Moeen slog sweeps Lyon into the stand for six runs

Addick Addict

Umpire gets into the huddle to separate the two sides

Same old Aussies always cheating 

Chizz

That deserves a fine.

alli gone

broad 50 incoming

Callumcafc

Argh Moeen mate you can’t swing at that

golfaddick

These 2 have no idea how to bat. Both are swinging & missing. 

Addick Addict

To think Broad started out, like his old man, as an opening batsman

Addick Addict

England 2.52
Australia 1.82
Draw 17.50

Addick Addict

These two are in danger of treading on the square leg Umpire's toes

That first innings declaration is beginning to look like an act of utter folly/a stroke of genius depending on how you look at things.

That all depends on the result

It is, as I've said, concerning that the Aussie bowlers can't get anything out of this wicket. It looks pretty dead.

Many of our wickets have been a direct result of playing aggressively. You can't imagine the likes of Khawaja, Marnus and Smith will bat the same way.

Rothko

Cummings has bowled some great stuff, had it moving.

Callumcafc

The ball is moving for the seamers now and then

McBobbin

Watching bazball I'd like watching your kid climbing a tree. You realise it's great and exciting but you are always in constant fear that something horrific is about to happen

Especially if we have afforded them the time to bat at the pace they want to bat at. Past history has suggested that Stokes will declare at 300 (if we get there) or less but I do wonder if we might just be a bit less brave given the state of the track.

Oh dear oh dear Mr Robinson!

Looks like we won't have the choice.

Brain dead.

crowd loving that from Jimmy

Addick Addict

And Australia have one player who plays Bazball every game. If Head comes in and hits a run a ball 80 then I fear it's game over. 

Callumcafc

I love Bazball.

Addick Addict

Jimmy Anderson - strike rate 400.00

So do I, also love how it makes the soulless so grumpy

Addick Addict

Oh Jimmy Jimmy!

Callumcafc

Jimmy has crunched that through the covers. You love to see it.

Knowing Stokes he will declare 1 ball after tea, if he can 

killerandflash

Stokes will declare when Jimmy has his century.
