Test The Ashes Fifth Test January 4-8 1000hrs @ The SCG

[Nuggetz]

Aus already at 500, I kinda want to see them score 1000

 

[Sea fog]

Green must be ****ing kicking himself

Think Labu too. Most batsmen have got themselves out on this deck.

 

[Pistol Night]

Green must be ****ing kicking himself

He’d probably miss and kick Marnus

 

[Nuggetz]

Stat just appeared revealing that England has dropped 35 catches in its past 10 tests. Bowlers have to work harder, get frustrated and catches win matches. Do they work hard on their fielding?

That's worse than Pakistan

 

[passmark]

This is a great day’s play for us.

Plenty of runs, some shit bowling and our quicks have had a full days rest.

Tomorrow could be fun.

Every run we make will demoralise them further

 

[philreich]

Good to see Stokes is saving Potts for tomorrow

The Poms might still be bowling after lunch at this rate.

 

[Nuggetz]

He’d probably miss and kick Marnus

Then stokes would spear tackle

 

[MarcMaverick]

Shut up shop now.

Until tea

Their general fielding capability is horseshit. Even if you take the officially dropped stuff, the amount of potential opportunities that have been lost from not running hard enough, and just basic fielding skills has cost them plenty.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Has duckett dropped the most catches this series

 

[Plugger35]

England throwing away wickets and a bigger first innings total is coming back to bite them now, they should've scored 500 too.

 

[Pistol Night]

Gee the intent from the Slug is refreshing

 

[brutus76]

Dear Cam Green

SEE BEAU WEBSTER?

This is how you build an innings and just "hang about" = NO STUPID BRAINFARTS

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

I do understand why we went with Green and I probably would have as well but gee poor old Webster deserved a run.

TBH he's come in at a good time. Plenty of easy runs to be had and there not just focusing on good line and length plus the spinners are bowling. Been the easiest 30 odd runs he would make I reckon so far.

He should have been in over Inglis for Brisbane. Especially because he was batting 7 not 5

Although his run out of Stokes was a top 5 most important moment of this ashes

 

[Jimthegreat]

Webster's passed Green.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

England get bowled out on this road in the second innings, they all should taken out the back and get a good whipping, especially as Australia hasn’t got a specialist spinner

 

[Joffaboy]

Why does Fox Footy suck off the Barmy Army so much, just braindead football hooligans who sign about themselves. They spoil the summer.

 

[mike14]

I wonder if there's ever been a study done on skin cancer rates of the barmy army compared to other British travellers

 

[ams4crows]

Well Webster has made more than Green.....

They let their fielding coach (Paul Collingwood) go before the tour started - which was at the behest of McCullum.

Loved the big break on fox, think it might be youtube too

 

[grumbleguts]

I wonder where this ranks in terms of all-time worst bowling performances by a bowler in Australia by Potts here?

Imran Tahir 0/260 is pretty bad.

Tahir's was an entire match. The thing with Murali is he conceded 224 in a single innings. But Tahir's takes the cake as the worst bowling economy rate for 20+ overs of all time.

His 0/180 in the first innings was off 23 overs at 7.82 rpo Poor bastard.
