If Atkinson Carse Archer and Wood can slog 30 or 40 between then, and say another 20 from Smith and extras, that just about gets us a 200 lead. One things for sure, we won’t need to get up at daft o’clock on Monday

 

[BringBackSwales]

You can only hope our bowlers can do the same.

Hopefully they pitch the ball where the Aussies are doing rather than shorter. Also we don’t possess a swing bowler other than maybe Stokes

always wait till both teams have batted twice to judge the wicket

It’s a hard watch this as well as the Aussies are bowling we played at wide shots to early in our innings! But the pitch has sped up some today when I thought it would become easier! Going to need to bowl as good as first innings because looks like we won’t get 160 here!

 

[bert's broken neck]

My bad - just remembered the Indians got over 400 in the second innings! Don’t think our boys will beat that!

 

[dadnlad]

stokes must of said go for it with these shots

Yep after both teams have batted twice you can judge the result as well as the wicket!

Ffs Crawley!!!

Robert Key’s protege. Simply not good enough to open in Test cricket.

So; what's the bare minimum we'll need to make it a contest? 250? It seems a long way off at the moment. Yes, I know we prised them out for little more than half that in their first innings. But will they bat as badly again?

Aussies will not even get 100.

Crawley Root and Stokes got 16 between them in 6 innings. Fucking mad that we’ve had no proper warm up matches

Root stokes poor shot Crawley hit that bet he thought it was four it was a unbelievable catch after just bowling that ball!

shouldve played a couple of hundred games at least

 

[waspish]

Thought 250 be minimum but we bowl as well as first innings and let’s hope we do think 180/200 be very hard to get!

Big question is mentality will we bowl that accurately? Will Aussies not bat slightly better?

 

[Don Karleone]

Get on with it ffs

 

[madloaf]

It's not out, move on ffs

 

[dadnlad]
