@Siam said in Ashes 2019:
Wow. Ain't test cricket grand.
Best result for the sake of the series. Every session is vital now and we know what both teams are capable of, good and bad.
For the record: I blame you.
@Siam said in Ashes 2019:
@NTA that session and a bit yesterday morning and "loose bus change" has darn well kept you boys your urn.
Pretty good 100 odd overs mate!
All done and dusted with 2 to play. Congrats

Stokes deserves all the plaudits.WC final and now this. Pressure means nothing to him and that’s what separates the great from the all time great.
A very very special sportsman.

No, fuck Stokes and fuck his bullshit deflection for four and fuck the umpires for giving him 6 fucking runs instead of 5. In summary fuck that lucky fluffybunny.
And no, I’m not yet over the CWC.

4th test this Wednesday.
Word is Starc is back in. you would hope in place of Pattinson, who has done fuck all. Sorry Siam, he just hasn't stepped up.
Geoff Lawson was on TV last night having a pretty decent rant at the fact there was even a murmur that Mitch Marsh will come back in to the side. That would be hugely retarded.
Khawaja set to be the bloke who makes way for Steve Smith apparently.

Pattinson has performed about as well as Siddle. Ok, nothing more.
I think Marsh coming in would be because they don't trust Starc's accuracy. If Starc has an off spell they need a 4th seamer.
I was hoping Wade would be more consistent but the bulk of his runs have come in one innings. Mitchell Marsh is probably about as likely to get runs as he is right now

Oz two best bats survive until rain. Labuschagne is a class batsman.
Oz 98/2
Replay of the final day of the last test. Even better watching it again!
