Bit there for Lyon - good last over. If the quicks are going to continue to spray them all over the shop, going to need him to make the breakthrough.

Good contest, though. We'll see who can stay calm and keep their heads. Only takes one daft moment from one of these redheaded monkeys to get us back on top again.

I don’t know. It could be the stroke I’m having but I think just saw Simon Goodwin run onto the field to tell our bowlers that we’re winning the contested ball and there’s nothing wrong. #journey

Advantage England after that session. The bowlers need to have a good chat and get their heads screwed on properly after that effort. Back to basics, dot them up.

Boy we needed that

Boy we needed that

Have a feeling we really needed that one from Stokes the over before to stick.

Stokes and Butler. Cannot afford to let these guys build a partnership together or it could go sideways very quickly.

 

[Cannon82]

Don't think someone could physically go harder at the ball than Butler without actually literally throwing the bat.

The first chance Warner didn't take may turn out to the most important missed chance

 

[Cannon82]

Well well, that's quite the **** up.

 

[Crimson Azure]

I fully endorse the run out.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Well well, that's quite the fu** up.

Melbournesque!

I’ll take it.

 

[jhong]

Still would like to see the back of Stokes pretty soon

You're not wrong

 

[Cannon82]

Fair to say there's a wee bit of pressure on Stokes now.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Cannon82 how much sleep are you on? Posted around midnight yesterday then before 6am. Awe

Yep. We'd have to be 80 or 90% from here, but Stokes could also take matters into his own hands and try and win it this session. He's definitely capable.

Go to bed nowish give or take an hour or two and get up at 5.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Just 1 more wicket before the poms get under please. Just 1,or 3.

Sir, your militant devotion is acknowledged and appreciated.

 

[Crimson Azure]

So your telling me there’s a chance? ‘Jim Carey’

 

[Cannon82]

Take that one. Pommy tail has to show a bit of guts and try to hang around with Stokes, but I don't think Archer is the type.

 

[Crimson Azure]

Go to bed nowish give or take an hour or two and get up at 5.

I hope you’re still awake as we are cricketing at the moment.

 

[Cannon82]

I will check in and let you know. It can be difficult to stay awake during cricket, as you well may know.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Poms have thrown this game away. Don't think I've ever seen Hazlewood bowl such a poor line so continuously, dude is exhausted but can't stop taking wickets

 

[jhong]

Hazelwood has been a lot better after lunch , Stoke feeling the pressure

 

[Cannon82]

If Labuschagne was as long as his surname, the Poms would be 8 down.

 

[Deemanding]

Man I was kinda hoping by now it was either the Poms being 3/300 or us having it just about wrapped up, so I could get to sleep on time. Instead I'm going to have to see it through to a late one again...bah.
