Australia v England, 3rd Test, 16th December , 23.30

Well taken by Crawley

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

That’s a fantastic grab that mind. He might be a shite batter but he’s a fantastic fielder.

 

[mackembhoy]

I mean I’ll take the wicket all day long, but it’s another shite delivery really. It’s just horrific batting.

Yep a ridiculous tactic

Look what f***ing happens when you ask them to drive.

Gerrinnn Zak you normally useless plank.

Absolute worldie lad

 

[Hyltons finest]

Tremendous that

 

[jcrossan]

Don't you just love message boards.

 

[Mackem2017]

Ffs I now think we can win the ashes, easier to just go 3-0 down

 

[chopsfc007]

Still half arsed hmm

 

[KarenDent]

Evening all just switched over to see we’ve taken two wickets

 

[scotch]

Chance to actually apply some pressure with these two at the crease as you wouldn't expect them to score quick. Though Khawaja knows his career is on the line (though I think he was gonna retire after the series anyway)

 

[Keith S30S]

We've come to the party! No Steve Cheat, looking promising.

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

I know this might sound obvious, but it’s so hard to explain how hard it is to catch a ball like that.

It’s one thing catching a high one when you can watch it all the way into your hands, but Crawley has about 0.1 seconds to work out where that’s going and then dive and close his hand at exactly the right time.

Brilliant bit of fielding. Australia having an England moment in getting themselves out.

 

[Raich Carter]

Absolutely fantastic by Crawley that

For the size of him to take this is outrageous.

The sort of catch we see from Pope on the regular.

I find it incredible he's scored 6000+ runs. It doesn't seem that long since he made his debut.

Aye, almost easier if you’re fully stretched out.

2010/11 series, 15 years ago

 

[Nasser Butt-Head]

What a catch that was from Crawley. One handed and so low to the ground? Wow.

Looks like Archer has started here how he finished off the last innings.

 

[yorkyexile]

Im going to sound like a reet owld fart but when did not covering stumps become a thing? Always drilled into us if they run. One man to ball one covers stumps to gather up the throw. More chance of a run out

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

Got one of the most un-aesthetically pleasing actions Tongue like.
