Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Now Root. Completely thrown it away. 2-0 Australia. And we can’t blame anyone but ourselves. Awful bowling yesterday. Ridiculous batting when completely in charge today. We’re still in a good position to get parity, which isn’t a bad effort. We’ll then be chasing in the fourth innings and they won’...

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Yep. 2 quick wickets here and we’re only one away from Broad coming in. Positive start from Brook, but agree this is a period to let them tire themselves.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
The old adage of not judging a good score until both sides have batted is ringing true here. Hopefully we can build on this. Great start.

If no rain, can we offer some more tickets to the Oil people?

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
WTF are they doing starting on a Wednesday?!?!?!? - sigh, better late than never...Who dropped what? Pope dropped Warner at slip. Thanks. They dropped a few first test, too, but that's no reason for us to make it all uphill by doing more of the same... And yeah Jimbo, excellent win for Lancy. I thi...

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
I think ‘it’s not happening for England at all on this series’ is a bit of an overstretch. While not perfect at Edgbaston we were close to winning the game. We’ve had an underwhelming 90mins here.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Australia have batted well. We’ve not caught very well. They’ll be delighted to the through the first hour and now look in a good position for a commanding first innings score.
Elsewhere across London, brilliant win for Lancs having almost ballsed it up on day 2.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Realistically there’ll need to be 80 overs for it to be a result. We’ve maybe got 30 left tonight, which means 50 squeezed between the showers tomorrow. Hopefully they manage it.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Hugely valuable from Robinson this. Another 20 and we’ll be close to par I reckon.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Yeah that spell yesterday afternoon was a killer. Far more significant than the declaration.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Big moment for Mo here. Needs a breezy 40 to get us up to a defendable total.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Agreed this partnership is important. It feels like there have been a lot of key points in the test like this. It’s been really good. Well fought with periods where both teams have been on top or under pressure and each have fought back well. Lovely stuff.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
Massive day ahead. You can almost smell the potential for collapse from here. England have to make sure they build a platform. Bazball hasn't all been about smashing it all over and this morning the key has to be not losing more than 1 wicket and accumulating. We can then reassess in the afternoon ...

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
I get why he’s doing it. If he wants everyone else to play without fear and take bowlers on, he needs to be seen to be doing it. He just seems to be verging on the reckless.

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
But that argument goes for any wicket. Nobody is happy getting out. But they are under the freedom to play these shots. That’s the whole point of it. Play their natural game. If they get out they get out. All I’m seeing here is that an aggressive shot getting you out is a ‘dickhead’ shot whereas if...

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
I’ve thought about it more while cooking tea, and while still anti declaration I can understand more why they’ve done it. We need to take 20 wickets to win the match. Generally the easiest times to do that are the new ball, very end of the day, and the start of a new day. We’ve given ourselves a sho...

Re: creeeeeeeekeeeeeet
The declaration isn’t for me, but I can live with it. It didn’t feel like one of those evenings with gloomy skies at the end of a tiring day where a wicket in a tricky 20 minutes felt likely. At that point maximising our own total felt like the best way of winning the game to me.
