We are in the middle of the third game of the well known cricket series between two great cricketing sides Australia and England, where Australian’s have already lost a game and are behind England in the series so far by 1-0.
England have been looking in their top form in the series so far but can they hold on the mighty Aussie’s from winning this third test as they are certainly in a comfortable position by restricting the England side for just 187 in their first innings, while Australia had already put up 268 in their first innings and took a handsome lead of 81 runs.
Though England looked to struggle in this third game of the series but they have been pretty consistent against the Australian team, once known as the dominators of all form of cricket. Thus, it seems England had done their homework before the start of the Ashes and it looks they had done their preparations keeping in mind the Cricket World Cup 2011 which is not far from here.
Coming back to the game, Australians are now commencing their second innings and finished the second day for a comfortable 119/3. Watson is still unbeaten with a score of 61 with Hussey on the crease with him on 24. Australia have a pretty good chance of grabbing this game to level the series which will make the series more exciting with only one game to go.
Aussie’s have many positives from this game as Johnson put up a good performance with both bat and ball, taking 6 wickets and making a half century both in the first innings. England on the other side had been much on track before this game but still they have three more days to go in the game so not much can be predicted. Till then let’s hope for an exciting cricket game and enjoy these two teams fighting for glory.
