Well done boys, survived the night. Now let's pummel them tomorrow and get this show back on the road !
Well done lads... a tricky 5 overs seen out and a very healthy 27 added..... run rate falls below 6 but I think we'll allow them that Set up wonderfully for tomorrow....
Long 9 mile run for me tmrw morning so might have to get up early so I’m home in time for the start of play
Hate to say it though…..our new found optimism may very well come back and bite us on the arse. England are never too far away from a batting collapse I’m still prepared for our Aussie friends taking the piss mercilessly
No piss taking mateys. You can keep all your piss. Wouldn't want you to get too dehydrated from all your sobbing if we perchance extinguish your series comeback hopes. Been relaxing and watching Head make a game of it. Seriously, you should have been in a commanding position, but Head butted England with a great knock, ensuring the next day or maybe two will be interesting at least. I feel sorry for poor old Yorkie, who's only got day 5 tickets. This 'Rain Dance' is for you Yorkshire, please log in to view this image Doin' my best to make it rain for you on day 4. Wish me luck. BTW, as for Col's reverse psychology, he even sounds angry in that too. What do they say about leopards and their spots? Luv ya Col. And what can I say about Staines ...that Steels hasn't summed up perfectly! WUM, WUM, WUM, WUM, ... WUM, WUM, WUM, WUM ... etc., etc., and so on. And IF we should lose, all I can say is 2-1, 2-1, 2-1, 2-1, 2-1, 2-1. Let's head on across to Old 'Manure' Trafford and settle this. Then that will allow Stainesy to watch from his plush Oval box, the Dead Rubber without having a seizure from all his excitement. Good luck, (obviously not) and read you tomorrow, your time.
You never let me down mate Great bants. Prepared for your upcoming piss taking if we throw this one away
Genuine question…..is this test series unusually exciting for Test Cricket….or am I possibly understanding more the way it works and it’s complexities ? Must say, it really has got me excited in every game so far
Good to see the women fighting to keep alive their Ashes bid too ! Win the T20's 2-1, first side to win a T20 series against Australia since 2017 . Keep going girls, you have the momentum
Is this am omen? England ladies beat Australia ladies in the latest T20 to keep their ashes hopes alive.... set 119 from 14 overs under Duckworth Lewis method they won by 5 wickets with 5 balls to spare.....
