Days Review:

All set for another Encounter in Ashes both the teams are ready to fight back strongly.where as england is in top spot in this series where as Australia also came back with some good batting performance in last test match.Clarke and North regain there form and save the last test to keep the hopes on the series.where as england is facing some problem with fitness for Flintoff.He is facing some problem in Net session will he replace by hamison or will be in the squad have to wait and see.
