SOCCERROO FOX Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Was that Matthew Mott I saw in the England dressing room?
Captain... Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 We need KP out early, run out chance? Nah he'll just chip it to mid-wicket. Fvcks sake, I really don't know what has happened to us, fair play in the first test we were done by some excellent bowling, but now we are just giving away our wickets.
Donut Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Disasterous start for England, a slow run rate and losing wickets. With a longer tail to bat its looking very bleak. Australia started the day 8/11 to win the game. Very generous
Donut Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Can you honestly see anyone in the side currently in form enough, or capable enough, to bat their way to a big hundred? Its basically a case of batting for 3 days now and frankly, who will occupy the crease?
Captain... Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 6 Our run rate has got above 2 an over. Bell and Carberry to go on and make big centuries,
Captain... Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 I was going to go to bed, but I'm enjoying this, I think I'll have another whisky.
leicsmac Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Gooch is going to need more hair replacement given the amount he must be tearing out at this batting performance. 3 wickets gifted away.
Captain... Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 ****s sake, I should have gone to bed, is Watson really that good? We can't let them bowl 5 maidens in a row (and counting). Nice of Mitch to get us off Nelson.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Prior looked awful for his duck surely he has to go if he doesn't make runs in the 2nd dig
Guest MattP Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Appalling n batting, dreadful selection. Take a bow though Mitch, as much as I'm hating this what magnificent cricket. Incredible fast bowling.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Upishly played for the hat trick ball. Just goes to show how much confidence he had at the moment. Wasn't close to selection in England and even last summer here although injuries didn't help.
Brooksy Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Brutal from Johnson. Could see a 5-0 if we're this bad for the whole series.
Brooksy Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 There's the 8th. Time for a Monty Panesar double century.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 There's the 8th. Time for a Monty Panesar double century. 9th
Brainy Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Aus have scored something like 1200 runs in 3 innings to our 400 odd. Says it all.
CKB Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Cook, Prior, KP outta sorts Root still finding his feet Trott gone home These are serious times for England, not only what I highlighted with players outta form, etc we also have a totally wrong mindset and in many ways the in your face attitude from the Aussies have got to us We seem scared, we seem like we don't actually wanna be there and apart from Bell and Carberry this could have been even more embarrassing! But this hasn't just happened overnight, demolished in the 1st test and at home we got VERY lucky at times and that series just went our way in crucial parts in matches Our 1st innings scores for ages have been dreadful, something is very wrong with this side.. The win at home only papered over the cracks and these cracks are now very much seen.... What is the answer? god knows! Either something clicks for us and soon or changes may have to be made but that's not just an easy thing to do either Tough times ahead
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 7 December 2013 Posted 7 December 2013 Really didn't expect us to be batting at tea on the 3rd day
