Default T20 and one dayers: The nightmare continues...

For the Aussies.

England now eight on the trot and the Aussies five on the trot: wins and losses, respectively. Can't remember enjoying cricket more. Even the dire 50 over game is going to be watchable if England can keep handing out the pastings.

I do like T20, though. If you're going to play a game in a day, this is the one to play. Wednesday's match was a cracker, hoping for more of the same tonight. Big score for Morgan hopefully.

Well done colonials, you managed to beat your masters, good show!

In years to come this will be remembered as the cricketing moment of 2011.

Glad I was here to witness it.

Ah, these Aussies still have some fight in them, or perhaps last week's celebrations are catching up on the English? Poor batting by England I think was the key in this one. They still got close though. I'm surprised Warner wasn't instructed to drop the catch he got off Collingwood. England were never going to keep up with the rate with him in. Top bloke and captain and all, but he's batting worse than the number 11.

It's great to see two teams playing that are keen to win. Makes a huge difference from last year where the Windies had no chance (mainly because they have no team) and the Pakistanis were playing for the bookies.

Indeed, not the best batting performance and I was pleased to see Collingwood go too. Nice to see some fresh names getting a go too, good signs for the future.

The celebrations must be taking it out of them.

The Australians will be more at home in One Day cricket though, for months they have been saying 'One day we'll win something'.
