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

[Ohitsthatguy]

Who the **** cares about Boxing Day, we have a test and series to win now

 

[Mister B]

Bloody hell, chill out. I think you might be forgetting the 1 in the 168 England need to win.

There were so many things that could have been done in that first session. More fielders under the nose of the batsman v Lyon. Putting Boland on for an over or two seeing as clearly both front line quicks are right to go. Not bowling shit half trackers for an hour and trying to pitch it up for a couple of overs. It was ****ing shit tactics.

 

[The King!]

Maybe they weren't sure if he'll get through a spell

Good point

 

[GreekLunatic]

One wicket goes down they will fold

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I'd agree with you if England were 6-400. But they're not.

That's true but if these 2 can get it under 100 they are a chance with Lyon gone.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Any threat of putting it further up the ****ing pitch?

 

[SSwans2011]

Andrew McDonald should be sacked for his tactics

They've only won just about everything you can win in international cricket since he took over as coach, so yeah he probably deserves to be sacked.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Confident Cummins will step up

 

[Moonwatcher]

Does the Prime Minister give knighthoods?

Its a tough audience

 

[aabp1978]

If they get to lunch without losing a wicket we are in serious trouble

 

[Westend]

Shot

 

[Cat Pummins]

Would you like that, or more Mark Howard?

Don't get me started on Howieeee..

 

[Jack Mundy]

Who the **** cares about Boxing Day, we have a test and series to win now

It's all connected

 

[Bucking Beads]

Smith has looked pretty good. They look well in charge here.

 

[Daka]

So, are we losing or winning this Test? hasn't been a good start today.

 

[Mister B]

So why the **** was Boland held back

Either he's injured or the captain is a complete ****ing idiot.

 

[Pure_Ownage]

Smith could either get out in a minute or win this for them.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Does the Prime Minister give knighthoods?

Other than a brief period under the Abbott government, theres been no Australian knighthoods awarded since 1986

 

[Peter Bixley]

Losing our last 6 for 38 didn't help.

 

[Young Redleg]

There's just something about this game that has had bed shitting written all over it. Can't put my finger on it.

 

[Coasters7]

Smith has looked pretty good. They look well in charge here.

He looked like getting out every ball early on. Has settled now but should have been out.

 

[Ludovico]

Got to admit I am not feeling confident about this. We seem flat and not switched on.

*Hoping this operates as a reverse psych and we get a wicket straight away.

 

[JuniorWatch]

That is a wild shot for this stage of the game.
Bazball not dead?

 

[Neese]

Nice 50
