They need to get Head out soon or he'll win it by himself.

BringBackSwales - And England of new look like losing with Aussies with 10 wickets in hand - isn’t that basically the same?!

That aged well!

Fair fuck to the England fans, there in their thousands and supporting brilliantly

Always have travelled in numbers, can’t knock them at all, but it’s more sightseeing than cricket what these tours are now unfortunately as the games are over too soon, or sitting in pub for 2 days

9 wickets then

 

[Dr Jacoby]

A quadruple wicket maiden wouldn’t go amiss right now…

 

[BringBackSwales]

Why was that the first ball we’ve bowled on that line (the one to Labushagne just now)?

 

[jaiguruKun]

Wood bowls fast but doesn't attack the stumps so does not look threatening at all.

Do any of the England bowlers attack the stumps? Way too short. Surprised Stokes hasnt bowled until now

A bit like watching Lancashire now….bowling poorly that is….

 

[bluemoon32]

When does the test cricket start ?

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Stokes doing a KDB.

Exactly like that, same mindsets, and there’s 2/3 decent cricketers in both sides max

 

[red 2 hats]

Shite batting in both innings, great first innings bowling, second innings bowling reverted to type, gonna be a long but painful tour.

 

[bluemoon32]

Thank fuck this isn't one of the better Aussies sides

 

[BringBackSwales]

Talk about momentum shifts. At lunch we were 105 ahead with 9 wickets left, drinks break after tea aussies need only 13 more than that, also with 9 wickets left

 

[BringBackSwales]

2/3 of our deliveries have been short - that’s a fucking disgrace on this pitch, are they just stupid or is the coaching that bad?

The bowlers are just knackered. They gave everything yesterday and were bowling this morning. You can’t have an all pace attack and only give them a sesssion rest between innings.

 

[willipp]

Oh well, at least we’ve got bazball and we stick to our principles.

 

[dickie davies]

May as well bowl at Head with a beach ball

That makes it even worse. Cummins and Haizlewood to come back in = 5-0
