Not good news for the Aussies.

The sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky at Leeds and heading for 27 degrees. Great day for batting.

Collingwood, North and Storm better win then.

I watched till stumps (#cockeyedagain) and that sums it up well Hoj. 50% of the balls were virtually unplayable due to the conditions. We had luck along the way too with so many deliveries barely missing the edge.

Is that something to do with the Dukes balls?

Dukes balls seam a lot, pitches have more life in them and overhead conditions made it move in the air.

When there is cloud cover it swings like a mother****er When the sun's out, not so much.

Thought so. Saves the need for bottle caps and minties I s'pose.

And a passport for Barbadians !

Jason Roy's papers surely have just been stamped.

Come on boys big first session.

 

[Hojuman]

Bye-bye Joe

 

[SpiderBurton22]

At least Root is improving, he lasted 2 balls this time.

 

[El Triggso]

Regulation height, but jeepers, that snick from Root absolutely flew.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Haha. Great bowling, and if Warner is confident again, anything is possible.

 

[pupstar]

You beauty put the foot on the throat now.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Joel Wilson with another shocker.

 

[Hojuman]

Pressure, pressure, pressure boys

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Hazelwood and Cummins are building huge pressure here. Every ball is on song!

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Denley is nervous!!!

 

[El Triggso]

Denly better get his Mum to take a photo NOW while he is still an England batsman.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

What an over from Cummins! No wickets but bloody hell he was just about unplayable

 

[Hojuman]

Jesus Pat. Great over. No idea Denly.

 

[Themanbun]

****ing hell those balls jagging back

 

[pupstar]

Here we go come on Gary.

 

[Themanbun]

How much better is cricket to watch in a country where the ball actually does something

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Burns out to the short ball again
