Ashes 2017-2018

woah! Lyon wears one on the grill!

I realise it can be the pitch...other conditions etc but it's like aust know they are about 300 in front...so they don't value their wicket as much.

6-80 isn't good but it's still a lead of 295.

7-90

sheesh

Eng need 354. Anyone give the Poms a chance? I don't. Aussies to rip thru them tonight.

Well...it'd be a record (isn't the best chase 315?) but just not to sound too cocky I always think they have a chance. But...I just don't see it.

I reckon England will get to 300 odd, Root and Cook to do something special - but not special enough

 

[globaleagle]

sheesh...bedtime!

- this usually guarantees the immediate loss of 4 wickets!

 

[Chip and Chase]

Tonights twilight session will be interesting, if there is as much movement as last night there is no way the Poms will chase 350. In fact they won't chase 350 even if the ball doesn't move. Lyon will take a Michelle this dig.

Very amusing hearing the commentators who have been bagging England mercilessly in every area now have a bit of nervousness in their voice as England get the target down to 200 with 7 in the bank !!! Smith looking extremely nervous out there at the moment

Can't believe all the rubbish Anderson has been copping so far this series prior to today, the guy has 500+ test wickets, so I'd say he can bowl a bit lol

 

[voicefromthehill]

It's fair to say we badly need a wicket - our bowlers aren't having the same joy

 

[Chip and Chase]

We could do with the new ball and more importantly 2 new reviews. Still think Gazza is the key tomorrow.

so four wickets it was then.

Though not immediate I guess.

Good final day coming up!

 

[Chip and Chase]

Maxwell has been in the runs again. Maybe Handscombe might be a bit nervous - Marsh to 5 and Maxwell to 6 ??

Nevill and Wade have done nothing so Paine is safe for time being

 

[globaleagle]

second ball wicket!!!!

c'mon!


I wish my stream wasn't 3 mins behind espncricinfo as it's too tempting to read what happens before I watch it.

Root is the key - it is more Headingly than Adelaide with the Barmy Army there

Edit post above I didn't send - yeah, no drama ever, we had them always

 

[globaleagle]

root goooooone! bottom edge caught behind!

Be tough for eng now!

Anything to keep the toolbag army from their crap singing!

 

[Clint]

woot woot - Go Josh!!

Never in doubt - thank you workcover for giving me unfettered access to the entire ashes series from the comfort of my lounge (note - my leg is seriously screwed up and can't work, nods to he PI that isn't but may investigate me)
