Its looking pretty unlikely now for Australia. If we are brutally honest, there is no way they can come back in the time they have left- England have won the ashes!

Now the crowd are singing to the Aussies "Are you Scotland in disguise?". It doesn't get any better.

Both teams played fantastic cricket and it could have gone either way.
Shane Warne was a real sportsman congratulating Pieterson on his batting in the final test.
Still, while we did well winning I wonder whether we could dominate the sport for 18 years like Australia did? We seem to snatch odd victories in lots of sports from time to time ... we find it harder to make winning a "habit" like some teams do!
