Ashes 2023

[The Dark Knight]

100 run partnership
Moeen Ali's birthday today

[batmanbegins]

This is just really poor by Jonny. His keeping was getting really decent a few years back but he kind of gave them up to focus on batting and its clear that's the case. This will probably cost us the game, if foakes was keeping we would potentially have you all out already.

So hearing a code of conduct violation for Ali.

Also footage if Anderson pulling something out of his pocket with the ball.

[Brodlach]

Moeen Ali has been fined 25% for breaching the ICC Code of conduct as he was seen applying a drying agent to his bowling hand at the boundary line during fielding.

[stan]

Ahhh Carey, was a reasonable nut from Anderson.

[Jim05]

Change of ball after Ali tonked into the car park and Anderson bowls Carey

[tigerpie]

Geez that was a good nut.
At least he didn't get out sweeping.
Was batting really well.

I think Anderson had Broad’s karate kid headband in his pocket

[The Dark Knight]

Partnership of 118, trail by 55. Huge wicket that as I can't see the tail lasting long enough to at least go level with England

[The Bedge]

I’m torn.. see Khawaja open up and score as many as he can quickly, or knuckle down and carry his bat

[am Bays]

New ball please….

Pat is dispatching enough pies to keep the score ticking along nicely

[tigerpie]

That concrete in front of the sightscreen is doing the ball no end of damage.
Hope they've got plenty of spares.

It's about time CAPT Pat showed something with the bat.
Poetry gentlemen

Robinson you F***ing fraud

How can a 40 year old bowl 130 plus in his 4th spell and then you come on and bowl mid 120s in your fourth spell.

Damien Fleming nailed you, you’re just not fit enough to pay test cricket.

Keep taking poles at 1st class level on green tops, soon as you get on a test pitch you are seriously pooh.

Unless you’ve got the skills of Philander or Anderson you can not afford to play test cricket and bowl under 130.

[Jim05]

Cameras picked up Broad muttering “shit pitch” as he walked back to his mark.

Might want to take it up with your skipper and the ECB for doctoring it

Least he’s bending his back and having a crack

I rate Broad, very good test cricketer.

[The Dark Knight]

Alex Carey was the 1100th first class wicket for James Anderson.

[Spargo]

Said before, I know - but geez Ponting is a delight to listen to. Second to none.

I feel like everytime I listen to him talk and commentate about the game I learn something new, continually insightful. He's the type of person that when he speaks everyone immediately listens.
