You guys are kidding yourselves

I know right? It's Aussie's game to lose

What is the fascination with Bracewell? I just don't see the attraction. Bloody journeyman at best

[MN5]

If this thread doesn’t get @Virgil out of hibernation nothing will

[Donsteppa]

Without M. Bracewell we'd have lost both an historic first game and an historic first series to Ireland in 2022 in cricket as well as in rugby... I think some of you are channeling your appreciation for D. Bracewell for this one

[KiwiMurph]

3 overs of Bracewell might be enough

Yep, to be fair I'd be bowling Neesham at this stage instead of a second spinner, but Bracewell's still not a bad selection

And Lochie nearly gets an inside edge onto the stumps, that instead scuttles away for four.

[canefan]

I can't relax right now. These two look far too comfortable. Bring Boult on to try and finish these guys off. This is starting to feel like the English tour again

[MajorStokes]

Completely not joking I still have Oz as favourites heres. And have just bet accordingly.

[Donsteppa]

Don't think this pitch will suit Santner as much either. Neesham first, maybe, maybe even D Mitchell for pace that may not quite kick on on this pitch.

[canefan]

We've missed our chance. We are going to lose this game. Fucken BCs. The RR is under 5. If we don't get these next 2 or 3 out soon it's going to be over for us

[Donsteppa]

Just need one of those from the Neesh to pop up to a short mid wicket or cover.

I've upvoted for agreement ... but booooo

[canefan]

Kane has lost it. Far too timid. These two are taking the game away from us. And we've helped them do it

[booboo]

Goddamn fuck it. Do I have to go to bed?

A man has to do ...

[canefan]

Mitch is about as threatening as a Teddy bear

[canefan]

We are leaking runs goddammit. It's falling apart

[No Quarter]

We've waited far too long to give Boult another crack

[booboo]

Fuck this. Am off to bed.

Kane's tactics have been poor. Did he forget we are defending a low score? At last Boult is back into the attack and almost gets a wicket first ball

[Donsteppa]

Hard to blame too much on Kane’s bowling choices, given only his opening bowlers have fronted with the ball tonight.
