3rd test - Headingley

[Father Jack Hackett]

No chance.

We'll be lucky to bat til lunch at this rate

 

[JackL]

Not sure why anyone would be embarrassed, winning is just a by product of entertainment iirc

 

[Durham-Mackem41]

The difference in the slips is night and day

 

[PeteFTM]

Calm down everyone ffs, they’re ruling out the draw

 

[Boo]

This two have to put on a hundred to give us any chance of achieving parity. I can’t see it happening.

 

[sonson]

Series could be over by tomorrow

 

[JackL]

Never did I think when getting old Trafford tickets that it would be a dead rubber

 

[Baby Give It Up]

Bairstow reminds me of Sunderland v Charlton when we scored 3 own goals in a game. The bloke has had a horrid series and should be dropped

 

[Classic94]

Johnny should be dropped. He’s lost all confidence.

Duckett’s the only batsman who’s performed well in this series. Even Root’s been underwhelming.

 

[Stormo]

Series could be over by tomorrow

Be exactly half way through the series.

With Stokes anything is possible. He’s capable of 100+, Mo and Woakes both capable of adding decent scores.

The likelihood is we’ll be out under 120, but we do have a chance

 

[Bears Beets]

Thought Crawley, Root and Brook got good balks tbf, Duckett it really is just his game so hes going to get some poor dismissals.
That shot by Johnny was just crap

Crawley was a stupid dismissal, 20 mins before the end and he just lazily hung out an edge, root should’ve left and brook’s didnt surprise me.

All 5 highly avoidable.

Mountain to climb, credit to the Aussies

Aye need them to get that lead down to 100 and go from there

Absolutely no confidence in that happening mind

 

[Deleted member 7993]

Barstow man has to be dropped now

Somebody should do it.

 

[Raker]

Never did I think when getting old Trafford tickets that it would be a dead rubber

That must be a gutting feeling, your essentially paying £100’s for a exhibition.

 

[Julio_Schwarz]

This whole series, England have been spectacular at losing momentum, losing the game turning moments. We have been so casual, lacking focus. Treating this like another series. Aussies are treating this like the Ashes. They are driven and focussed, ruthless. Really poor because on talent, the teams are not far apart. Attitude and professionalism they are miles apart

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

That Bairstow one has annoyed me. The silly sods yesterday are just that and it's expectes. Root's was a decent delivery but Bairstow's was absolutely appalling.

 

[radjee gadjee]

This could be all over before we kick off against Gateshead tomorrow afternoon.

 

[sonson]

Be exactly half way through the series.

But if they're 3 nil by close of play it's academic

 

[PeteFTM]

Tbf, just like Lionel Perez, we have a long tail. We’re still in with a chance, not game over yet.
