Ashes 2025/6
-
Oz innings all over. England will need 183 just to get them to bat again which given the extremely hit or miss nature of their batting, Stokes being injured and the fact they look like they want to get on the first plane to Heathrow might be bloody tough for them.
Webster with some nice batting against tired bowlers this morning.
-
Tongue gets Smith and Starc to continue an underrated but solid tour, Jacks gets Boland. Webster proves once again that he is a test quality player.
-
Webster makes the selectors look a bit silly with a double breakthrough (off another incredibly poor shot option, some of the batting this summer....) and England are suddenly under huge pressure
-
Bethell looks pretty classy. Wonder how the series turns out if he'd been playing over Ollie Pope. Hell, even just the Adelaide test could have been a big difference.
The difference between his first and second innings performances are pretty stark. Probably just an early career quirk, but wonder if there's something psychological there.

Was pointed out Bethell has faced more balls so far in this innings than Duckett faced all series. 232 vs 221

Tbf the 3rd ump stitched him up

Rather than the high quality contest of two good teams, this entire Ashes summer is closer to a fucking meme.

4-1
Pretty accurate reflection of the difference between the teams.
