Only got up from my desk for a glass of water and missed another wicket!

Not moving until lunch now...or the change of innings whichever comes first!

Alright, 4th Test, Australia have to avoid defeat.

England win the toss and will bowl. Interesting call and probably the right one given the overcast conditions and touch of grass on the pitch. Massive first morning.

FUCKING COME ON AUSTRALIA

Oh dear.

 

[TheFasterBlade]

[TheFasterBlade]

[TheFasterBlade]

at least you'll have your pick of seats 😉

 

[tony]

Seven down !!!!!!!

 

[Brizzle]

Mental. I think my Broad top England wickettaker bet is safe now!

Great start - but as they always say, lets see how we do in our first innings.

Surprised to see Aussies drop a bowler, should we expect to see a lot of Lyon? Johnson will only bowl in short stints and I can't imagine they will want to use Starc too much.

Fantastic day to be working from home due to the tube strikes though, thats for sure.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Ryan defo jinxed Smith ....

 

[TheFasterBlade]

9 down. Broad 7/11

 

[Red Astaire]

A history making session - Loving Ryan's jinx 😀

Ain't that the truth!

 

[tony]

Last two showing the others how to do it with the longest partnership in this innings!

 

[tony]

60 all out. 8 FOR 15 FFS wow!

Come on Captain Cook - your country needs you.

 

[Red Astaire]

And that as they say..... Is that!

 

[Mors]

Ryan o'hare - can you hear me, ryan o'hare! Your boys took one hell of a beating! Your boys took one hell of a beating!

We have to grind this out if necessary and just keep them in the field, crazy to leave out your 4th seamer ( although Stokes wasn't needed by us! ) make them pay for it by making them bowl and bowl. The spinners don't seem to do much here.

Absolutely. Would love it if we can keep them in the field deep into tomorrow. I think the cracks will start to appear once Johnson and Starc have been over bowled. It is all down to us getting through the new ball. If we are only 1 or 2 down by the 20th over I think we'll cruise to a large lead.
