The Ashes 2023

[Connor]

Lads, youse bounced him out so easy in that first innings, just do it again?

 

[tommye]

Why are none of these balls smashing into the batsman's ribs?

 

[Rita_Poon]

That Pope wicket is a real thumper.

TMS earlier, I think I heard that it's a modern record for england to have ten players score double digits, but no one made a fifty.

 

[davids]

It wasn't the only issue, but it was a poor decision that helped Australia. 30 more runs here would have been enormous

The way the game was going then,if they'd got the go ahead to throw the bat it could have been 50 or even higher. To Root it must have looked like a basketball being delivered he was middling it so easily.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Uzzie Khawaja was supposed to be the out of form batsman ffs lol

Just came off being top scorer on the subcontinent in their last tour before here, mad shouts about people not rating him on here sure sometimes his feet don't get moving bit he's a terrific player.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

England are still in with this as favourites after the weather, Aussie would take a draw which is a huge moral victory, they've been playing catch up all test. Also can we thread ban comrade Kev please, honestly tell me you know nothing about cricket with every post.

Hopefully we'll get enough play in this afternoon to force a result. Regular wickets will be the key for England.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Wet start as forecast but will hopefully will clear up for 2 sessions of cricket. They can play on till after 7pm weather and light permitting.
