[RB]

If we put away the dumb shots we can win.

Agree.

Every ball short obviously a team management decision

It’s just bloody stupid … by everyone involved.

I’m no expert by any means. I just think if you bowl at the stumps, you’re a chance of getting a wicket

Just need one, perhaps 2 half decent partnerships with a low chase. Lose early wickets and it’s all over.

Got Trav winning the match all over it. … especially now he’s opening

[Armchair expert]

Whats Usmans excuse this time?

There’s no wheelchair access

Head opening oh well

[Lightning McQueen]

How good is test cricket?? No better format.
Saying that, this test is also a great example how T20 has ruined test batsmen.
Big difference between being aggressive and being stupid. Bowling has been pretty good too.

*Carse wicket is a prime example.

Two sides to the argument, at least we’re seeing far less draws nowadays, I’m glad the game has tweaked a little, attacking batting and bowling everywhere but the sub-continent.

It was a batters game for far too long.

[Lightning McQueen]

Head opening oh well

I don’t like it but it’s a sign of the times, he’s probably better suited to the harder ball

[Booney]

0/7

Im betting

Aus $2.05
Eng $1.89

One day I’ll understand the tactic of bowling short to tailenders so you’ve only got one mode of dismissal.

The same day that I’ll understand night watchmen.

The day after I’ll understand women….

3rd Ump is my early pick for Man of the Match

I’ve only just tuned in (work ) why is Trav opening?

They locked Uzi in the dunny.

The one advantage is it keeps the rest of the order as is.
And Uzi might be able to contribute usefully at 5 or 6 (hopefully tomorrow).

Keep this up and it won’t be long before the Poms start pulling a few heart muscles.
