    I'm back. Go England.

    How many times have Australia cheated or moaned like buggery about something they would have done no question in the reverse circumstance?

    😁

    Australia have only batted an over less, but have half the runs. They still have 4 wickets in hand but massive pressure on Carey now. Mitchell Starc will be pissed though. Is this his moment for a maiden test ton?

    Bugger, fell just 88 runs short

    So 121 for 7 ...

    Every time I come back there's another wicket.

    Where are these teams ranked in Test Cricket?

    And why are we really worried about how ...

    ... oh 8 down ...

    ...two awful team go against each other who play each other every second week?

    At this rate Australia will bat for more than an hour today.

    Maybe even more two hours? Not much more, though! 🙂

    Lyon has never managed a 50 in 139 test matches. That’s not very good for a number 9.

    A lot of soft dismissals.

    Crowd got their money's worth!

    Huh.

    My favourite day watching v cricket in recent memory was the Sunday as Baz and his minions desperately held on to try and deny India an inevitable win.

    There was no chance of winning.

    It was desperately holding on for a draw. Hour upon hour.

    It was ball after ball of not getting out.

    Baz made three-hundy. And we didn't lose.

    We get to here and 19 dudes lose their wickets in 360 mns?

    Can not one batsman out of supposedly the two best teams in world cricket not bat for more that two hours?

    Well that must have been an interesting days cricket. Looking forward to the highlights somewhat - well at least the second half.

    There's no tension on day one compared to the back end of a second innings, so wickets entertains the crowd.

    well i woke up and England were already all out, which was a pretty depressing start to the day, so at 10am, i'll take that as a first day's cricket. Just goes to show what a wicket with a bit in it can deliver and how hard it is to bat against top class fast bowling on it.

    Archer, Wood, Carse and Atkinson were brilliant, and Stokes gets 5. Madness

    Disgraceful cricket from both sides.

    Yes, spicy wicket obviously but thr shot selections were appalling.

    As a bowler I love this, but...

    I wish Ollie Robinson was playing. That guy was great value in the 2023 Ashes on and off the field.
