Starc, Smith in, Khawaja, Pattinson out.

Australia XII for fourth Test: David Warner, Marcus Harris, Marnus Labuschagne, Steve Smith, Travis Head, Matt Wade, Tim Paine (c, wk), Pat Cummins, Peter Siddle, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Josh Hazlewood

In theory that's a ripping attack.

Theory and practice don't always sync up though..

Predicted showers and top temp. 16dg.

I call bullshit!

Predicted showers - it is ****ing ENGLAND! They don't take showers.

I believe the 16 degrees bit though. That's the temperature of their water, which is why they don't take showers.

Righto chaps. SOS, Spidey, Mutts, KC.

We batting or bowling ?

Me, bowl.

Time for our openers to act like openers. Let’s get through the first hour.

btw, how good is Mel Jones. Such a breath of fresh air.

Yeah, Mel's good.

But she's no Isa.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Good toss to win. Please get through this opening session.

Mel came and trained with us back in the day when she was a youngster just making her way in the Victorian team.

She talks more sense than most of the former players in the commentary box.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Jeez, the pitch looks dry.

Get a big score on the board 1st up.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

There is really no call to sing “Jerusalem” in the first over.

 

[Hopper10]

Warner is key for this session, needs to get through Broads spell.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Oh FFS.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Nek minnet.

 

[Hopper10]

Nekk minute, fudge......

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Warner is key for this session, needs to get through Broads spell.

I blame you.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

I fear this one will be lost on the first morning.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

We have too many left handers, the Poms love bowling to them.

 

[Mav]

I told you guys Warner should be in the team. Zero foot work. He has no idea.

 

[Hopper10]

I blame you.

Yep, me too. He’s a shell of his former self. Survival mode.

 

[Themanbun]

Jofra bowling like my blokes on a Saturday morning after a heavy night on the piss

 

[Samsquanch]

To finish off what I was going to say Hojuman tonight I think we should bowl.
