Nice to see the irishman leading us home, that will really get under Pontings skin

These convincing wins over the Aussies are getting really boring now.

Or maybe not

Great knock from Morgan!

I thought Morgan was disappointing in the tests, didnt seem to know whether to stick or twist. He really is much more fluent in the one dayers.

A lot of the holding back in the tests was because the toffs didnt like to see extravagant shots played during them i think this was in the back of his mind.

With the exceptions of Ponting, Clarke and Hussey is this the most average Aussie squad you've seen for a long, long time or what?? I know they are missing a fair few bowlers but go through the squad and at best you'd say they were decent players. First time in ages that no-one in the whole squad really scares you.

Roll on the Bangladesh series, it'd be good to see this England team against opposition that might provide us with some competition!

Bloody hell, right now we are a consistent and competent one day side

Beating the Aussies all the time is becoming boring (YEAH RIGHT)

How weird is it being confident that an english ODI side can win the game especially against the convicts

Very, but a) England are a pretty good one day side right now and b) the Aussies are pretty weak, as someone has said, no names that scare you at present. May be very different come the winter down under.

I just hope we are not peaking too soon. The main time to be playing well, and despite the poor opposition we are playing particularly well, is next year in the World Cup. It would be great to have the one day double.

England need 23 from 39 balls with 4 wickets left, doing their best to throw it away at the moment, must have been watching the footballers!.

Yikes, big stutter now 198/7 15 needed off 30.

Handled the pressure well. Least one England side is doing well, even if the Aussies are a bit of a shadow of the team we expect.

The batting line up just goes on forever in this current england side. Broad in @ 10 is a superb weapon to have

England have finally assembled a very good one day side and a key part of this is the depth of the batting...
I know its going back a few years but it reminds me of the side that reached the World Cup final in 1992..That one day side's batting went right down to the 9th or 10th man...

We've managed to break the opening partnership quite early this time around, lets see if we can do Ponting early as well

Damn, just like the old days

The major difference between the two national sporting psyches was on show yesterday IMO.

England, with the series in the bag, played poorly and lacked concentration.

Australia on the other hand played probably their best cricket of the series. Had England been in their shoes I doubt we would have seen a similar performance somehow.

England sliding to defeat in the 5th ODI v Aus

Eng 194/8 chasing 278.

ODI cricket is dead.

Someone ought to tell the tens of thousands of people around the world who pay to go watch it.
