Finn is pissing me off on commentary as well

"The bowlers aren't robots" well no fucking shit Sherlock but these are supposed to be the best England have. Surely they know how to bowl a consistent line and length.

78% of the convicts runs have been behind square and third man which clearly shows they are bowling far too short and it's not working. Surely the English coaching team have seen this and have got a message to Stokes

EDIT There you go full and straight does the trick

He is a nob and he had his nob out before this days play saying how Aussies be under pressure with our fast bowlers!

You can't blame him for thinking the fast bowlers who bowled well first innings in Perth would bowl well again.

He wouldn't have predicted they'd bowl 30 overs of shitty bouncers with no third man going for 6 an over.

Most test match captains use tactics other than "bowl so badly they get overconfident"

Another fucking drop.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Duckett’s having one.

 

[johnny crossan]

drop after drop - really poor

 

[borassic]

You wouldn't mind if he batted well

Another fucking drop.

 

[dadnlad]

Duckett’s having one.

motm so far

 

[waspish]

Stokes finally found the length need the rest now

 

[domalino]

If England get away with only being 50 behind here they'll be incredibly lucky and won't deserve it.

 

[borassic]

Get Jofra on to have a go

 

[Dr Jacoby]

The Smith and Duckett drops are proving costly.

 

[johnny crossan]

Archer's gonna pin him soon

 

[waspish]

Atkinson brought nothing to the team Carse been shite gone for massive runs but he can point to 3 wickets!

 

[waspish]

Unless this pitch gets well worse these bowlers of ours will be truly fucked for the second! I don’t want them to get 20 run lead because we will be batting in the last two hours of play tomorrow where there best bowler will take us apart

 

[waspish]

Our catching is fucking embarrassing and we have a few who are wank at it to!

 

[city5189]

Got to catch that,it's straight at him ffs

 

[domalino]

4 dropped catches in one day and 3 of them were absolute gimmes.

 

[johnny crossan]

Oz will probably win this by better catching.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Our fielding compared to theirs, a couple of their catches and the run out were breathtaking, and tbf some of our drops were breathtaking too

 

[domalino]

Oz will probably win this by better catching.

Or better batting.

Or better bowling.

Take your pick really.
