this ump makes joel wilson look like simon taufel

 

[LukeParkerno1]

We have Trent Copeland talking batting technique lol

Far out I’ve seen it all

 

[philreich]

Carey needs 29 more runs, to become the new record holder for an Australian keeper in a single Test.

Looking at Stokes bowling now, you need to ask the question. Why didn't Stokes bowl yesterday? It seems bizarre now seeing him bowl quicker than I've seen him bowl before.

100% agree.
Ashes were on the line yesterday.

The fact he didn't even have a crack at bowling is baffling.

Yeah he went off for a few overs after bumping his head, but that was already deep into our innings when it happened.

If he wasn't bowling today I could accept it, but the fact he's out there bowling quick and over after over today makes no sense.

"he was tired from batting" is an absolute pathetic excuse

 

[Scorpus]

Imagine the score if the umpire didn't wrongly get Weatherald out for a ball that pitched outside leg

[LukeParkerno1]

To be fair, stokes had to do a lot of lifting. He has essentially been the only reliable English player this series.He was probably drained from the batting in the first innings.

Exactly, seen plenty of bowlers come off the short run over the years when needed.

First we mozzed Head then we did it to Carey lol

Why?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

They’d want to get to 500 at least

 

[Neese]

Ugh dammit. Stokes finally got a wicket.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

good knock but soft dismissal

 

[philreich]

**** you mate...

Whoops.....

 

[Proeagle]

Lets not throw this away. I still want a lot more runs to feel safe. I dont care about records. Different pitch, different playing styles these days. Still a great batting wicket.

 

[dogs105]

That was a philreich wicket f ark!!!!!!

Yeah. Bloody hell.

 

[peternorth]

okay set small goals here. 350 then 375

 

[NetworkNerd]

Not enough runs on the board imo. England will back themselves chasing 550

 

[ptrg]

Right on que, Stokes gets a wicket.

Again, why wasn't this done yesterday?

If it was India or Pakistan, we'd be asking questions..

 

[Crankyhawk]

yeah we aren't going to declare now, it will just be when we get bowled out

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Ugh dammit. Stokes finally got a wicket.

Deserved one this morning

Better than Carse and his fluke wickets
