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

[DonaldDownTheWing]

The lack of people posting on the thread this morning compared to every other day of the series so far, is probably representative of how the majority of folk have gotten tired of the way they’re playing.

I woke up for a piss, checked the score and I’m off back to sleep. Hoping for a miracle. Enjoy those who’re staying up.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

Actually more annoyed that we are playing sensible now

Same here. It counts for little when you see the stupidity yesterday and shows they actually are capable of proper 5 day cricket

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Credit to Jacks, he batted well in the 1st innings (till his mistake) justifying his selection for me even if he doesn't last much longer.

Just woke up and checked the score.
I'm going to have to get up now ffs.

Played well, had a couple of slices of luck but they've earned it mate.

 

[Sea to Shining Sea]

Batted properly to the situation. Low risk, sensible batting. It’s been excellent. I think it’s going to be hard to build a substantial lead on that pitch now and with the field set as it is. But at least there’s been application

It's mental, we bat sensibly and go the whole session without losing a wicket.
Wonder if it will catch on?

 

[Mr.Thunders]

So then changes for the 3rd test?

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Haddin Is good value like, he enjoyed that as much as we did.

stopped drinking early yesterday so having a few enjoying the test

So then changes for the 3rd test?

Jacks has shown enough grit to stay imo.

 

[CraigyLee]

The annoying thing is that even with how bad we’ve batted and bowled if we had took the chances in the field it would have probably been a very tight test

The Aussies are pretty average
