Reasonable. If we bat for a couple of hours and get close to 400 then we will be doing ok.

Wasn't even aware there was a Scottish team, cricket is pretty much non-existent in Scotland. It does piss me off that England class Scotland as a county, they could do with a few geography lessons.

Just out of interest, when does all this Ashes rubbish end? And why do England always play Australia?

I know absolutely nowt about cricket, and I'm quite proud of that fact in many ways!

ends on monday. it started ages ago when england played asutralia (1800something) and we lost so they burnt one of the bails and wrote some letter or whatever saying that english cricket was dead RIP and the bails were the remains, they became the ashes and they are in an urn at lords. then since 1800whatever england have played australia in 5 5 day test matches every now and then (3 years i think but not too sure) they play each match over 5 days at a different ground around the country. the team who has won the most matches wins the ashes. australia normally win.

Edit- now 373 all out-not to bad, but could have been better.

Well exactly - I can't understand all these people saying "let's hope it rains" - surely we want to win through playing not through fluke.

yes we could have been, but how much has the rained saved us in the past in other tests ?????, so its a sort of payback for us from someone.
