When instead of dropping the out of form all rounder you drop a front line bowler to try to cover for him by bringing in another all rounderArmchair expert wrote:Get the no-rounder off already far out

Re: The Ashes 25/26
Agreed. I never agreed with the Richardson selection either. There’s no shortage of fast bowlers around the country that were worthy of an opportunitydaysofourlives wrote:To be fair Richardson looked a long way off the level in Melbourne where assistance for bowlers was the greatest its ever beenSharksta wrote:When instead of dropping the out of form all rounder you drop a front line bowler to try to cover for him by bringing in another all rounderArmchair expert wrote:Get the no-rounder off already far out

Re: The Ashes 25/26
Root looking ominous here stared the series with a ton, will he finish it with one as well

Perhaps Armie could help out with a prediction.

Re: The Ashes 25/26
Looks a good pitch to bat on, we just need some BazBall shots so they get themselves out.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

Re: The Ashes 25/26
This looks to be one of the least intimidating bowling lineups of all time for Australia. Very pop gunnish attack

Re: The Ashes 25/26
England going at just under 5 an over without taking any risks
More mature innings today from Harry Brook
These 2 have history with at least 3 x 300 plus run stands in test cricket
Know they have a multitude of similar partnerships in County cricket
Need a breakthrough sooner rather than later

Re: The Ashes 25/26
Ronnie just keeping the inner sanctum happy.
Khawaja gets his farewell
Webster needed to get a game because his been around the squad all summer and it wouldn’t be fair if he didn’t. Can’t drop Green coz he is the ‘future’
Aussies look real flat apart from Carey who is keeping well. Even the wicket celebrations seemed very business as usual. Flat performance may just be met with a couple of days in the field.
Not sure we should be surprised though with the comments coming from the Australian camp after the Boxing Day test loss, especially from Trav and Ronnie.

I wonder if Australia would have picked the same team if the series was still alive.

Re: The Ashes 25/26
The Ashes are done. Thanks Ronald. We haven't fired a shot since he said that. Disgraceful.

Re: The Ashes 25/26
3-211 and it’s too dark for the batters!!!
No wonder South Africa aren’t playing a home test series this year in favour of t20.
