Ashes 2017/18

Get the feeling this a huge first hour. Just showed that 230 is the highest ever 4th inning run chase, so anything over a 200 lead gives us a chance.

Be shocked if we get anywhere near 230 lead 130/150 I reckon

Comfortable start though to be fair.

Also, where is everyone? It’s bloody empty and that isn’t helping the aussies.

South Africa v India is the real series this winter, just not got a catchy marketable name yet.

Endland’s left handlers need to go back to the nets and learn how to play good off spin I reckon.

48-4 not looking good now lion causing havoc. Not a chance we going to get a decent score plus our spinner Ali won’t cause the same problem as Lion so even if we by a miracle get 180/200 lead won’t be enough.

funny how Lyon was a last resort "well, we have to pick someone" spinner in past tours, now he's a world beater. Shows how far England have declined from the Trott/KP era.

Well after 4 days at watching England we ain’t got the bowlers or enough batters who will get big score so win at least 2 test matches and what we need to do to keep the ashes.
