Oh dear Scotty...

 

[Bedi]

That was a good hour for England.

 

[peternorth]

Well that was a disappointing hour and a bit.

 

[ams4crows]

Poor Webster, left stranded

 

[Buzz Hawk]

I'd love these commentators to describe this FoxRay system again because I don't think I quite understand it yet....

Personally I think it’s useless and doesn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know.
So player X rocks onto the front foot when playing a shot and player Y rocks onto the back foot.
Stunning insight there.

 

[grumbleguts]

Geeze Boland that wasn't pretty.

 

[jb04]

Slug unbeaten!

 

[Bucking Beads]

Bummer for Webster. He looked like he was doing it easy.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

FFS Scotty innocuous ball made it look like it turned a mile

 

[Young Redleg]

Ffs he only had two balls left off Will Jacks

 

[ptrg]

Websters missed ton is solely on fk'n Green taking his rightful spotin the order

 

[Anzacpaul]

Lets rip through em now.

3 for by lunch.

 

[010203]

Well played Big Beau.

 

[manureid]

Wishing we had a front line spinner at this stage.

 

[MJG14]

Webster again looking more assured as a Test batsman than Green. I feel much more comfortable when he is batting.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Nice red inker for the big slug.

 

[Peter Bixley]

Poor Webster, left stranded

Boosts his average, I suppose.

 

[lionbear]

I remember some campaigner saying I was wrong for suggesting Webster play over Inglis. Would love him to pop up and debate that one again.

Can't have Golden Boy Green being shown up before the last test of the series and a long enough break that all will be forgotten by the selectors the next time they pull on the bagy green.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Don’t think Boland was quite set. Looked up very late when Jacks was almost about to bowl.

 

[Jimthegreat]

Poor Webster, left stranded

If they put him in Green's spot, one further up the order, he likely gets 100.

The transfer of torment.

The wrist-snap of wreckage.

 

[sherb]

I guess if you wanted anyone to bat with the tail and put on good runs, it would have been Beau. He's done it on a number of occasions with Tassie.

He still needed the support of the tail though - looking at you Mitch and Scotty for letting him down.

 

[Bedi]

When Stokes tried to line up a 12km run in the Noosa national park everyone snubbed it because they were reportedly being worried about being able to keep up with him, so that might explain his reluctance to continue trying??



Might want to do some extra investigating into the whole Noosa trip.

Issue was that he was blind drunk and it was 3am!

 

[Young Redleg]

I just realised that Head and Smith have made up 9 of our last 10 centuries at home. Kinda insane.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Webster should never have been dropped.
