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

[SC_Power]

109 overs
30 wickets (SR 22!)
394 runs (3.7 rpo)

Based on a full 90 over day, we’re halfway through the first session day 2

Scarily awful

 

[Topkent]

depends if it stays like that all Test or if it gets hard to bat on as the game progresses, you want ebbs and flows throughout the 5 days not bowlers dominate the whole game or the batsmen dominate

Nah that's a shit wicket means they games won at the coin toss

 

[Bunk Moreland]

175… id rather be us

 

[freo_leo29]

damn

 

[Kipz]

I mean..

 

[Lets Roar like '44]

Smith got the not out he wanted

 

[Southerntakeover]

Cause you've clearly given up as a coping mechanism

Feels like you're projecting.

I'm not coping, it's not that big a deal. We've won the series, I'm not that bothered by what happened in this game between our C line up and their team.

Just think we lost this one. Brace yourself for a week or so of inane pommy git singing and backslapping.

 

[Westy2487]

Does anyone else think the boys are throwing the match because they want to get on the beers.

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

175 is a lot of runs on this pitch…

 

[pebblesofsand]

Its 4 mill based on a 45 dollar ticket

Green can pay it from loose change from the back of his couch.

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

What time have the Aussie booked the first tee at Royal Melbourne tomorrow?

 

[jb04]

Look England got boos yesterday but protecting the #11 is the right thing to do Smiffy.

 

[Snarls Barkley]

I think he probably has to take those singles. Not a great position for Smith to be in. Probably would have liked him to be looking for boundaries more but was let down by his teammates. A lot of batting came after him and he only got to face 39 balls

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Protect that average Steve. Nice.

 

[cats_09]

As soon as Richardson had hit that ball, Smith started running off

 

[Bill Crouse]

Richardson did ok for a #11, but what was Smith thinking taking a single on the first ball for like 3 overs in a row?

 

[offtherails9]

It's a ****ing joke that it's gonna end today but the next couple hours are gonna be awesome to watch

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Would rather Richardson left that to Smith

 

[rdhopkins2]

The batting has just been dumb today.

 

[Alfonz]

The pitch is difficult, but I don't think it is anywhere near as bad as the scores suggest. Pathetic batting for the most part.

Reckon a couple of England batters will fire and they'll chase it down with ease.

 

[Crankyhawk]

Unfortunately not. Will not be able to watch on my phone either.
Sweet penalty rates and I need to keep my job

You won’t need to game will end today

 

[Daka]

Smith got the not out he wanted

I agree Smith needed to take responsibility and take the strike.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Green needs 2-3 seasons away from the international team

 

[Topkent]

That was so stupid by Smith why the **** wouldn't you farm the strike

 

[Jimthegreat]

Green batted ok given the pitch but but his method dismissal again is why i want him dropped for Webster.
