I was most impressed to find that Austrralia looks set to win the Third Test which starts tonight, our time.

I have also heard that there is a good chance of Australia winning the series.

This information comes from a very reliable source.

We're playing for the win just so that our guys all get Knigh Hoods.

Your guys did a few years back then lost the Ashes the very next series.

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you have to be Knighted by a Monarch, and seeing that the land of Oz do not have a Monarch with the exception of dear ole Liz the Queen of ENGLAND... that is very unlikely...

Dream on.... :D :p

She is still the Queen of Australia.

You still havn't taken a wicket and we are at 47 runs.

Only in Name is she Queen of Oz, who was the last Ozzie to be knighted then?

The Head of State is the Govenor General who is the Queen's represenative.

So the Queen is still our Queen and not likely to change due to the birth of young George.

57 - 0 now.

I was surprised to see that the last Kighthood awarded was earlier this year. 2013.

My source was Wiki and I found it in one of the last sections.

I'm back. Had to have some sleep.

I see the score at 3 - 307 with one of those wickets clearly not out.

Catch you tonight my time.

Was at Old Trafford yesterday to witness a show Aussie batting prowess. A rare event to savour, I'm lucky to have seen it.

I'm predicting a draw for test 3.

Australia should look at a declaration.

Thwn bowl England out twice. Save our batsmen for the 4th.

Australia get a commanding lead so the poms make it rain.

We didn't think we would need one. He has gone shopping for a new bride.

Just for the weekend then you can have her back.

I think that you may have misunderstood, I meant that the rain was our 12th man.

Rain will delay play, and the test will be abandoned or drawn, then Good ole Blighty retain the ashes... not how I would like to win, but hey a win is a win...

Guess you should have played better in the first two tests... :p

It is difficult to take cricket seriously when the results are so effected by the weather, and also matches can be won or lost on the toss of a coin.
