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

[Daka]

Shame the breakthrough came 50-60 runs too late.

 

[HitTheNailOnTheHead]

Desperately hoping for another dud root.

 

[Pistol Night]

Yep Root has never played in a winning test in Australia

Crazy stat. Pity it'll only be that way for another hour

 

[two blue tiger]

This bloke Bethell has a Duckett-like look to him. Only use the edges of his bat.

EDIT : swing and hope.

 

[PiCkLeJuiCe]

Why don't they just draw three marks on the crease so batsmen can stop with this ridiculous ritual of having marking their guard.

 

[beatnik]

Pitch looks like it’s flattened out plus England have rub of the green at the moment…that’s Test cricket, will take a mighty effort from Aussies from here!

[Jimthegreat]

Like seriously...**** off! Beat the bat and again no touch.

 

[satty]

Sadly this will be our last best chance. Will go to shit when nesser and Richardson come back on.

 

[Jeremy Jordan]

This Bethell is trying to get out.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The ball was so good even the ump liked it

 

[Gough]

Yep Root has never played in a winning test in Australia

Their last win here was Ussie's debut Test.

Desperately hoping for another dud root.

Can only get away with saying that for a few weeks every 2 years or so.

 

[k31th]

wouldn't have been nice if he spooned it to mid-off instead of that.

 

[barrackers]

Well batted Zac. Patient but aggressive when warranted. Good player to watch


As for Duckett, well watching him is about as much fun as watching a poker machine. Completely random, a score here and there, but ultimately a losing proposition.

Right approach by Crawley if they’re intent on bazball, very much rode his luck when aggression early, but settled once the field had dispersed

 

[Bedi]

I keep on banging on about the Deano comparison but that was him all over

 

[Pistol Night]

This Bethell is trying to get out.

Cant he just smash his stumps with his bat or something to help us out here

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Could play an Australian v England BBL match
Plenty of good English players in the BBL

Nah, they've got golf to play.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Doesn't go to hand again.

 

[Chuckie357]

Someone without a beer gut would’ve caught that

 

[jb04]

Slug or Cumdog would have pouched that.

 

[FreoRicci]

Hey Vaughan. **** the Barmy Army.

Why the **** is an Englishman the lead commentator.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

He was very reluctant too

I was yelling at him from the couch. He was so slow to give it out.

 

[Neese]

oh Bethell is brave. Please.
Isa will be painful.
I hate happy Poms

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Sadly England will lose the T20. 56 runs short.

Try and be more inclusive please
