The Ashes 2017/2018

Any chance they’ll get a move on once we pass the Poms score?
I know it’s a Test and all but it really is boring watching it.

We are not even at tea on day 3.
We will be 250+ ahead by this time tomorrow and roll them inside 3 sessions

I’m not so sure........ if Khawaja and Marsh can make runs it can’t be that bad a pitch to bat on.
Root is due for his first ton and wouldn’t surprise to see Cook get another big ton.

Lyon will have it turning sideways and hopefully Smith and Warner get a trundle they are both miles better that Ali or Root

[amber_fluid]

Yeah we will rely heavily on Lyon to spin us to victory as there isn’t much in it even for our quick bowlers.

Crane closing in on his 100

Theres a format that might suit you a bit better, think it comes on at about 6 30 tonight

They have hit rock bottom with this viewer verdict crap [emoji47]

Nah love the Test matches but being a dead rubber it is a tad boring.

This is good hard Test Cricket. The pitch gave a little bit early on day 1, has got better over the last two days and is starting to take some serious turn. Should deteriorate more tomorrow and make batting difficult by late day 4 and day 5. A quality Test pitch, hope the MCG curator is watching this.

[The Dark Knight]

First 50 run partnership for the Marsh brothers. Mitch starting to open his shoulders while Shaun plods along nicely.

[Grenville]

I reckon Swampy's missus will be in for a torrid night, Swampy will be toey as after watching his boys batting today.

[carey]

Absolutely laughable.

Was never out, but no way did he hit it.

[RustyCage]

MM definitely didn't hit that. Was missing the stumps anyway, but if it wasn't, that would be a horrible call

[Yangebup]

This DRS is a joke - that LBW was reversed saying he hit the ball but he hit his pad, as it was it was supposedly missing leg stump but if If the umpire gives you out then your OUT full stop get off!

In AFL if your paid a mark & it was touched but the Ump paid it well its a mark full stop.
Give the Umps some cred or soon we wont have any?

[The Dark Knight]

100 partnership up. Mitch Marsh has been smoking them, cashing in on some tired bowlers.

Yeah let's us AFL umpiring as the standard we should be looking to achieve!!

[Jim05]

The Poms have given up. Nothing like starting the day to some Ali half trackers and Crane full bungers. Fielders are moping around like Browns cows and totally disinterested. We will roll them very cheaply

[Brodlach]

Crane bowling the most overs and now the new ball

Feel for the lad

[Jim05]

Cook is that bored he fell asleep, that nick went straight past him, very easy catch

[batmanbegins]

Feel a bit sorry for jimmy, the aussies can basically just sit on him and milk runs off the others. He'd be superb in the aussie bowling line up with the support he would get but hes had nothing from broad or woakes all series.

[am Bays]

Yup. DRS is a joke when the 3rd umpire starts looking for things.

Has to be absolutely clear evidence that the decision was wrong and that isn't clear evidence.

This umpire Ravi from India is in the Billy Bowden in league looking for sh!t that puts him at the centre of attention rather than it being on the players.

DRS is only a joke when humans miss-use or miss-understand the technology.
