Mind games going on here

 

[BringBackSwales]

Might be being pessimistic but I’d say 80% Aussies, 20% us

 

[No.8]

What England would give to have the chance not to declare in the first innings. Not brave, Not clever it was utter madness with Joe Root in T/20 mode!!

Win , Lose or Draw these reckless decisions need to stop

 

[BringBackSwales]

May end up losing this test by a single inch (the marginal no ball from Broady on Kawaja first innings). Second text we deffo need a proper wicket keeper too (in my opinion)

Head says 5 wicket defeat, heart says 50 run victory.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Jimmy needs to be just outside off stump, like that

You have a good heart Dr J

When's cutoff this evening? 6:30-7pm?

 

[Claytop]

Need something here.

 

[BringBackSwales]

10 of the 11 batsmen made double figures, highest score 46 is a bit disappointing

 

[DMA's]

Pitch still seems pretty lifeless. Need something special to give us a chance

 

[Postman Pep]

Shades of 2005 here. Similar target openers going along nicely. Need Stokes to go through the pain barrier and recreate that Flintoff over.

Most disappointing is the only one who didn’t reach double figures is our bloody opener!

 

[BringBackSwales]

I wish somebody would set fire to merv Hughes’s moustache

 

[wattle]

Feels 60-70 runs short here

 

[ancoats]

Feels 60-70 runs short here

The moment Stokes declared in the first innings we were saying hold on we may need 50 to 70 at the end

Very true

 

[jimharri]

We really need to prise a couple of them out this evening. If they start tomorrow morning with all 10 wickets intact, you'd have to think they'd get the job done.
