Ashes 2019

[NTA]

We're cooked.

1-1 coming up. Series alive.

The line is now shit. Paine needs to have a word to these fluffybunnies.

[Duluth]

They need to go back to Lyon

He just bowled a brilliant over. Game in the balance, England hoping these two gingas can bring them home

[Godder]

2 more wickets and Aussie are into the tail - Woakes is useful, but they would want to be within 40-50 before he comes in.

[NTA]

@Duluth and they did.

I understand the decision to take the new ball, but he just got Root and is good against the left hand bats, including Stokes.

[canefan]

Lyon all over Stokes

Not going to matter. We fuct.

England in the box seat at lunch. Aussies pace bowling gone to shit, and Lyon will probably need to drag them home if they're to win.

I'm going to bed

England 238 -4 at lunch. Needing 121 runs to win.

More twist and turns to come in this one I suspect.

This crowd is fucking great

Young and noisy crowd. Probably helps that there is a Rock festival also going in Leeds this weekend........

Exciting test match finishes are few and far between, but when they do come around and there is a noisy crowd and half decent commentary, there’s few sporting contests that match it.

What I’d like to see - these two score another 50 together and then OZ take a wicket. Then another 20-30 runs and OZ take a couple of quick ones.

Squeaky bum time with 3 tail enders to get and 40-50 runs to win.

Bairstow given out caught behind off Hazelwood almost straight after lunch. But a successful review to the delight of the crowd.

[ACT Crusader]

Then a half chance that goes through slip for 4.

Now Bairstow swipes at a wide one and caught. Poor

As loose as a goose.

[sparky]

Tight finish coming. My guess is England will end up about 15-20 runs short.

Lyons is going to put the remaining England batsmen under a lot of pressure on a Day Four pitch.

[canefan]

Stokes is key here. I for one am not ready to see England win at sports, cricket and rugby least of all

[canefan]

Australia being Australian right now. Brilliant reply straight after lunch, 100 runs might as be 300 now. Only 3 wickets needed to keep the ashes

[sparky]

Three quick wickets. Stokes is running out of partners. Australia have regroup ed brilliantly since lunch.

Nice reverse jinx mate. Either that or

Mid-session Drinks. England 277-7. 82 needed to win.
