3rd Ashes Test - Headingley

[Ashley In!!]

Has anyone done that?

There's one in the replies to the post you've quoted as it happens. To be fair I'm following on both here and twitter as well as watching.

To chase 88 with 3 wickets remaining is too difficult.

Particularly in test match cricket where the opposition can stop the runs flowing vs the senior batsmen, and target the lower order tailender instead.

That’s the spirit

Haway youngin, keep calm

Why the Fook is he wearing a watch?

If they are offering singles, take them.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

At the risk of a massive jinx - at least one of our tail enders is usually good for a handy 30 or whatever. Even Broad was at it the other week. That could be enough in this situation, you never know...

Did anyone hear Boycs nearly dropping the f-word about 5 minutes ago?

Coz he’s well cool innit.

Archer's 1st class average is above 30.

Woakes has 15 tons has looked like a rabbit against these.

Because he's different to mere mortals like us.

 

[JohnSmithUK]

Calm down Ben.

Yeah, but does Chris Woakes look like he could punch a lion in the face? I think not.

 

[The Snowman]

Calm down Ben.

My memory is short I take it back.

Worked him over with the short ball all the same. My point more being averages for tailenders in county cricket doesn't see them face this attack.

Sussex being a division 2 side in Archers case. Where we've seen Rimmington top the batting averages at Durham at one stage.

Yeah, but does Chris Woakes look like he could punch a lion in the face? I think not.

I mean thats a winning argument right there. I accept the defeat.

Wouldn't take his watch off for that, either.
