England drew the 1st test match with Australia at Cardiff…
James Anderson and Monty Panesar the final pair were the stars of the test match who managed to paly off Australia for the final 11.3 overs helping England pull off a great escape at Cardiff. Earlier in the day Paul Collingwood managed to frustrate the Australian bowling attack by playing a monumental 245-ball 74 with England trailing at 6. Collingwood’s 50 came off 167 balls, the slowest by an England batsman since Nasser Hussain against West Indies in Port of Spain, but the pace of his innings did not matter at all as England did save this match.
Ponting admitted that the result was tough to digest as Australia were ahead of the game virtually throughout the final day. Now he is looking forward to the 2nd Test Match which is to be played at Lords
