  • 14-3 in 8 overs today.
  • Green is a pretty decent 5th bowler too. Faster than most of the England bowlers
  • I think Buttler & Stokes should just tee off from here. Have a bit of fun like Beefy & Dilly did in 1981 and try to turn the tables. Pushing & prodding will only delay the inevitable. 
  • Well that little glimmer of hope soon went. This session couldn't have gone any worse 
  • Bloody Aussie amateurs, all the technology and now the TV cameras down. They should default the Test for this.
  • TMS has gone off air because they've lost pictures and can't see what's happening. So to add insult to injury I'm now having to listen to the Australian radio commentary.

    Because of Local Covid restrictions many commentators are in Australia, but stuck in different cities. I think Aggers is in Sydney, plus a few of the TV commentators
  • Just the last 5 mins shows how good TMS is compared to other commentators. Utter bilge. 
  • 266-6.

    Stokes leading off edge off Cummins to gully.
  • I think that just about wraps it up. All over by lunchtime I reckon.

  • These commentators have been insufferable this morning.

    268-7.

    Buttler edges Hazlewood behind for 23.

    Still 10 behind. 48-5 this morning.

    That shot from Buttler rather proved that. The sort of ball you either need to leave or to welly.
  • Now this has been a lame performance. The position we got into yesterday, pitch still isn’t really doing much so why is it so fucking difficult to just see Cummins and Hazlewood out the attack.

    48/5 is bad enough, but when you think that contained your 5 main batters then it's more than woeful.

    Before the pics & sound went Shane Warne was making the comparison between our lower order to theirs. In their innings the Aussies last 5 made 178 runs. Ours made 40 something.

    And it’s not like it’s a one off. I can’t remember the last time our tail wagged and we had a game changing innings from lower down the order.  
  • Don't worry, we always have Broad to come in & start to tee off.

    Oh wait....
  • I really cant see why Woakes & Robinson are just pushing & prodding. Give it some welly & make their fielders run around a bit. 
  • Scores are level!
  • Oh dear. Not a good look when you get out from a reverse sweep

  • I know we've had real problems reaching 400 over the last couple of years but it looks like we might not even get to 300.
  • Seriously! What was that Robinson?
  • Because Buttler can play the shot in his sleep and it is a legitimate option for him, even the bowlers think they can!
  • 286-8 with that reverse sweep from Robinson. Suppose he wants a free Saturday evening.
  • The fifth Test in Hobart will be a day nighter.
  • Think I’d probably declare now if I was Root. 
  • 296-9.

    Wood bowled by Lyon.
  • At least Leach can see close up what a spinner is supposed to do. 
  • All the concern about the second new ball, and Lyon gets 4 wickets

    Morning session  = 77/8 in 30 overs.

    And wd don't manage to even get to 300. 

    Sack the lot of them.
