Mr Big and Mr Silent
They sound like Mr Men character names. Surely if you are doing something dodgy you could come up with better nicknames for yourself?

■■■■■■ hell, it’s official. Marsh in for Handscomb
England won the toss and are batting.
Mitch Marsh in as predicted, Boof wasn’t pulling our leg when he said he would be in, a few pints and he was pretty up front
what a terrible decision. 2 Marsh’s in the side again. I never thought I’d see it. Watch the wolves come out when both of them fail.

Hope the boys rip into them. If we can dismiss them for under 200, we can really open up old wounds and also hopefully bat on the best days of the Test, Days 2-3. Mitch Marsh has a worse Test batting averages than the blokes listed at 7-9 in the order. This fascination with all-rounders started in 2005 when Freddie Flintoff won the Ashes for the Poms. Since then we have tried numerous players in that position and the best we had was Watson, who was one of the most maligned cricketers to ever wear a Baggy Green.

I just read - Is this the last test at the WACA?
No, last Ashes test.
Tests against NZ etc will be still at the WACA
Wow. So much history.
The new stadium looks nice.

It would be sad if the new stadium produced docile, lifeless drop-in wickets like most of the rest of our Test venues. Even the WACA is nowhere near as fearsome as what it was.
Poms off to a fast start 0/17 after 3 overs. Scoring can be very quick at the WACA, especially early.
Cook is cooked
Cook was nowhere near that, he started walking before he was given
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anything more plumb than that

Stoneman getting worked over but he still countering when can. Lucky to still be in with a few dropping short of catchers.

Not been watching but if there a few dropping short then that would indicate a lower wicket and the WK and slips need to move up a bit?
