Aus might as well give Lyon a rest next test. No Cummins or Hazelwood has hardly made a difference.

Are they back next test ? I have to say the “passengers” in this Oz team are pretty few and far between especially if they replace Harris with Khawaja.
In other news, this prediction has aged terribly, he must have been on his 20th gin and tonic when he said this……
No one can fuck up a bold sporting prediction quite like the English can.

Burns has one of THE most awkward looking stances I’ve ever seen. Looks completely unbalanced.
We had an ODI guy - Peter Someone, I think - who might have been an opener/wicket-keeper. He looked equally like all coaching manuals had escaped him.

Peter Ingram - even managed to squeak into the test team when he had a golden patch at FC level. No foot movement at all from memory. Not sure he was a keeper though.

from CricInfo
Meanwhile, Australia have confirmed an unchanged squad for the final three Tests with Cummins and Hazlewood expected to be back for Melbourne. -

Butler and Woakes still there at Dinner. Australia have two sessions to take four wickets.
Frustrating for Oz. Is the new ball due anytime soon ? ( I’m out and can’t watch )

Butler out Hit Wicket. Weird way to go after holding out for so long.
Only the 163rd time in test history apparently.

Third time at the Adelaide Oval - 1092 and 1929 the last times according to the channel 7 guys.

Anyway, thank fuck for that. Looking very poor from our blokes out there for a long period, with a lack of plan evident.
I'll take it. Bring back Cider for Neser and we'll be right.

Dude, it's Adelaide, under the sun it's a road.
There's a reason it's the designated pink ball test every summer.
This series is like the old shit day's where England turn up and get flogged through 5 games

@mariner4life but it wasn't exactly hooping around under lights either.
Mostly the bowling plan seemed to be shit. Not enough challenge just outside off stump from the pace bowlers, and Lyon inconsistent if a little unlucky
