Approaching the end of day two in the final test match and England have a real good chance of beating the Aussies in the deciding 'winner takes all' game.
Unfortunately, having been mainly disappointed by English cricket for the last 30 years, I'm not yet in a position to start celebrating! So many times England have managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; and with so much time still to play (3 days) against the 'don't know when they're beaten' Australians, we won't really know where we stand for a day or two yet.

For Americans reading this, it won't mean much...but imagine if Baseball was truly an international game, where nations regularly played against each other (Think the World Baseball Classic, but taken seriously...) in series' with over 100 years of history. Think Yankees v Red Sox on an international scale, with national passions not local rivalries stirring the pot.
So let's keep our fingers crossed and hope that these scenes can be repeated next week... at the moment I'm about 50/50!
