Brainy Posted 27 December 2013 Posted 27 December 2013 Been saying all along that I want to see us bat first and then give the Aussies something to think about. They get a big score batting first and we just crumble chasing anything over 250. Atleast with a score, albeit average, we have something our bowlers can defend without having to go our for the 2nd time knowing they're bowling to try and save the game
Guest MattP Posted 27 December 2013 Posted 27 December 2013 Actually a good days play for us. Stokes looking even better with the ball, would show some character if we could pull this back to 3-2.
Craig Posted 27 December 2013 Posted 27 December 2013 If we win this test then we'll win the 2013 Ashes 4-3. We can then hopefully go on and win the 2014 Ashes 1-0.
theessexfox Posted 27 December 2013 Posted 27 December 2013 Did Broad's 'batting' not wind up anyone else?
Aus Fox Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 If we win this one, we are 4-3 up then even if we lose in Sydney we win the Ashes on away goals. Come on
Lamby Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Johnson should really get rid of the porno moustache
chrishlcfc Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 To go from being in an excellent position to being in an absolute precarious position all in the space of one over, absolutely awful, infact those last two dismissals were quite frankly embarrassing.
Guest MattP Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 That day is the worst of the lot, indefensible on a good surface.
Alexikokopops Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Been drinking with Roofox. Spent the afternoon napping in the stands. I've got this down to a tee
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Alex is selling himself short he made it to the titty bar at lunch but 3 pints before 11.30 did him in
Corky Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Just when they looked like showing some fight and "pride", pitiful.
Super_horns Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Making it too easy - Ian Bell's first ball shot summed up the performance nicely. If somebody like him is throwing his wicket away then there isn't much hope...
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Poor was Alex trying to have a nap during the 3rd session
Guest MattP Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Poor was Alex trying to have a nap during the 3rd session Could have joined the rest of the batsman!
Spiritwalker Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Stayed up till 3.30 watching this shite. If Bell and Bresnan had played those shots for my village side they would be batting at 10 and 11 in the next game.
Corky Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 Atherton, Hussain, Lloyd, Gower must be feeling so familiar in the commentary box as we repeat the feats of their side circa 1988-2005 with inept collapses and hammerings in Australia. Just need Tuffers to play in the Fifth Test with Devon Malcolm opening the bowling.
Matt Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 2 chances not taken. If we stand any chance we need to make the most of opportunities.
Aus Fox Posted 28 December 2013 Posted 28 December 2013 2 big drops and now root on to bowl, the tactics in this match so far have been strange to say the least
Aus Fox Posted 29 December 2013 Posted 29 December 2013 Come on... 1 down let's get another quick one
