either way could cost them the ashes, i think personally they will come up and go for the win


No, don't think they will, being two down, and those being Root and Burns.

And @ northerner - no excuses for Lyon tonight on the last day. Can't put the last test down to him coz that test finished mid-way through day four - well before the Poms even started their second innings this test.


Correct weight, no excuses for Lyon today. The game situation and pitch are set up perfectly for him to make an impact today.

I would have opened with Starc, both these bats struggle with anything coming back in. If it was to swing, it will be early

Looks like it’s going to be a grind today unless Lyon can bowl us to victory.

Lyon isn't bowling very well at the moment .... needs to be much more consistent

Series over now be over by tea, Cummins is unreal. Between him, bumrah and Rabada there is some terrific bowling talent.

Only so many times we can ask one bloke to save us (he’s not Smith after all :lol: )

Hmmm .... should we have taken the new ball? We were getting more movement from old ball.
