Universal Love Cricket - Ashes 2025

Just when i think Green can't find another way to get himself out , he finds one .

 

[jhong]

Well done Smudge , you're a wierdo but a great of Australian cricket .

 

[jhong]

I'd say a good day for Australia , 130 ahead , 3 wickets left , England wasting 2 reviews on a tail ender( did a good job for the team) leaving them with none , 2 centurions and the Poms looking ragged by stumps . If we can get to a lead of 200 i reckon the Poms will cave .

He's really stupid.

Why tf are we persisting with Green? Webster is simply a better batsman and a pretty similar bowler. Webster has been pretty bloody good everytime he's got a game. Green looks more like a short format player. He just looks nervey at the crease. We should be playing a spinner as well. With the series over, it would have been a great opportunity to give Murphy a go and bring in a young batsman. But instead we go with 2 all rounders and play old man Kawaja.

Webster asking questions of the Aussie selectors as well as the English bowlers. Stokes off the ground already ,

 

[jhong]

Took a decent ball to get Smith caught behind.

 

[schmuttt]

Would love Webster to ton up but really needs to get a move on here.

 

[jhong]

Starc gone bowled . Can’t remember an English team this shit in the field .

 

[jhong]

Boland out . Was hoping for a bigger lead but unfortunately Webster has run out of partners. Lead of 183 .

 

[jhong]

Starc does it again. Crawley out .

Australian selectors: Webster didn’t make a ton, keep Green in the team.

The last time i remember us persisting with someone because of they have 'potential' we invested years into the Marsh brothers (although Mitch had a good late career resurgence). But it was years of, we have to get games into them because they're going to be champions

 

[jhong]

I don't think we have bowled particularly well so far .

 

[jhong]

Green , if your going to dive in front of Smith you have to take the catch . Not having a good series .

 

[jhong]

Was just about to post why they are persisting around the wicket and then Duckett chops on.

 

[jhong]

England riding their luck .

 

[jhong]

Luck ran out Root gone LBW .

 

[jhong]

Don’t think it’s doing Green any favours bowling him when there are other options. Not much enthusiasm in the field either .

 

[jhong]

Good knock from Bethell , Webster must wonder why he got on when the kid was on 99 . If the poms can set us a 200 target well who knows .

 

[jhong]

So many questions. Why didn’t Webster bowl spin as soon as he got the ball .

 

[jhong]

Who wants a bowl ? Anyone? Meanwhile the lead is slowly climbing.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Webster 70 not out and 3/37.

Must be about time to drop him.

 

[jhong]

C’mon Ricky , you know you want to say Marnus is bowling rubbish. Just say it Punter . Maybe we just don’t want to bat tonight

The Brad Hodge treatment.
