Harmison is bowling with such aggression that he hit Langer in the elbow with his second ball, and cut Ponting on the cheekbone with blood flowing, about 5 minutes ago. He's bowling like an Australian! Stay tuned. Its all good stuff, with Hoggard having got an early wicket. Anil

Regular Member Group: Members Posts: 889 Joined: 29-October 03 From: Sydney Australia Member No.: 64	I agree Vivek. Kevin Pietersen who thilled us in the one dayers is playing the most important innings of his short test career. I'll stick my neck out and say that England have won the Ashes. Coming right on the back of 5 successive test defeats of the Wallabies at the hands of the All Blacks and the Springboks in rugby union, this will be a bad blow for the Australians who delight in their sporting prowess! Anil
