Ashes 2021-22

The week off did Cummins some good

To be fair to England, they aren’t spoilt for choice with batting options, and Hameed at least looks like he has a better technique to survive than Burns. Even though another duck is the result…

Interesting logic for a guy who scored two very quick ducks in a row.

his technique and body language was shot to fuck from the moment he took guard. Hopeless.

Feet are nowhere. Hands too far in front. Get out of your crease, mate. This is Australia.

Burns has the sort of technique (mainly backlift) that, if you saw a kid in an opposition team bat like that, you’d just tell your kids to bowl at middle stump and soon he’ll miss a straight one…

…..but he did occupy the crease and get some runs. Hameed looked like a tail ender from ball one with his concrete feet.

Pretty silly argument in one sense, whoever is there is basically cannon fodder.

Crawley improves his average. Just

Bloody Hell Cummins is one decent bowler.

Looks a bit nice and friendly though. That should be a work on going forward.

Captain vs Captain. Best Bowler in the world vs the guy who’s had a bit of luck and somehow retained the title of best batsman.

This is what test cricket is all about.

[Tim]

This English team has provided maximum two sessions of entertainment with the bat. What a fucking dud.

If he was a Kiwi you guys would talk cricket in winter.

God damn I hope Root gets a ton today, and makes a game of it.

I know, he’d be the bowling version of KW. he’s a lovely bloke too.

I think it’s time someone else got ready to step up in case he fails which is inevitable

[MN5]

Scott Boland has come a long way after a pretty feral start to his life……

[Tim]

Game over. Root out.

[sparky]

Root gone. England are fucked.

Time for the Aussies to book the booze for a massive party with Urn in a couple of days time.

Curse of the Tim.

Nice six from Stokes. Lovely to see at test level.

[MN5]

Warney just about cumming in his pants on air about Greens potential……and he gets Stokes straight away.

Fuck you Warney ( you legend )

A real “meh” innings overall and England are in deep shit now.
