Lol Warnie noone else like him.

Don't know if I can stand to watch the Warnie tele movie. Loved him but I can't see how it will possibly do him justice. No doubt they'll just sensationalize his offfield stuff without any nuance.

Wasn't much nuance about Warnie, What you saw was what you got.

True, but it was more the perception of him I was talking about. Most of my family didn't like him. Thought he was arrogant and a bit of an arseh*le with his womanizing and of field antics. I had plenty of arguments defending him to my dad lol.
He did a lot of good things outside of cricket too with charities and he seemed like a genuine nice guy although he didn't always come accross that way. He was unapologetically who he was but I don't think a lot of people understood him and took him at face value as an arrogant loud mouth when he was much more then that.

If he was ever looked on in a negative way he could always blame Steve Waugh or his Mum

Surely not

Marsh in for Starc?

Or are Australia just playing funny buggers

Love Mitch but he shouldn’t be playing test cricket and it annoys me how much our fans go after him as well

 

[Keys]

Well played Mitch

Hazlewood for Starc? Oh well, as long as big boy Boland keeps his spot.

As long as Hazlewood is fit enough, then I am actually quite OK with that unexpected change.

Starc is like the Pakistan Team ..........you never know which one is going to turn up on any day..... the one who bowls well or the pie chucker.

When on song he is a match winner but when not then he can bleed runs.

Early doors but there doesn’t look to be much in this pitch for the bowlers

Good toss for the poms to win

Castore uniforms are triggering me already.

Yep

The pitch is a belter.

 

[Biggie]

This looks a lacklustre batting pitch

 

[DanWCE]

Hey everyone how's the pitch?

Hey everyone how's the pitch?

Drinks England cruising through the first hour. The pitch is very flat. Has a Rawalpindi feel rather than Edgbaston. It's a battle of containment for Australia

Four right arm seamers may be overkill, surprised Starc was left out.

No swing or seam movement - Starc would have been a real risk in this pitch with his inability to maintain anything remotely like a consistent line and length

May be so, but none of these blokes have that extra pace or toe crusher Starc has. Not as if any of the paceman are currently tying up an end either, run rate near five.
