He does struggle to convert 50s into 100s, so he may choke it up.
Thatās a few times Hazlewoodās brought that one out now.
The lad is fkn lethal when he wants to be.
Love it.
He shut his eyes with that last bouncer.
i would too with a pill aimed at my head at 145km/h!
Such a poor display from Australia today. Have lost the test on today alone
Mannnn how fkn lucky to get toe end of the bat then and away
Have some faith. Weāve got the best attack in the world and weāre at home. Couple of quick wickets tomorrow and weāre on. If weāve got them 6 down with 120 to go itās still good. Root and Bairstow are the key wickets. Going to be a great day of play tomorrow. This is good stuff. We were pretty bad today in the first session. Iāll give you that.
If we get Root out in the first hour tomorrow we win, if we donāt they win.
Full of panic merchants in here. Weāre still good things
Watching our dismissals today. Horrible batting. They just didnāt care.
They didnāt need to be overly aggressive but shouldāve been in his ear from the start.
Bairstow is a danger. Letās assume we get Woaks and Root. Theres still another one to get to expose the tail to the pacemen. Early wickets are definitely required. Or, will it get close and we run through them? Love this stuff!
Yep, agree. We didnāt take the follow on which almost seems like a no go these days. But, if you donāt youāve gotta play for time. Particularly with the night session and the potency in bowling with that.
Yep, can turn in an instant. Smooth sailing needing 140, two quick wickets and suddenly England are in trouble.
iāll grant the batting didnāt seem that good by the aussies, but is anyone else suspicious about out of 4 days now, thereās only been 1 session where the ball has absolutely zinged around and looked unplayable ??
maybe the cough lollies made a brief ressurection in the final session on day 3.
Funny though how like i said, only one real session that ball pinges around like a pinball machine.
Was a new ball that session, other night sessions have had a 30+ over ball
Brand new ball last night with a bit of moisture in the air. Was always going to be a tough session to get through but some of our players have shocking technique and huge technical issues against the swinging ball
What a new and different technical deficiency for Australian batsmen to have.
Batting today was terrible. There was a nonchalance about it as if we already had enough runs. Needed to bat into session two to have a new ball for session 3. Instead, we went for quick runs and presented England a chance.
Agree about being good things but if you were going on the body language of our skipper in that session then he looked like he was panicking more than anybody.
Surely we still win.
