Just maybe, try a yorker or 2.

Bowl a YORKER!!! For gods sake, are we that dumb

[LaughingKookaburra]

England can go get ******. Never gave a shit about the spirit of the game when using mints on the Duke, Broad edging to slip nor the body line scenario. Have a ******* whinge…

Because Australia have always played in the spirit of the game hey???

Nope, however it’s something that seriously happens at every level every week. It’s lazy Cricket at Test level and out every day of the week. To play the spirit of the game card is seriously laughable!

50 partnership off 29 balls and Broad has made 1.

Crap bowling plans by the aussies here

[Booney]

Broad got his lip going, f*ck him off straight after lunch.

Usman wasn’t happy at a couple of the old cronies in the long room and looked like he wanted to belt one. Wonder what was said

Yeah noticed that…hopefully it was in regards to the bairstow dismissal and not anything more personal or upsetting.

It certainly made Usman stop and have words back at them

But Australia messed up in that last hour of play by going back completely to that short ball stuff to Dunkett. 4-down for bugger all, why not really attack him with some quick bowling at the top of off and 2 slips and 2 gullies. See whether he really is Test Match material.
They did this first and to be fair Dunkett absolutely smashed them behind point

He had, but I would have given Starc another spell at it when it was around 4/70.

They had a crack at Warner too.

Looking at the footage there was a couple of blokes finger pointing and obviously had a bit to say. The ushers/security trying to calm them down

Can’t blame them for having a crack at Warner….who wouldn’t.

[FlyingHigh]

That was disgraceful by the Aussies. Keeping up the same tactics, not enough clear thinking to even give Labuschagne or Head a bowl
After three balls of that Green over, bring in a regulation field and bowl at the stumps. Don't keep doing what Stokes wants.
Similarly, when you've got three balls at Broad, regulation field, couple of balls to get him on the backfoot and then have a go at the stumps or get him nicking to slips.
I feel this Test Cummins has looked a bit unsettled and got a bit emotional at times, including when he got out yesterday.
This Test has got a bit ugly, both teams are to blame, but I don't think the umpires should be absolved for allowing England to bowl how they did yesterday for so long,

[Jim05]

If the roles were reversed the uproar on here would break post records.

Don’t agree with it at all.

The same England that ran a bloke out at Lords who wandered out of his crease after awaiting a LBW appeal.

Agreed. Great theatre but also can lead to a loss of focus.

This will be over in 20 minutes if they keep bowling so short.
