But surely there is a special place in hell reserved for the low-lifes who buy a "baggy green" on Ebay and wear it to test matches.
There's only 466 people who have earned the right to wear that cap.
Seen a couple of crowd shots over the last few days and have dry-retched.
Citizenship should be revoked.
Every other sport in the world supporters wear the team gear, but not with the baggy green for shame
Who TF cares. It's not a real one.
Paired with a lace up guernsey and sneans is the way to go…………..

No real difference to Sydney in summer really.

52 overs (we'll see) plus 15 in the last hour.

I would have thought England would have bowled short to Boland with a couple of close in catchers like the first innings.
Instead they are bowling to him like a batsman and he is playing them like one, defending when required, leaving mostly those out to tempt and scoring along the ground where possible.

On cue they bring in two catchers, bowl short then pitch one up which he was leaving and is caught behind for 20.
C'mon Trav!

Next hour decides this one. These two have to see it out

Totally agree.
Usi not looking to score which will just put pressure on the other end.

England bowling well though, especially Broad.
Agree the next hour is critical.
Warner nicking off to Robinson a sign of how he’s losing that critical reaction time as a test opener.

A poor innings by Head comes to a disappointing end

Usi gets to 50 and I think will be MOTM.
I think this is still an each way bet. Get to 190/200 5 down and we are favorites. Any wicket inside that puts England in front.
Need 117 with 44 remaining.

Green the key here, he has really worked hard on getting himself set

No Moen Ali after tea.
Root bowling and bowling well.

Green plays on after trying to steer it down to third man.
6/192. England a nostril in front.
Alex and Usi get us home!

Khawaja has done well anchoring the innings, but he's missed a lot of scoring opportunities. He's hit a lot of half volleys straight to fielders and his running between wickets has been poor at times. Has to see it through.

Yep. Hitting the ball hard but straight to fielders including three full tosses.
I think Carey needs to play his shots. I don't fancy our chances unless we look to score a bit more freely.
On cue he dispatches Moen to the fence to bring up the 200. Not sure how long he was back on before bowling ( Iam tired).

Broad and Anderson will be back on with the new ball soon.
