Make that Sarfaraz is a little um portly

God, now they are copying Bairstow.

One hundred and suxty sux for six with Labuschagne on suxty sux.

That sucks.

Carey you dumb ****

Is Julian the worst commentators - brings nothing but the obvious

 

[DaveyBoy123]

The Aussies bat like they are never allowed to have a partnership last 1 hour.

I'm unsure if I'm in the minority here, but I don't like the Head-Marsh combo at 5 & 6. It will look awesome when things are going well, but when 1 fails, chances are the other will too. If one could work at 4 - which I'm not so certain on - Green at 5 would provide much better balance imo.

Edit: And is it obligatory nowadays to lose a wicket in the last over of a session? It feels like that it happens more often than not!

 

[Heaps of fun]

Ben Sears = Ben's Ears and he does have pretty prominent ears.

 

[Sillygit]

Im hoping for a couple NZ centuries here, actually make a game of it for once.

 

[KiwiRoo]

He used to be good when he could bowl 135+ kph but now he's only pushing 125 and he doesn't have his mate Boult at the other end.

Southees last 4-5 test have been pretty ordinary and it took a jaffa catch from Phillips to get a wicket this innings..... in bowler friendly conditions
been a good bowler for a long time but I think he's pretty much done

Plus why the fu&k are we picking Kuggeleijn to bowl 6 average overs.?.Mitchell could do that and we pick another batsmen or a spinner.
Hard to fathom that one..

Duckett charging down the pitch in Ashwin's first over, missing it and get bowling bowled then shaking his head as he trudged off was very amusing

 

[Hojuman]

Like the Titantic Bazball, never to be seen again.

English crochet went from bazballs to noballs in next to no time.

 

[Samsquanch]

Still down by 76 and only two in hand.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Done 4-1

 

[Hojuman]

Tabloids be crying for heads.

 

[Samsquanch]

Done 4-1

So series drawn (morally)?

 

[SpiderBurton22]

So series drawn (morally)?

Nah, still won morally.

I don't really know what's going on in that cess pool. I no longer see any tweets related to English cricket nor from Morgan etc. other than the one's Smokey Dawson comments on. Maybe they've blocked me (even all of my real and troll accounts don't get anything).

Ripper review - for once we get it right.

Kiwis right on top.
