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

[The Falcon Strike]

Bowling has been solid, even good.

But the batting has been tripe

 

[Ready To Rumble]

181 to go

 

[big bootaaaaah]

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

Lol something tells me they'll be banging em in short and England will get a quick 200/0 of top edge boundaries and pull shots before they tighten it up 100 runs too late.

Bowling has been average.

Dismissals have been deplorable.

 

[Hardhat11]

Oh, you aren't joking?

No I'm not

I would have declared at seven down .....get them in

 

[Cory]

Pathetic by our batsmen.

 

[ChampRevesby]

Oh wait lets listen to the Oracle Ian Healy. Please tell us how you changed Englands fortunes.

Stick to the Adam Goodes thread on the main board.

Think we are looking ar a 3 day test. Win or lose.

Clarke made a shitful shitful call to bat first. He was relying on Smith, Warner & Rogers to save the day knwoign full well his form is gone and thsoe around him are largely untested against a team on their home deck in perfect swinging conditions... Seriously Clarkey. WTF!?!

Lol. It's not moving at 45 degree angles.

 

[Bareth Garry]

We need to clone Rogers.

Guaranteed 50s at least.

 

[boondy]

Hazlewood passes half our batting lineup with one strike.

He did at the time

 

[Cory]

Declare ffs

Ponting bowled in 2005. Right or wrong?

 

[Hardhat11]

We have gone the penthouse shagging the hotties .....

TO some drunk in the street stealing food from rubbish bins

THATS CRICKET

 

[Cory]

This is pointless

 

[ChampRevesby]

M Marsh simulating todays batting effort.

Haha the hindsight heroes are out in full flight.

Fact is, our batting has let us down. Bowling conditions have been good but we should have fought through. Will have to bowl well.
