			If the captain of Australia makes arm breaking threats on the field, the question should not be whether he's fined but whether he's captain of Australia anymore. Disgusting behaviour.

Well now they must stand up and be counted in these next two days because if they don't then the ashes are lost l am afraid.

			Australia bat again after Mitchell Johnson takes 7-40 to bowl England out for 172.http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/25148365 
And with this overnight performance you can kiss the ashes goodbye.

			Yes, have to agree with you there.  England seem to have no answer these days, we were lucky in the summer to keep the Ashes with a woeful Australian side.  They seem to have worked hard since that loss and are determined to win again.
 Someone in work yesterday was saying it is time for Cook to go as captain, but as I pointed out to them we have no-one good enough to replace him as captain.  I certainly cannot see them giving it to KP.

 |  This English team has been a absolute shambles as it has been poorly led and is carrying too many players either out of form or relying on past glories.
