Ashes 2015, Third Test - England v Australia - Day 1 - Edgbaston Stadium, Birmingham

[GotTheGoodes]

Looked out... Time for some big hitting if we can manage it.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

I just went for a quick look but it has actually been a few years since we have gone **** up this epically. I gave up after 2013.

Cricinfo just showed a stat 7 down for less than 100 8 times since 2010.

That's a lot.

 

[Hamez]

That's twice now Rogers has gone out next ball after a sight screen delay.

 

[Smeg Head]

No, plumb.

Fair play Broad then.

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Great...the sun looks to have come out just as we're about to be bowled out.

 

[big bootaaaaah]

We need Haddin and Watson

 

[Spitta09]

So what number is Agar in at?

How bout watson we could use a 20 or 30 at this point

 

[Torz]

What's the chances that old man Lyth scores on this deck, after failing on the flat ones? Would sum up our day.

 

[Hardhat11]

I still think declare now

 

[sherb]

Ah well, at least we'll get a good ball at them today while there are still some overhead conditions around

I really, really hope our bowlers are smart enough to take advantage of the conditions.

 

[GotTheGoodes]

Now they're playing in bright sun... FFS.

 

[Ready To Rumble]

These two can hang around. History says this one is over. But all good investors know that tge past does not dictate the future.

That would be the moment it goes from sad to farcical

[big bootaaaaah]

That swung a mile

 

[Torz]

Hazlewood passes half our batting lineup with one strike.

 

[Doodlesweaver]

Bout the only team that can come and out and bowl brilliantly aftet such a pile of s**t from their batsmen is Pakistan.

Because they think it's normal.

 

[BarryMorgan]

These two can hang around. History says this one is over. But all good investors know that tge past does not dictate the future.

And that a ship is safe in the harbour?

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Give Anderson come credit - his ability to swing the ball away from the lefty is a real skill

 

[ChampRevesby]

Bout the only team that can come and out and bowl brilliantly aftet such a pile of s**t from their batsmen is Pakistan.

Because they think it's normal.

I laughed harder than I should have.

 

[ChampRevesby]

Nothing wrong with this deck. England will play this pitch as it should be played.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Look at those shadows .... Nice and dArk.. Meaning the sun is shining..

Not a great time to be rolled and have them go in

 

[Ready To Rumble]

181 to go

 

[W.C. Fry]
