Ashes Pointscore - First Test Results: The scores are in - it's early days yet, with four more to go, but the jostling for position has started.

Etagloh scores big with the only England player to do well - Paul Collingwood. With Australia only batting once in Cardiff, the scores will no doubt adjust themselves as the series goes on.

After the First Test:

etagloh - 537
BoKnows - 472
owlhouse - 471
tommytrump - 449
cabuki - 439
rumple - 424
Mr Bismarck - 392
Dr John Evans - 330
Fat Buddha - 244
Jeffwa - 133

NB: I think we can still allow Jeffwa and Fat Buddha to nominate a substitute for their players out injured/not selected.

BoKnows cricket?

If it's alright with everyone, can I sub Katich for Watson?

Edit:

Dammit. I just noticed Sidebottom was removed from the side.

How did I not end up on the bottom of the table?

Flintoff is limping already and has announced he's going to retire after these Tests.

So that'll be another career I've killed.

Crap. I forgot to check in before the matches started. I'll stay with who I picked since it was my fault for not following up in a timely manner.

Cabuki - I'll sub Katich in for the rest of the series.

Jeffwa - you can make a sub, too, if you like.

Sorry, cabuki, I got my Excel calcs wrong - you should be on 339, not 439 from the First Test with Ponting, Hussey, Broad and Flintoff. Katich will count from the next.

You're still not last, though.

owlhouse: That's okay. Thanks, though.
