  1. Alpine have gone from battering McLaren to watching them fight Red Bull and Mercedes whilst they're double DNFIng. Brutal
  2. Piastri with a clever dart inside Hamilton whilst he was trying to fight Norris. Kid definitely has talent
  3. The ball on the replay diverted about 90 degrees and made a massive "thunk" sound and the umpires are like, "errrr go to Ultra edge"
  4. Been pretty disappointed today. Looked very blunt
  5. If we can get these two then we're almost into the tail. Making them look nice and comfy atm tho
  6. Remember when the umpires put us in for 30 minutes in a storm earlier in the series and Australia got two wickets? I'll take that here
  7. Went to see Mission Impossible today. Another hit for the MI franchise. That's 4 excellent films in 12 years
  8. Kinda wish Aus had picked Murphy over Green given he's far worse a bat. Still a way off burning through their innings.
  9. ....like that. Now get Labuschagne
  10. These two are the big partnership and could seal the series for Australia. I don't think they'll fall for the Moeen nonsense again so England had better find a plan as they look ominous
  11. Stupid thing is Green grassed one off Gill in the WTC final and so did Smith off Root previously just as unclear and unable to be given out.... and they were given. You've got to be consistent. If a hand isn't clearly under the ball and you "can't tell" it has to be given not out
  12. 1 down. 9 to go. Side note, not sure why we've already bowled Moeen this early. I don't think his bowling is smart enough to get batsmen out unless they're ramping him and the pitch doesn't look a spinners dream
  13. We're quite slow with our overs and they have Smith, Labuschagne, Carey and Khawaja who can stick in with Green, Head, Marsh, Warner and Starc being fast scorers. We took 3 and a bit sessions to bowl them out when they were being a little bit sloppy. I think this will be a battle
  14. Well there's good news and bad news. The bad news is that Tony Bennett is gone, very sad. The good news is.... I'm on the board for this year in the Dead Pool so.. You're still thinking about the bad news aren't you?
  15. Feel as funny as that was (and it was very very funny) we've batted way too long. This pitch is flat and not doing loads. Smith and Labuschagne will feast if we're not smart. Let's hope we can gouge out 5 of them before the close. Reckon we'll have them at best 2 down though
  16. I've not seen Australia's cricket team's head fall off like this - ever.
  17. I still feel like we should already be bowling at Australia with them 56-1 though. We've not got much time in the game left
  18. Really don't understand not declaring though. We're already losing overs now and tomorrow is a washout and may lose half of Sunday too.
  19. Kinda feels like a below part morning.... but we've got 500 on the board. We need to make our bowling count. Get those top 5 out as cheaply as possible or they'll hurt us. We've only got potentially 5 sessions to get out a deep batting lineup
  20. What's the Bairstow score here then. A very choppy 18 (44) I reckon
  21. You'd have to imagine Australia will bat much better second innings on a helpful surface. But this has been some really negative bowling from Australia. England-esque (of previous years that is)
  22. Root out for under 100 too which is a shame. Means instead ofa huge last hour its a rebuild with two new batters. We need 100+ overs to get Australia out however on this surface so our time is valuable
  23. Crawley finally gone for a run a ball 180. Monstrous innings from an out of form player
