Joe Root and the best team on paper comment.

Well how to piss a 100 run lead away. Fantastic first secession then negated with a crapola second secession. That was just plain dumb cricket tactics.

The Pommy saltiness and outrage make the victory even more enjoyable. Poms choosing when they decide to play by the spirit of the game and when they don't, oh and just how fittingly poetic, that Stuart Broad is the on field mouth piece trying to spruik the cause. Broads feigned comments, come...

For those watching the game, is it: s**t batting by AUS Good bowling by SL Both. Or a tricky wicket. Be interested in your thoughts .

Slight correction no "b" in it. The blame = root , Joe Root.

Cameron Green what an effort 6 overs 3/21. Three top order batsmen and then the rot started. From a 22 year old....simply WOW. The English top order facing the Green onslaught.

You are being too kind.

And that a very good point MP as it's not always HOW many wickets did bowler X get, its pretty important to note "who he got out" and "at what point in the game' did that wicket fall.

Just for the laughs I would like us to pick Josh Inglis: He does well and scores a 50 + and then the Poms can enviously look on as the kid, that was born in Leeds and came to Australia 12 years ago, becomes the future Australian wicketkeeper / batsman ............... that the Poms are so lacking.

He would need one for protection from the English Press.

Starc just wastes so many balls. He really is a dumb bowler.

Patience....... grasshoppers.......patience. Very early days into his International Career and he is progressing slowly, but surely. Not too many more impressive 22 year olds playing in Australian Cricket. At this stage, he looks like being a permanent fixture in The National Team, for the...

Will be a very happy day for me when Wade finally gets the arse and is left out of ALL Australian squads. He has been a spent force for way too long now and its not as if the selectors don't have a multiple BETTER alternatives to replace him with. Used by date was 2018 Wade is well out of code.

Good to see a kid coming into the side that values his wicket, showed good poise and composure did Green. Innings like this will hasten his development. Pleasing sign that he can soak up pressure. As for Mr Burns .................. hope to never see him in an Australian side ever again, he has...

Plugger35 reading your post is really testing my imagination...... " Burns struggling to bat even more than usual" you say ..... scary thought. ;)

Strictly speaking no its not, but once you get into the Boys Club with in the cricketing circle its almost like a family. Call it the mates rates / inside running what ever but favouritism it most certainly is.

Well surprise surprise, just got home and checked the score. Wade who has no right being in a test test contributed just 8 runs. Whilst his opening partner ( one of the most out of form batsmen in Australian Cricket) also contributed just 8 runs. Langer and Hones are a pair of gooses if they...

Well done to the batters. Bowlers your turn now. Hell of a target to chase and if they manage the 185 needed then India will well and truly deserve the T20 WC crown.

Lie down, take your tablets :pill::pill::pill: and rest up on the couch. Silver Chain are on their way to check up on you to see if you need to be admitted to hospital. ;) To Answer your question......... Yes you would be the only one .......they have No Chance,thats not their style. Now...

Worse than that ...to para phrase Shane Warne .......Harris cant bat, cant field, cant bowl

Right at the minute Warner would love to have those figures.

I love the kids fighting spirit and his resolve. He just seems to be delighted and enthusiastic to be out on the field and seems to be a great team player , gives the impression that he wants to be involved and wanting the ball to come to him. Can bat. Can bowl. Handy in the field . Lot to...

Lyon been terribly disappointing since the first test. Just wont bowl the right line. Only bowled a couple further out side got a wicket with one and the other went trough everything, yet he persists bowling to straight. He is not doing his part to hold up his end and Paine has given him way...

Agree ...............he was a treat to watch, he was a true master of his craft. One of the very few Pakistan cricketers I liked as a kid. Make NO mistake he was one of the Greatest Pakistan Cricketers EVER. He was as mesmerising to watch as Warne in full flight as he had opposition batsmen...

Disagree we have seen more than enough to know that he is so woefully out of touch. This is highlighted and confirmed by his s**t catching in this series . Can’t remember him dropping so many catches and being caught in a poor position to attempt the catch. It’s a pretty true indicator that...

The collective sphincter muscles of the English cricket following public just became rather twitchy. Adult diaper sales are about to spike in the 🇬🇧. Excellent result. :thumbsu:

Starc and Khawaja............ how long does this insanity last. Neither player deserves their place in the team , yet the " protect our mates mentality " continues at the selection table. Two in form and fresher players have been introduced into the team Richardson and...

Riveting stuff ..... :( :rolleyes:
