Inglis with 6 in the 'A' match not doing himself any favours.

Carey doing Inglis favours with 12 in the big show.

Didn't Green get knocked over in Shield cricket recently leaving a ball?

At least twice this year.

They've gone with Carey as keeper.
Inglis is no chance now.

I always found it peferable to play at balls that were on my stumps.

 

[FKASC]

This Australian tail will add at least 100 odd runs

Dazzler9 confirmed to not be Glenn Maxwell

Overrate so slow it must be trapped by a black hole.

Leach to Head, 5 runs, this sums up the last half hour or so for England. On a length, driven to Stokes at mid-off and they take him on. It bounces up awkwardly and flies away past Buttler, away for four overthrows. That won't help Leach's figures...

England doing all the rights things for Australia.

Head with the T20 SR. BBL fixture has started early today.

 

[darksquare]

Travis Head with an outstanding audible obscenity after a missed cut shot. Awkward silence from commentators.

 

[Biggie]

Come on Head

 

[Truckosaurus]

A top century after a minor middle order collapse, well done Head.

 

[DanWCE]

Come on Head

[Goroyals22]

Certainly answered the question today..

In defence of Wood there, any ball that hits Travis is technically contact to the Head.

 

[Mulldogg]

I love a good reverse mozz…

Well batted Trav.

 

[WCE_phil]

Superb innings with intent by Head. A century in a session is not only rare but to do it after Australia go from a period of dominance to losing 4/36 is even more outstanding. Hopefully a few quick runs in the morning and even if England were to score 400 in the third innings Australia would be chasing a max of 150 in a day and a bit.

 

[Truckosaurus]

Good thing the Strikers had a great power play.

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

So who replaces Harris as an opener barring a miracle second innings century?

2nd innings ?

 

[The Passenger]

Nice contribution from Warner and we didn't get put through his cringey century celebration leap. Wins all round there!

Gonna dig up the record for being bowled out for under 200 the most times in a single series. This English batting line-up will give it a shake I reckon.

EDIT: The record is 9 from a six test series (Australia v England 78/79). From a five test series the record stands at 8 having occurred three times - England in the Windies 85/86, NZ in England 58 and England in South Africa 1905/06. I've predicted England for seven sub 200 totals.
