Off Topic Cricket 2019

[Stroller]

Great atmosphere at Edgbaston as the Aussies win the toss and bat. England might not mind too much about that if it stays overcast.

Broad has Warner caught down the leg side, but only Bairstow appealed. Not reviewed.

 

[Stroller]

…….and now he's given out LBW to one that's missing leg. Not reviewed.

Good start & Anderson bowling some unplayable balls

They've both bowled a really good length.

Two of the cheats gone. Now for Smith.

 

[jeffranger]

Love the crowd giving smith a welcome

Another one bits the dust

I don't think I would've chosen to bat first on that pitch and in those conditions if I'd won the toss. And that's not in hindsight of our dream start.

I think it was one of those where you don't mind losing the toss. I reckon Root would have batted had he won it.

Poor bowling from Stokes has let the pressure off a bit and now Moeen has come on.

Anderson's only bowled 4 overs, hope he's not injured.

 

[Eric Le Merde]

Anderson is going for a scan, I do hope it's a good one

 

[Stroller]

Smith not out after he reviewed an LBW decision, but while they were waiting for the 3rd umpire, the crowd were singing, 'Cry in a minute, you're gonna cry in a minute.'

 

[Stroller]

Can't believe Pattinson didn't review that one. Looked to be missing leg in real time and ball-tracker shows that to be the case. Some poor umpiring today.

To not review that was completely senseless, especially with Broad bowling around the wicket. I can't remember an innings where the umpires have got so many decisions wrong.

England 2-0 in sessions

We're doing ok without him, mate.

 

[QPR999]

Australia were 122 for 8 and are now 267 for 9 !

 

[Stroller]

A brilliant innings from Smith. From England being totally on top, it's even Stevens on the day.

Yes he's batted really well, as did Siddle who saved their innings.
