Australia v England, 2nd Test, 4th December 0400

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Nibbling at easy bait yesterday, Buffet bowling today, 5 dropped catches, appalling body language and we look absolutely knackered.

This is going to be a long month.

Absolutely no excuses, they have been building up for this series for several years, they said they didn't need warm up games or a warm up pink ball game........ they were rested in September.

This isn't an endorsement of the opposition either, they don't impress me.

 

[YorkshireLad92]

Australia's day 100+ lead and we're in massive trouble

 

[chopsfc007]

There was the option of a pink ball game.
We turned it down.

Aye on a totally different pitch

 

[Ongo Baglogian]

Well that was dreadful. Going to be a long long winter.

 

[Binxy]

Well that was an infuriating watch

But, but bazball is entertaining.

 

[rentaghost]

Well that was utterly horrendous. Bowlers who offered no control, couldn’t bowl anywhere near a consistent length, offered freebies whenever there was a modicum of pressure. And when they got a barely deserved breakthrough the fielding was beyond abysmal

Utter f***ing shit

 

[Doctor_Sunlun]

Can’t see past another Aussie win here now

Correct

The body language is the scariest part for me. We've played 4 days of cricket so far and their heads already seem to have gone

What did that gave to do with Bazball? If anything it worked well and was pretty entertaining by the Aussies

 

[Binxy]

Aye on a totally different pitch

Doesn't matter, it was pink ball under lights.

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

The Ashes was nice while it lasted. Once again they give you a tiny bit of hope, before walloping you in the bollocks.

 

[VenisonsMullet]

Oh well. There's always 2027
Hopefully with a new coach and a players who can play properly.

 

[Lagger]

In bother. Inevitable

 

[Keith S30S]

The dropped catches are the main difference between the 2 sides, simple as that.

Worked well?
We're going to lose by a huge margin on day 3.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Whole series has been a damp squib so far, even the shite TNT commentary doesn't help.

You never quite know with this team but long way back from here.

 

[hudson88]

Borderline worrying

It's very worrying. Long long month ahead

 

[Voice of fair play]

Fine margins in big test matches!

And as the old saying goes ‘ catches win matches’

Simply can’t afford to drop as many catches it’s hard enough!
