If England draw it, they've been very lucky really
and if the Aussies win, then they have been very modest about it, as they've accepted everything that's been dished out, as opposed to the hyped up teddy out of the pram scenarios the press and fans have suggested
Also, the test England won had 3 appaulling decisions which affected the result significantly. The positive reaction from the aussies to the above poor umpiring, is probably why they won the Headingly test match so convincingly
If they do so this too, then that whole "haha" factor of those umpiring decisions, has proven to just increase their determination to wni
