THE ASHES

About fucking time. Really costly runs to concede there.

Again I might me wrong with me being a noob, but it seemed they made the same mistake England did with agar, in changing their bowling style cos it was the bottom of the order.

Yeah an element if that. But occasionally tailenders do put on runs because they've nothing to lose and just start swinging at things. It infuriates the life out of bowlers.
 
Get in.

Silly review for Australia that, I'd have thought they'd have learned their lessons on using reviews.

Brilliant timing to get him out.
 
Yet another disgracefully selfish review from Watson. Someone needs to have a word with the cunt.
 
Great intuitive captaincy from Cook. If Root had bowled he would quite likely to have been twatted to all corners of the ground, thus giving the Aussies added confidence. I regard Bresnan as very innocuous when the wicket isn't giving him any help, but he certainly pulled one out of the hat there! 🙂
 
Watson using it was ridiculous.

I'm pretty sure hughes didn't feel or hear the contact so I suppose his is understandable.
 
This is such a joy to watch. Excellent cricket from England - Truly though this has been utter dross from the Aussies. 😀
 
Clarke gone! Follow on would be immense. The Aussies haven't had the right mentality the whole innings and lack a cool head. Clarke making rash shots too! We'd tear through them again if we could get them back in.
 
Fantastic stuff! I've not seen a review - was it hitting? If not that's just funny. Watson public Aussie enemy number 1!
 
Will England make them follow on you think ?

If they can they'd be fucking mad not to imo, they're not right mentally.

I suppose the risk is that they do get it right & you have to bat last on the wicket though, but they don't seem at the races at all.

They need 68 runs..

But yeh their is danger if you do allow them to follow on, they go and chalk up a great 2nd innings.. But the fact as you say they are mentally fcuked.. i'd make em bat again..
 
Yep agree with FFF - Their heads must be scrambled. Make them follow on for sure. Watson sitting on the balcony all alone looking like the biggest chump in the ground. 🙂
