Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval

They looked at sea against Boland just before lunch - surely he should have been straight back on after lunch

His mum said he can't bowl for 30 mins after lunch or he might get a stitch.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Gotta admit, bloody exciting being here for this.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Want that wicket now.

 

[satty]

Think it is time to hit the panic button.

Edit- never doubted them

 

[southern_crusher]

Well look at that Boland has them in all sorts already, Who would of thought

Got Starc with a tail and a 10 over old rock. **** it lets bowl a part time spinner

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Seems like the bed wetters are right

 

[Westend]

just leave boland on this end and rotate the quicks the other end

 

[SC_Power]

Cameron Green is in the side for moments like this. Time has come now to repay the selectors faith

Well, he’s as good as Ben Stokes so ….

England did lose a Test by 1 run earlier in the Bazball era against New Zealand in 2023.

 

[gillon]

I love Pat but his captaincy could well produce two of the biggest test cricket chokes this century if we let them win this. Nevermind, I just remembered Headingly was Paine

 

[Peter Bixley]

Pitch just starting to misbehave?

 

[philreich]

Geez this is getting tight!!!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Not that hard. This looked a pitch we needed 500 plus on

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

As good as Carey has been up to the stumps. Hope to god we don't find the a thick edge and he doesn't catch it.

 

[TigerCraig]

Are we allowed to wet the bed yet?

 

[Pistol Night]

Pitch just starting to misbehave?

Time to bring on Austin Powers from the Shagwell End

 

[Pistol Night]

Are we allowed to wet the bed yet?

Of course. Just claim you were really sweaty

 

[Cyber_punk]

Is it all that surprising that this is even a contest now? Historically Australia in all forms of the game have blown record breaking leads.

Also, as a North supporter who saw my team give up a 69 point lead once you learn to never write off a oppo and records are there to be broken so my natural pessimism gets reinforced by shit like this.

 

[aabp1978]

We are gone

 

[010203]

Under 100 now....

 

[Plugger35]

England needing less than a hundred runs to win, this could end up being close.

 

[Proeagle]

I feared this when we threw away our wickets yesterday. We can still win but my money is now on England on this flat wicket and no Lyon.

 

[Speck]

This just has to be Boland tying up one end with Cummins and Starc from the other. Green for 3 overs to relieve Boland after 8 over spells.

Not the time for part time spinners. Not the time to consider Boxing Day. Must must must win this.

 

[matty lloyd the champ]

Inglis and Green should both be dropped regardless of the result.
