4th Ashes Test - Old Trafford

Ball that mind.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Cracker that.

 

[Silly Point]

I don't believe it

Some delivery that, still perhaps could have played it better

 

[safcpelaw]

Big innings for bairstow and buttler today. Realistically I reckon Pope will be coming in for him or buttler soon.

100% goes on these last two games who we drop.

 

[TopCat]

Cracking ball, but Bairstow gets castled far too often for a top class batsman

 

[Jack Torrance]

I don't believe it

Wasnt much he could do like

 

[safcpelaw]

Ah well Sunday will be a day of rest then. Unless buttler does something special but I’m going for 11 runs

 

[dixonsafc]

Great ball, but no surprise to see Bairstow skittled again. He's in shocking form.

 

[cooky]

While i agree about pope denly and roy will be dropped ahead of Buttler

Different positions though isn’t it, to be honest all 3 probably would end up being out for me.

World class

Pushing at the ball again

 

[cooky]

Hard to be overly critical of bairstow there really. It’s only his record of getting bowled that makes you want to criticise.

Pope can bat anywhere in the middle order could have Sibley for denly pope for roy though at least

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

England relying on Ben Stokes again. Beyond embarrassing

 

[cooky]

World class

Pushing world class white ball, poor-average red ball... much like a lot of our side.

 

[Jack Torrance]

Buttler's stats this series

 

[cooky]

Yeah could do, in an ideal world I would be having root 4 stokes 5 Pope 6 bairstow/another 7. Burns has 1 opening slot tied up but there are 2 top order positions up for grabs.

Do you not think credit should go to the Aussie bowlers rather than keep calling our players embarrassing!

Every wicket bar possibly Denly have been very very good balls.

As much as it pains me and everyone else I would imagine but their bowlers on a flat pitch have bowled very very good indeed.

 

[Mrjardine]

Both Roy and Bairstow got good balls but they are pushing so hard at the ball any movement is going to have them on bother.

It’s a gun Aussie attack this mind.
