Starc warming up for days 4 & 5.

Top non verbal sledging I reckon.

England getting it the neck from the UK media:

 "After a first-innings capitulation for 185, Michael Vaughan said that “the only thing they’ve got right is to turn up on time”. No sooner did he make that remark than they contrived to turn up 30 minutes late. " -   Oliver Brown, Daily Telegraph

Well, fuck. This is the only time I've felt pity for a ranga. Stokes gone to something utterly unplayable after some nice shots.

[NTA]

Bairstow is fucked in the head

[NTA]

And Root is hit in the nuts again. Has he had kids?

That was shocking defence by him though. Bat and pad a mile apart, feet neither forward or back.
Bloody nice ball that may have got him anyway but he helped it.

Green drops a sitter.

[NTA]

Bairstow given. Reckon inside edge for the review

[NTA]

Nah outside the line

[NTA]

Oh that's fucking bullshit IMHO. Two "umpire's call" on the impact and wickets. Fuck me. Second ranga pity today.

OTOH, he played a fucking awful shot

Sorry if already has been asked.

Who is the English batting coach?

I meant to ask yesterday. It's a valid question.

[NTA]

Root undone by a decent delivery from Boland, but it was hardly threatening the pegs.

Here's the dirty issue:

[NTA]

Boland with 5. England have crumbled.

[NTA]

Fucking hell. England won't want to play the last 2 tests. Boland with 6.

1 wicket to retain the Ashes. Innings victory in play. Buttler to be stranded at the other end.

[Nevorian]

6 wickets for 7 runs by Boland - surely that puts him in the record books somewhere. Could be his one and only test also.

4 down for minus 59

Odds on a margin innings+ ?

Bump

[KiwiMurph]

Aussies brutally efficient. Well deserved Ashes winners.

English - what can you say - on track to be the worst English team to ever tour Australia?

[Nevorian]

Barmy Army must be writing up a few new tunes about their own players/team
