Australia lost again. This time against England. Pietersen was the hero.

Kevin Pietersen starred with the bat and Steve Harmison with the ball as England consigned Australia to their fourth successive defeat in a thrilling match at Bristol. The destructive Pietersen struck yet another matchwinning innings with 91 from 65 balls and Harmison took 5 for 33 - his first five-wicket haul in one-dayers - as England won by three wickets to complete a miserable week for Australia.

If they lose big it will be humiliating, if it is close I don't think they would/should feel humiliated.

are you joking? if they lose the ashes they probably wouldn't be allowed back into australia. gilchrist alread said that he doesn't want to be in the team that loses the ashes to england.

their bowlers are getting too old and they have no one (apart from the Tate guy) in the wings to take over. it's a problem that could have been seen years ago. also don't count out the aussies yet, remember they haven't played cricket for quite a while and no doubt they are rusty.

This is the problem England went through. Not bringing in the young guys and sticking with the older ones. People say they young guys might don't have enough experience at the top level, but how do you get the experience if your don't get played?

i think that us english are getting a little too over excited a little too early.

The aussies are a great cricketing side and no matter how good england have got we cannot claim to be even close to the aussies at their best...YET.

Lets wait and see what happens in the tests, i for one am looking forwards to the ashes series and think it will be a close series......

I wouldn't like to predict a winner but if i had to lay money anywhere it would still be on the australians.

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
