Labuschagne - The latest pain in the arse for England for the next 20 years has rolled off the production line. Great player

North Lower Neil

Couple of quick wickets after tea please, would really set this up nicely.

Warne is just a complete knob of a commentator. Spent 5 mins saying they had to hit root out the attack then warner almost plays on and he says "not long till the break just play him out and get through, don't get out to the part timer"

Question for you. Would you rather go for a pint with Warner or Warner 😂

Just wondering if Joe Root is an Australian in disguise. We play all seamers to take advantage of bowling under lights & then bowl so slowly that we will only get around 5 or 6 overs of the new ball in those conditions....and that's using 30 mins of "extra time". Will come tomorrow in the heat of the afternoon and expect the bowlers to get wickets in benign conditions.

Well played sir.

warner gets away with blue murder on these pitches - just pulled a fullish ball from anderson for 4. In england that would've gone anywhere.

playing for the draw on day one.

need mark wood's pace right now. Something to change it up and do something special.

I thought the day/night games were meant to be English conditions & give us an advantage?

Not looking good is it?

Addick Addict

Now that is funny!!!!

Carter

What is England's game plan here, we bowled a really good intense session with Broad and Anderson earlier to no avail but are using Stokes all wrong, he can be so much more strikey and direct. Warner and Labushagne are well and truly in and set and again our bowlers are going to be exhausted. 

kentaddick

warner gone!! caught by broad on 95!

Carter

And as I say that we get Warner out

Everything warner does, his face, the way he moves, his walk, that stupid way he twirls his bat and puts it under his arm for every ball, every fucking movement makes him look like an arrogant arse and I hate him.

Hahahahahaha 

Couldnt happen to a nicer bloke!

oohaahmortimer

That’ll bring the conclusion of a loss a bit quicker

Question for you. Would you rather pour a pint over Warne or Warner 😂

Fixed - tough one

The answer is a simple one, you go with both of them. Pour the pint over Warne and glass Warner

Has to be Shane Warne tho. At least he is a legend of the game he would have some great stories and I would definitely learn something about the game. Warner is just a knob.

Get warne talking about leg spin bowling and he's fascinating to listen to - everything else is eurgh.

colthe3rd

That's the highlight of our series, might as well switch off now

kentaddick

robinson bowling a very nice line to smith.

Addick Addict

Things definitely starting to happen. Need to get another two or three before close of play

Pelling1993

The Aussie's luck is seriously in, how did Marnus get away with that? If that was Root it would've ballooned straight up for a dolly

another burns fumble in the field...

Everything about him winds me up. That stupid bloody haircut

Robinson is bowling decently, but fuck me he is slow. Barely 70mph at times.

Six-a-bag-of-nuts

What price the Aussies have already passed our first innings total
