Test The Ashes Second Test December 4-8 1430hrs @ The Gabba

[Cold Sober]

We don't wanna be batting tonight.

 

[MarcMaverick]

Jacks Root sounds a bit dodgy.

 

[dumb]

still a lot of batting to come in the sheds

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Could Stokes declare on Root to bowl under lights? Ultimate revenge for running him out!

Stokes did give him one dirty look.

 

[CakeEater]

Jacks Root sounds a bit dodgy.

Yeah but not out of place in Qld

 

[MarcMaverick]

We don't wanna be batting tonight.

But then we won't get to see Stevenarine Chandersmith.

 

[DaRick]

pretty good win rate, no doubt. maybe he gets the best out of his players too. but as a tactician, lacking. of course it's always hard to be sure some of the tactics aren't from above the captain given we see similar moves onfield when cummins is leading.

Tactically, he was excellent in SL and generally good in Perth.

He wasn't very good during his 2014-2018 stint, though.

 

[Gethelred]

Dangerous, Joe.

 

[Around the Wicket]

Stokes did give him one dirty look.

Then realised he was in the wrong and gave Root words of encouragement and couple taps on the back

 

[satty]

Bring back starc?

 

[MarcMaverick]

18 away Rooty.

1. It was Stokes fault

2. They never do this

 

[Kapow!!!]

2. They never do this

Unless their name is Boycott and Botham is at the other end

 

[Gethelred]

Doggett looking very threatening.

Looks kind of like Stuart Clark as he approaches the crease.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Zing stumps at night are glorious

Best cricket invention since the box

 

[MarcMaverick]

Those Wespac Ads are dreadful.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Honestly never again Doggett please

Even last test every wicket was a dead set half tracker

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Duggett looking very threatening.

Looks kind of like Stuart Clark as he approaches the crease.

He's got a very easy action
Strange that he's had so many injuries over his career

 

[Around the Wicket]

Going at 2 since dinner break

 

[satty]

Boland needs to hit jacks with one that straightens .

 

[JimmyBC]

So does Root doing well playing a trad test innings in terms of balls faced fly in the face of bAzBaLl ?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

One more from these bowlers
Then Starc to clean up the last 3

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Boland needs to hit jacks with one that straightens .

Right in the middle stump ideally

 

[MC Bad Genius]

I really liked seeing that. I actually think that that part of the Bazball ethos is fantastic.

Century rooted now for Joe? Running out of partners!
