Ollie Robinson.... Another gobby English prick.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Labuschagne must be on coke.

Ollie Robinson.... Another gobby English prick.

Yeah because the Aussies are known to be mealy-mouthed

2 down!

no ball

 

[Don Karleone]

Fuck sake

 

[Bill Walker]

2 down!

no ball

Fuck fucking fuck :(

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Fucking hell, that’s disappointing.

 

[lancs blue]

That wasn't even a close call for a no-ball,

 

[Don Karleone]

Getting no luck here

 

[domalino]

I'm calling it a night here.

They've bowled well, very unlucky with the no ball, and 3 or 4 edges that have just gone a meter wide or short of the slips.

Australia do have a short batting line up (4 basically). If Labuschagne gets in then England are in trouble, but Warner is the kind of guy who can get out easily anywhere in his innings. I wouldn't be surprised if I woke up in the middle of the night and saw they'd taken a 4 or 5 wickets with Smith holding out.

You’ll wake up and Warner will have scored a century after the ball died.

 

[hello]

If only we lost the toss! Pretty decent bowling well under control run rate wise, wouldn't be a dead test till Friday

 

[Don Karleone]

This is painful to watch

 

[Bill Walker]

This is painful to watch

Did England kill a nun on the way to the ground ?

 

[Don Karleone]

Going to bed, sod this

 

[jimharri]

So; 193-3 at tea. What sort of lead do we reckon the Aussies will get? 200+?

 

[waspish]

Never watched one ball today we over 100 behind stokes injured unless it rains we one down Root ain’t good enough captain fielding shocking batting shocking.

 

[melrose40yarder]

We are going to need a Cook and Trott type batting effort in the 2nd dig.That wont happen even if we got them for 300 cant see us setting them more than 150.
As a previous poster said if only we had lost the toss.We are goosed here.

 

[melrose40yarder]

How is Leach the best spinner in England?Captain marvel has bowled Robinson into the ground.
Worst of all we need wkts and the field is spread.

 

[waspish]

One plus when we get beat 4-1 or probably 5-0 Root be gone as captain! Just put stoke on to bowl when he isn’t fit! He should be bowling himself before an unfit player!
