Fantastic catch. About time something happened. Fuck off you boring cunts.

I think it's pretty difficult to see for the batsmen, and England are bowling very well.

That's a great catch by Root though - I thought it was the keeper's really though!

Fucking 9 off 82. Disgraceful stuff.

Fantastic catch.

Wicket keepers catch all day that, great take from Root if must be difficult being first slip with Bairstow as keeper.

Fantastic catch.

Labuschagne deserved that after making Chris Tavare look like Ian Terence Botham. Slowest scoring innings on English soil by a Convict - having faced 75 balls or more - for 114 fucking years!

Me too but I do think there's nothing wrong with digging in when it comes to test cricket. However, I don't think this is the time or place for it. Australia have retained the Ashes and are only facing a modest first innings England total rather than looking to bat out the final day and a half to save the match - like Atherton's 185 not out in South Africa that time - so scoring at this rate makes little sense to me.

Bob on. They are just doing it to make a point! Great. Let’s kill the game. Let’s bore people away from watching. Playing for a draw from ball one after you’ve retained the ashes. Is there more of a dislikable sports team outside old toilet and Canfield?
