1am???

Someone’s feeling optimistic…

Yep years of preparation for this ashes down the shitter after 2 games!

Years ? Moments more like.

To go there and still try and play the "I don't understand test cricket", cricket is criminal, the sooner we get back to playing "test" cricket the better, a 5-0 drubbing should hasten that.

I've not even watched any highlights so far, other than clips of stupidity the new have shown, seriously doubt this will change in this test either.

T20 cricket has it's place, and it's not in test cricket.

I thought that when I heard Cummins and Hazelwood would be absent for some of the series.

My pre series prediction of a 3-2 English series victory still looking good…

Only once has someone come from 0-2 to win 3-2 in an Ashes series, it wasn't England, and unless there's been significant re-education it won't be this England sadly.

Swing and nip. We need to pitch the ball up.

Carse is far too wayward to be opening the bowling.

If the new ball attack fails, we’ve always got Jacks to spin them out.

What time will we revert to the bouncer plan?
