I doubt there are many cricket fans on here, but either way; Australia just had one of the greatest come-backs I've ever seen and is pretty exciting if you know how the game works, check out these highlights:

there are a few cricket fans around, a couple English fans, and from my name you can tell where I am from. I was at day 2 of the SCG test this year and how England got rolled 5-0 by a team with as many hole/flaws as the current Aussie team baffles me. If they ever get ahead it's as though they start to think "how will we screw this up now?"

With the hype of T20's on an international level it's always great to see a a good ODI and a Test Match.

Just checked the highlights as well, what a comeback. Faulkner with some great shots at the end, raw power on those hits. I've always enjoyed the England - Australia rivalry and the whole Ashes series.

I am a big cricket fan, thanks for the highlight link!

Edit: after watching it, that was an incredible run chase. Almost 300 runs to make, and with wickets dropping like that, it's pretty impressive.
