4th test Manchester

[Disco_Pants93]

More like a slightly aging road with a couple of indents instead of a perfect surface. Isn’t as bad the first two tests, but definitely batter friendly still

Just got it on now mate. Cheers. Work has been rather inconvenient today with the cricket being on.

Fuck me TMS is a tough listen

 

[FatDrummer]

Haven't had time to catch up with the whole thread, but am I correct in thinking we're bowling onto a road again?

A précis.

We should never have put them in to bat.
Bairstow might as well not have hands.
The game is as much as over already.
The Aussies will score 380+

That about covers it I think.



…..sarcasm you understand.

Perfect, thanks mate. Sounds really positive

Just a shortened version of what I read on here….

Don't see the point in having Karthik and Sangakkara commentating on this to be honest.

Canny flat atm this like

Why not?

 

[The Breen Machine]

Why not?

Don't think either are great commentators full stop and I'd rather have some further England/Australia representation.

To be honest though, outside of Atherton, there's not many decent ones to pick from.

Just remember, at least it’s not KP.

Yes I have been subliminally muttering that to myself

If they want a neutral commentator, what's wrong with Simon Doull?

I like Sangakkara….but Karthik did a perfect Commentators Curse at the start of Broad’s last over to Head….”Stuart Broad bowls well to left handlers…” First two balls then smacked to the boundary…..

Nowt wrong with Sangakkara and anyone's better than KP or that Aussie female.

I agree on Atherton - I like Nasser and think Sangakkara is great and Taylor / Ponting pretty good as well.

 

[mackembhoy]

If we're all honest we'd rather have Holding Bumble and Gower.

Just not that same without them.

 

[The Breen Machine]

I like Nasser, don't think he's as good as he initially was though. Seems a bit hyperbolic now and tries to use too many new and trendy terms. IT IS NOT A GRAB NASSER IT IS A CATCH

Really like Taylor, Ponting is canny but I'm not too taken on Sanga.

I really like McGrath on TMS.

With the weather forecast and their series lead, all Australia need to do here is "not collapse" and the ashes are theirs.

Yep they bat the day and us winning is the least likely result with the weather around.

Really needed us to smash a 300-400 to set the game up for us to have the best chance.

Looks perfect for batting. The movement has been pretty easy to play.

Travis Heed the ball is annoying
