FIRST ASHES TEST: Edgbaston

[Mr Redknapp]

Foakes?

Should be in the team full stop.

Trump

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Could be a classic this. We'll probably end up needing to bowl the Aussies out for 200ish which isn't impossible. Need Ali to turn up with the ball.

 

[Mainze]

Let’s see if we can repeat what the Aussies did at 8 down.

 

[smoker]

We lack alternatives

Injuries notwithstanding we've never had so many decent wicket keeper batsmen. I'd say Bairstow is the best ability-wise but not on current form.

 

[Sack Fatto]

Moeen looks shot. Matt Parkinson in soon with Rashid injured?

Woakes plays very technically correct and it looks a different game.

Woakes plays very technically correct and it looks a different game.

All depends on Broad playing the situation really if we are going to get anything near 70 runs lead.

 

[Snappy]

Lets just not bother then and give them the win. Saves a few days bothering with the cricket

Give them the Ashes

Let’s see if we can repeat what the Aussies did at 8 down.

Fingers crossed. Would be just what we need.

Another cracking session of cricket. The Aussies have done well here. Mind Alis wicket was horrendous.

 

[chelt_mackem]

Barring a miracle partnership from Broad and Woakes, the only way we're winning this is if we do it today.

Good stuff from these 2 so far, sensible cricket. Shame some of their teammates couldn't do the same.

Bairstow

I have a feeling they might have better plans for the tail. And we don't have a Smith.

A miracle? We are ahead. If we can get a lead of 80 I will be very happy.

Wakes!

 

[Liverpool Beachball]

Go on Woakes

 

[Julio_Schwarz]

Shot Woakes.

Miracle partnership, I'm talking both of them going big, which would be unexpected. It's not over yet, but assuming we don't add loads more, we need to skittle them for fuck all.

 

[dangermows]

Game ower. Some shite dismissals this morning like apart from Burns

Game over ffs LOL

He's got to be dropped. It's like playing with 10 men currently.
