could see the England of old returning and Australia chasing little more than 150 in 2 sessions.  If England decide to bat out the day it will be rather boring and obviously the game will end in a tie.

Personally I would like to see England take the game to Australia, try and score quickly and go for the win.  If we lose 2 wickets we should be able to rely on Colly, Bell and Prior to see us through to a safe position.

MOD says 'Keep Australia out in the field all day, realistically we dont have much of a chance of winning, and doing this would enable us to knacker them out before the 2nd Test on Thursday'

Let me know what you guys think.
