Rep Power: 10   | England were totally demolished in the 4th test. Their batting looks so fragile with the absence of KP & Fredie. Fredie is expected to be fit for the nest test which starts on 20th this month. Mark Ramprakash has got as call. This guys used to be Dravid of England. He has scored more than 100 First Class Hundred.  |

|  5th Test Update England won the toss and elected to Bat first. Not so fine performance by team, managed to score only 332 in first inning. Major Contributor were Ian bell (72), Skipper Strauss (55) and Trot (41). Good bowling by Siddle, took 4 wickets. But, If you're feeling low looking at England's total, here is some good news for you. Australia's Current score is 125/7 with Mitchell Johnson (10) and Siddle (4) on crease. Katich (50) being the top scorrer till now for Aussies. Stuart broad bowled exceptionally well today. Took wicket out of total 7 wicket lost by Australia till now. GO STUART GO!! |

Rep Power: 10 | The session between lunch & tea was amazing. 8 wickets fell for some 70 runs. Australia from the position of strength now requires some one to play the game of his life if Aussies needs to win this match. |

| Platinum Member  | England have regained the Ashes after a huge win at the Oval. Many congratulations to them. Australia have slipped to the 4th rank in the standings (1. SA, 2. SL 3. IND). England are now 5th. |

Rep Power: 10 | When Ponting & Hussey were fighting back, I thought that the game would go to the 5th day. But the run out Ponting was the the turning point. Even after the third man decision came, Ponting was standing still at the pitch. He couldn't believe it.Its was not the end of him but the end of an era where the Aussies dominated the world cricket. Kudos to England. Yesterday the celebrations where as if they had won the world cup. I believe The Ashes means more to England than a World Cup. |

| Platinum Member | The Ashes do mean more to Aus-Eng than anything else. - Eng and Aus are traditional enemies on every sports that they compete together - No cricketer worth his salt would place a 50 or 20 over game above a 5-day game and hence a Test series victory means more than a 1-day series victory - Ashes is the oldest bilateral championship - It is rich with history - No other cricket contest has such keen polarization with the exception of probably IND-PAK series which is second best.
