Come on Australia!

England’s fate in the World rankings is largely out of its hands for the next couple of months. India can catch up with England is they whitewash West Indies AND Australia away (never going to happen!) but S Africa can overtake England is they beat Australia and Sri Lanka.

So, good luck to Australia, I never really hated you!

well kash and amla, we'll have to agree to disagree for now.

we will see in january who was/is right.

anyway, SA's collapse today from a promising position gives australia a chance to press home their advantage of having limited SA to a modest total. I think that australia are better than people think, if only they could find a spinner cough*nathan hauritz*cough.

England will score masses of runs..

Think im right in saying that england scored over 400 only once in england last year and if you look at each innings, except lords, you'll see that england were skittled for low scores (below 300!). Think you guys are underestimating pakistan slightly, esp in conditions we are used too,.......

Last year as in 2010?? The problems i see for Pakistan is like India's problems.If they dont take early wickets. England will bat sessions after sessions and amass alot of runs..I dont under estimate anyone. But i also see England bowling very good lines and lenghts..Pakistan will go at a slower scoring rate than England. It will take them longer to get into a winning position..
Am not being arrogant for the first time for aslong as i can remember. England have alot of talented players..

You will be thrashed in Pakistan.Once this team plays clean, they are world beaters.
--------------------
I thought your 2 best players were in the nick. With a team that can be bought for chump change, if the bookies want a Pakistan loss, it will happen.

After watching Australia kick Pakistan 6-1 in the hockey yesterday it appears cricket is not the only sport the bookies are into.....what a disgrace...

In all honesty....England became No.1 at a time when Sth.Africa hardly played a test....give it 12 months when it all evens itself out and the true No.1 will be in place, whether it be England or Sth. Africa..
