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

[Bears Beets]

Aussies to win by an innings and 5 runs is my guess

Inevitable, I don’t think we’ll even get this close.

 

[Doctor_Sunlun]

Ahh man that Neser is absolute bang average as well, making him look like prime Jimmy

 

[scotch]

Brook is gonna have a slog isn’t he

Want to get the scores level by end of play and put the pressure back on them...
Aussies will pack the slips and offside and just bowl it wide to him till he wafts or walks across his stumps bored

Another one who has the brains of a soft back crab

Harsh mate, I got 6 GCSEs

 

[NodsNeph]

Can none of them just flat bat it into the ground?

 

[Scotty 1978]

It’s okay lads, gather round the fire get the guitar out and let’s talk about how good we are 2-0 down.

“Keep the faith”

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Absolutely thick as fuck

 

[Hetty]

They better wake Archer up from his nap, maybe needed soon

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

I’m so hungover I can’t even get angry at them. You’ve just got to laugh. 4 years of prep, the worst Australian side for a decade, and they still make us look unbelievably village

 

[Bears Beets]

Is there any dodgy betting patterns going on?

Nah, we’re just shite at batting, also bowling and fielding.

 

[Kumbuka]

Of the 33 wickets so far this series, at venues notorious for bounce, how many have been driving on the up?!

 

[Ongo Baglogian]

Who could have known two blokes averaging 30-35 after 60 odd test matches aren’t cut out for it?

 

[Scotty 1978]

Would’ve won this if Hank had done the match thread

Tbf Brook has found Bazaball a good method in his career so far. Three knocks in he needs to adapt it though.

 

[The Mole]

I feel another thumping incoming. We’ll be lucky to avoid an innings defeat the knars

 

[Inside Forward]

Crawley could have been out caught and bowled about 3 times in the first innings as well to go with the one he got in the first Test.

Sick to f***ing death of seeing him and Pope’s names in the XI.

 

[Doctor_Sunlun]

Did none of them watch smith and lasagne yesterday just put away bad balls and grind the bowlers down and think, you know what that looks quite effective

 

[ir35]

That’s my mind fully made up with Crawley.

 

[Sea to Shining Sea]

Ahh man that Neser is absolute bang average as well, making him look like prime Jimmy

They’re far too impatient to just nudge and nurdle him about and around a massive oval.

Much better to just throw the hands at him and get caught

 

[Binxy]

At least I don't have to get up early tomorrow.
