Test The Ashes Fourth Test December 26-30 1000hrs @ The MCG

[Costanza_]

England will be similarly rubbish with the bat

Pressure off a bit now that the series is gone, and with a (maybe) difficult pitch they will have a license to come out and go hard. Reckon this will be the innings they finally click.

 

[Doggy]

It's either a dreadful pitch or Josh Tongue is the greatest ashes bowler of all time? The person responsible for preparing this pitch should be sacked !

He's a potato so I guess there is your answer

 

[Membling]

Could be Perth MKII at this rate

 

[dogs105]

Are they sensible and have an early Tea, or 10 minute break, 1 over then a tea break?

 

[cats_09]

He looked the best of all our batsmen today. Wont hear much about that though.

Nesser?

 

[dogs105]

well, 152... interesting number

That's plenty...

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Webster thinking how is Green pick ahead of me

They only "click" when it doesn't matter

 

[SSwans2011]

Let's hope it's one of those 17 wickets in a day days.

20 wicket day. I won't accept any less or any more.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Typical of the Australian cricket side, drink their own bathwater and can't back it up once the series is won.

Well, at least they have won the series. Something the Poms haven't managed for a decade.

 

[Coasters7]

He made 17, spin it anyway you want he once again failed with the bat.

So drop him? When guys like Weatherald and Marnus have more glaring issues and less of a future?

 

[Membling]

Better than before the series is decided

A game of would you rather be moral ashes victors or actual ashes victors

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Hoping the poms make 800 runs now to keep 80,000 off the golf courses for 3 more days at least.

The pitch has a bit in it. But its not a bad pitch. Some bad batting, decent bowling, and catches held.
Possibly 100 short of a reasonable score on a seaming, but quite playable, pitch.

But England are England, so Australia could get a first innings lead of 60 yet.

Clearly needs some nudes of the selectors

 

[OhhhhhCyril]

Well.. this is ****ing horseshit.

 

[cats_09]

It’s a partnership. You see your partner stop at the other end then just run straight through?

It was always going to be a tight run

Once Green called yes, Nesser did the right thing in honouring the call by running, but once Green hesitated he needed to make it really clear with a verbal NO

The worse thing would have been for both guys to be ball watching

 

[Sonny Hayes]

So drop him? When guys like Weatherald and Marnus have more glaring issues and less of a future?

Weatherald has played 3 tests and made a 70, yet I still think he should be under pressure.

Green has played over 30 and offered very little

 

[Donakebab]

Sniffing their own farts way too hard with all the Ronball nonsense.

 

[Westend]

still great bowling conditions need at least 5 wickets by the end of today I reckon

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Look at that city. Look at the ground

 

[TasSixer]

I can't think of a good tongue sexual innuendo joke.

 

[largebus]

Piss poor but ill reserve judgement until england bat. Whatever happens the urn is ours and Bazball is dead

 

[dogs105]

So drop him? When guys like Weatherald and Marnus have more glaring issues and less of a future?

Not much future if he doesn't stop the stupidity. Certainly has talent.

 

[Outtatym]

Nesser?

He's a bowler. Doesn't count
