Ashes 4th test Boxing Day - Melbourne Discussion

Ian Bell
About 23 innings in Australia for 1 century in three tours
At least 10 times passed 50 for only 1 ton in Australia

Today's first ball dismissal to a dreadful half shot was poor for his standards
England's savior in England 2013 has not stood up when he's been needed this series

is Ian Bell the pommies answer to Watto????

Reminded me of a England vs India series in India a couple of years ago

England were under the pump and ian bell first ball danced down the wicket off the spinner and skied one to the Indian mid off for a goldy

Seeya Stokes!

[Squids]

Need to be chasing below 300 imo

[daysofourlives]

Why can't people who sit near the sightscreen stay sill when the bowler is running into bowl ffs, idiots.

on the contrary, why do they all of a sudden have to have 100m wide sightscreens and restricting seats where people could sit? what was wrong with the old sightscreens?

The current sightscreens actually allow more seats to be used.
The old sightscreens were just as wide but you couldnt see through them

No, least Bell doesnt break down

[Jim05]

Mitch breaks through again
Run through these pricks now

Bairstow is a Sunday league hack

That is two of the scaredest dismissals you will ever see at test level

[helicopterking]

Now to laugh at how scared England's bottom 4 are.

Agreed, he was $hitting bricks.
He wasnt prepared to get his body anywhere near it

Even when he was hitting Lyon (good shots admittedly) I think there was a massive mind frame of 'ill hit out before Mitch comes on

[wristwatcher]

Bresnan can bat. We will be chasing 300 I reckon.

Yes 300-320 is on the cards.
Cant see us getting close unless Warner tons up. With Watto and Bailey we are effectively 2/0

[wristwatcher]

Your welcome

[Jim05]

Maybe not, Bresnan bowled by Lyon

[Jim05]

Lets see if Broad can get his feet out of the way today
