The Ashes

By:
Roy opened the gates, often happens, a terrible shot is the catalyst
|
|
By:
puts into context moeen's horrific display yday. surely leach will be playing at lords
|
|
By:
the bastard and chemical might as well not even bother strapping em' on. Saves further shame
au contraire I think they should come out wearing stockings and suspenders to save English Cricket any further embarrassment  ! |
|
By:
What were you guys expecting from Roy?
|
|
By:
Evening gents
|
|
By:
Leach should have been playing here!
We should have had two spinners! He may even have helped Comical had he kept things tight and taken the pressure off him |

4/1 draw could be big if Stokes and Buttler don't lose the partnership within 30 overs.
|
|
By:
We know Stokes can do miracles
|
|
By:
these 2 need to replicate their stand in the WC final but take much longer doing it..Bairstow could hang around and Woakes but can't see the 4 of them basically batting 2 sessions

 this is all roys fault, they were fecking cruising |
|
By:
WD, indeed. only blind faith was really keeping him in the side for this match. hasn't got or looked like getting a score for a long time now. he looks shot to pieces both as a batsman and bowler at the moment. almost cruel to keep picking him

fcuking mugs have let them get another over in.
|
|
By:
So let's see what happens to the Eng price at 340 if we get a partnership.
I can see Aus 1.2 maybe getting back to evens but I can't see Eng coming into 60-odd unless they score at a pretty hefty rate. |
|
By:
the draw is still possible
|
|
By:
in a parallel universe maybe!
|
|
By:
eng have got a phuckload of batting to do to see aus @ evens
|
|
By:
extra over now might be one less for 9 10 jack
to face at end of game... |

85/4 lunch

Aussies could regret there late declaration last night 370 was enough really.

By:
yeah jucel, you are right, my post was after 5 balls of that over,
just a bit of hopeful hindsite on my behalf |
|
By:
really should have had a proper bowl at england last night. at least an hour. don't look like mattering now though
|
|
By:
England carry to much baggage after that world cup final diabolical tie
|
|
By:
how can it be a draw?
|
|
By:
ahh how many overs is there then?
|
|
By:
the selectors have got to get to grips with the not good enoughs and bang out of form for the next test as there is no way they can save this
imo Burns will get phuck all in the upcoming matches if they persist in selecting him Denly not good enough-Malan is better but..... Johnny B imo not a red ball test cricketer Foakes is better keeper AND a better no7 Test batsman Moin Ali is so out of form it's unreal got to be dropped |
|
By:
all these players getting dropped...who for?
|
|
By:
you say malan is better..averages under 28 in tests (26 innings)
batting down the order |
|
By:
indeed WD .. and even if they were obvious replacements dropping after 1 test of a series smacks of a lack of process and could lead to a shambles of the highest order
|
|
By:
archer for anderson and leach for moeen. doubt they'll change anyone else at this stage although denly and bairstow are both skating on very thin ice
