England vs Australia Ashes

This match remains under control for England, but only just. And it so nearly could have been different. Ponting is the run machine for the Aussies, keep him under the cosh and England have a chance. And while Ponting was in the thirties the chance came - but Giles dropped it. Opportunities don't come often against Australia, and definitely not against Ponting and he went on to capitalise on the error. Dinally out after another century (and a bit) but the damage was done. It doesn't knock England out, but it takes away the main advantage, and a draw looks increasingly likely.
