Australia's slow scoring rate has given England the chance of a second new ball, which could prove decisive.

And a couple of ice cold Peronis to finish

Have added little spiced baby potatoes to go with it.

Stop torturing me with you cordon bleu. All I got was sausage and chips with a bit of mayo.
And there goes Khawaja. Bugger!

Stokes should have a bowl as he’s normally a wicket taker

We had it right, Jeff.

Cummins should take the bowlers on now. They won't get there by nudging it around.

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

We really need to play this like a T20 now if we want a win. Can't keep defending. Need to attack.
Wickets the problem though.

Cummins has no idea about the line of the ball. Edged several times to gully/backward point.

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

Wow. Close. Phew!

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

Damp ground aiding England. That would have been 4 yesterday.

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

Right digits, wrong order

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

Bowlers keeping it tight and fielders backing them up with out of their skin performances.

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

I'm going to watch Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Much less stressful.

 

[Hoop-Leif]

BOOOOOM!!!

Rooty baby

 

[Hammersmith bookie]

Roooooot. Now come on, take that new ball and let Broady end them. Oh yes baby

 

[Hoop-Leif]

That livens things up lol

 

[Hammersmith bookie]

Why has Stokes not taken the new ball and tossed it to Broad ? Cummins 2 sixes off Root

Could be a huge mistake ….

 

[Hoop-Leif]

30 req, 2 wickets req

 

[LandOfHoopsAndGlory]

Finally. Someone playing with attack mentality. And it had to be the captain.
30 to go. This would have been over had the top order used the same tactics!

 

[Hammersmith bookie]

Ffs Stokes so close to unbelievable catch off Broad. That would've been unreal. Aussies getting luck at the wrong time for us
