you don’t want top bowlers to get in a rhythm at one batsman it’s common knowledge that..

Starc's the only top bowler playing, he wasn't bowling and he's 15 overs in today and has his pace has dropped right off.

It's suicidal cricket. Giving Australia the game.

Normal service resumed, Root batting well, all the other cunts falling around him - tbf the last bit is always the case

I can't believe Stokes did that. Clearly was feeling the pressure but a run out when we were in a comfortable position. It's about seeing the day out and coming back to bat when it's easier in the daylight. Such a silly dismissal and it's got the Aussies right back into the game, with Smith gone too. Huge pressure on Jacks now to dig in.

All the chat about the colour of the ball is irrelevant if you give your wicket away!

Miss judged run and you have to say that run out was brilliant one stump to hit to! Thought stokes batting wise looked good just a shame really!

Brilliant fielding isn’t the issue, don’t give them the opportunity to brilliantly field is the issue. Mindset

I just want Rooty to get his century now.

Glad to hear from the commentator how brilliantly Jacks is playing (on 3!). Mindset

I think you'll find it's 8 (17) thank you very much!

Anyone know what an average score is first innings day night match in Brisbane?

290 but it's only from 3 tests.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

No idea how conditions are playing but I’d imagine we will be well in this game with a 300+ total.

Yep just to shut up the ones who say can he be one of the best if he didn’t get a ton in Australia

 

[waspish]

One hit from a ton for Root

 

[domalino]

I can't believe Aggers just jinxed it like that bloody hell.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Aussies appeal for everything, worse than India

 

[waspish]

Wicket looks good just the conditions that gets the movement

 

[waspish]

Starcs back that will concentrate Roots mind

 

[meeesh]

Another baseball player, wouldn't be putting too much faith in that Jacks

 

[waspish]

Bit of waft that to a wide ball jacks out

 

[Claytop]

Sigh

 

[BringBackSwales]

Stupid cunts wafting outside the off stump. Fuck off McCullum
