Ashes 2023

[DOC]

I'm going by the forecast that tomorrow will be fine for batting. Would like to have wickets in hand to bat then rather than being all out today for 25 more.

As I type the sun comes out!

Starc 14 off 14 looking quite good. Up to Head to stay with him

[DOC]

What a terrible shot

Starc gone for 16

7/168

[Lightning McQueen]

Marsh gone
Caught behind trying to leave a ball outside off off of Woakes.

Ball moving around under the grey skies and lights.

Tough batting conditions which Australia have faced the worst of throughout the series it seems

Did that seem weird writing that?

[Jim05]

Our batting has been deplorable this test, we really don’t deserve to win

[Lightning McQueen]

Power Point Pat needs to perform another captains knock

[Lightning McQueen]

Gee we were lucky Wood and Woakes didn’t play in the first two tests, throw Archer in there and their bowling stocks look very healthy.

Lol Yes it did. I checked it a few times and strangely it makes sense

[Lightning McQueen]

If Kensington is called “The Oval”, Headingly should be called “The Square”.

I could imagine, I would’ve read it back to myself about 15 times and still felt that I’ve erred.

Not that that matters

Murphy 10 off 4 Head struggling to hit anything other than singles

[Lightning McQueen]

Murphy 10 off 4 Head struggling to hit anything other than singles

And now he’s denying Murphy the strike, I’m never a fan of that shit

[jackpot jim]

Head now turning down the singles to Shield Murphy
Not sure it's the right tactic
Gets it away for 4 Lead 210

[jackpot jim]

All 9 fielders on the fence to Head and he still finds the boundary 47*

[jackpot jim]

These umpires are an utter joke with their lack of wide calls for bouncers

50 up for Head 53* lead by 225

[Jim05]

50 to Trav

[Lightning McQueen]

8 down and they need a committee meeting after balls 4 and 5 each over, over rate fines aren’t heavy enough?

Getting beyond a joke the time they're taking

[Lightning McQueen]

I’ve tried to like Broad so many times over the years, I just can’t seem to.

[jackpot jim]

Bullshit LBW of Murphy

That was going over the top . Ball tracking BS

Hows the Turd umpire asking for ultra edge when the ball missed the bat by at least 4 inches.
