What time will the first ball of the Ashes be bowled tomorrow? I gotta work but I've convinced the boss to let me watch the first over in the break room that we've just got a new 55" telly in

More renegades talk. Like do they not realise it's a national audience?

Lol Biased Boring The state of commentary in this generation - get the young to listen to the 70s 80s 90s commentary and show then how bad it is now

Ashes game 1 predictions.

Mine is a draw. Both teams will be rusty and bowling on both sides will prove too inconsistent this game and struggle to bowl each other out

Draw - game will be so badly rain affected that no result will be possible.

How much of the rain will be evening rain though? Ground drains well.

We should get a full day in today, most of the next two and all of the final two days.

Most of my the rain here has been overnight recently.

Big call to bat first..traditional, but in the conditions interesting...

 

[hey shorty]

The Nielsen guy is woeful, surely there's another keeper batsman out there better than this guy?

He's a VERY good keeper/batsman.

Just not in this form

I think Australia will win the test and series fairly easily.

I really don't know so genuinely asking. Is he? Doesn't seem to do much at all in any form and often gets picked as a pure batsman. Stats might prove me wrong.

I hope so.

Does it feel weird have a welcome to country by indigenous Australians, followed by the national anthem of the country that slaughtered them by the millions?

Surely our Anthem goes first

 

[ams4crows]

You ripper first ******* ball!!

 

[Cromulent]

What an absolute peach of a first ball..

 

[Scorpus]

Nice job Carey!

 

[Cap]

Carey into the match early !

Great cricket. Awful commentary.

Mark Waugh and Shane Warne please go away.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I feel Shane Warne embarrassed himself with his boas commentary of the first wicket. He was pretty vocal in the lead up about Starc not being selected. Starc then rolls him first ball and all Shane can do is downplay it to suit his narrative.

 

[Crow54]

A good start, but I never get my hopes up. Aussie batting is often just as woeful.

Was it the 4-0 series win or the 5-0 series win in the last two home Ashes series that made you feel this way?
