Who'd have thought Raval might miss a straight one...

TBF it wasn't exactly straight

TBF it was Raval.

still behind the couch...heading to bed might be a much better option

I'm still amazed every time I see Fleming only scored 9 tons.

This is the fucking 1990's touring teams revisited.

Crikey, Rossco!

I've go to say - fuck being out there facing this!

@Chris-B express pace, it just works. And these cnts have control as well

Hoff broken. I think he did this in hot weather once before?

Snowy

Well this might make a slightly fairer contest. no Ferg, no Hazlewood.

Ouch. That is a tender spot

Big difference between them and Ferg is they're about a foot taller so they're getting more and steeper bounce. It's so much more dangerous.

It's quite amazing, how a sporting event that spans as much as 5 full days, can be so utterly riveting for periods like this.

I saw Hazlewood walking out and just thought “oh fuck”.

I don’t mean for anyone to get injured but as far as jinxes goes that worked.

Just quietly Stark is bloody scary too.

You cad

Tell you what, any prick who gets on these guys for getting out/not performing should give themself an uppercut. The phrase "putting your body on the line" is massively overused, especially in sports like basketball, but these guys are doing exactly that.

This is absolutely brutal stuff.

@voodoo brutal is the word

Kane's boundary felt like the first loose delivery of the innings

@canefan it’s really annoying how Starc consistently plays like a 1980s West Indian against us and like Heath Davis against anyone else
