The Ashes

[MN5]

Poor old @NTA is fucked either way. If the Marshes fail then he has to lament two shit players. If they do ok then he'll just say it's a fluke and they'll be shit next time.

[mimic]

M. Marsh is playing some glorious strokes

[NTA]

At this point, happy to see MMarsh hey out immediately after lunch for 49, then Cummins, Starc, and Smith to smash us to a lead (Smith double ton, Cummins Starc 50 each) and declare.

Then bowl the poms out tonight for 58.

[MN5]

Smith might well be the freakiest freak who I've ever seen play cricket. He's too crap to be as awesome as he is.

[mimic]

M. Marsh smashing Australia forward.. only a few runs behind now..

[NTA]

Mitch Marsh highest test score. His tenure in the test side assured forever. Except the 50% of games he'll miss every year, injured.

[mimic]

And he brings up his ton..

[Chris B.]

England's selection of fast medium bowlers has no answers in these conditions.

Aussie seamers are generally taller and faster - able to ask more and better questions.

@mariner4life thoughts on this effort?

[NTA]

Double ton to Smith. Fucking legend

[No Quarter]

Smith is an absolute freak. Right now he's seperated himself from the "chosen 4". Root, Kane and Kohli have some work to do to try & match his exploits.

Well, Root and Kohli do. Kane can't as we have no fucking tests scheduled.

[booboo]

Not read recent posts ... but who reckons he'll get 3 hundy?

[mariner4life]

Mitch marsh got 150? Get fucked. How shit are england?

What are you on about?
Kohli's has 6 double tons.. (3 of them in 2017)

His last 4 innings reads 104*, 213, 243, 50..

.... against Sri Lanka at home... who haven't exactly set the world on fire recently...

Don't get me wrong, Kohli is some player, but Smith is in a league of his own at the moment.

[NTA]

@booboo nup. They'll get Marsh to 200 and think declare with half a session to go tomorrow, then unleash the Quicks.

One can always find excuses.. Smith is batting on a road..
Heck, M. Marsh is on 181*, goes to show how shit England are..

Kohli has 6 test tons against Australia atm, with 5 of them in Australia.. I thought that was quite impressive..

Haha, OK, let's simplify things. Who has the better record overall?
