From News.com.au ....

IF Australia's cricketers bundle England out for a paltry first innings in the Ashes decider, get set for a rush on flights to Britain.
But the rush has nothing to do with Australians eager to witness the fifth Ashes Test starting in London tonight Australian time.

British Airways will offer flights from Sydney and Melbourne to London for prices equivalent to England's first innings total in the final Test.

If the Poms are scuttled for 150, the cost of a flight from Sydney or Melbourne to London will be £150 ($361.66).

hows that for a great catch!! 8)

At 10.20pm Aust time, it's 3 for 120. Are BA getting nervous yet??

[Lindsay Wilson]

Better make that 4 for 131 - Go Warnie!

242 - 4, and Australians suddenly lose all interest in cricket.

[Lindsay Wilson]

No, some of us had to grab some sleep :wink: ...and I'd stay it's pretty even at 7 for 319

I guess the number of seats available will be directly proportional to the score.

I believe this relates on a 1 - 1 basis to the other side's 1st innings runs.

And I am expecting that Australia's score will be somewhat proportional to that of Eggland given that state of play at the end of day 1. The more runs the poms can get, the more runs the Aussies should be able to dig out. Well that is my hope anyway, but given how the Wallabies and Lions have gone recently, and the Broncos are on a 5 game losing streak, I should expect to disappointed with the cricket result :cry: .

I'm not a cricket person (AFL is my game) but can someone please explain the final score in terms of how much a ticket to London will cost (in pounds) and how many tickets will be available?
