This is sad honestly. After going 2-0 up I really thought we'd actually do it this time around
I've very little faith in our 4th Innings hopes... I hate to jinx it but we absolutely need a final Smithy 100 in England and Patty needs to rewind Edgbaston heroics
Cmon lads...
There are def some poms browsing this forum right now getting themselvse off over us Salty Aussies.
Friendly reminder: Joe Root has NEVER scored a hundred in Australia in 27 innings here... yikes.
That felt good. Now I'm ready to get bowled out for 180
We are ****ed.
Time for someone to stand up. I absolutely doubt it because we simply can never save games like this BUT... Please... someone show some fight.
They are literally playing with us hahaha. This is pathetic.
So I think we all know this Test is gone and onto the Oval... however... theres an opportunity here for a couple of our boys to stand up... show something, bat out the day & tomorrow. I've no faith that happens but I would love to see...
While I think Warner's contribution today surpassed most of our expectations (and all things considered, it's probably a pass grade).... God his overall career record really doesn't look great away from home:

They have Ben Stokes, to be fair...
At the risk of jinxing, I think this is a clear bat first pitch however with iffy weather the last few days England see their best chance to win the game by chasing. I think that makes sense. Pat said he wouldn't mind bowling but I call bluff, we'd be happy...
I mean... we literally showed no confidence in the kid, what was he to do.. He bowled only 7 in the 1st innings and he only got given one token over before lunch today before being asked to bowl with 30 runs remaining? That's laughable..
