1973 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 starc holds the key Has he been injured?!? not sure why he's been left out of the side was in amazing form during the world cup great inclusion for sure will be chomping at the bit to bowl and bowl well no doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Chucker Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Starc's overrated. Good but not great. Probably the best one day bowler in the world, but much less effective with a red ball. Australia's best attack is the one they had at Lord's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noob-A-Tron Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) I was correct with Warner. Broad got him again he should bat down the order. I think Lyon might have a day out on this pitch. Edited September 4, 2019 by Noob-A-Tron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1973 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I was correct with Warner. Broad got him again he should bat down the order. I think Lyon might have a day out on this pitch. Warner looks lost against Broad don't think it matters where he bats Broad will get him all day long middle order actually looks good for once Laberhoweveryouspellit really needs to turn one of his half century's into a century then Smith then Head Wade looks ok but needs to back up his 100 he made earlier to give more strenght but I'm ok with how this looks at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noob-A-Tron Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Broad only has to hit the pads and the umps put up the finger, Another LBW that could have been not out (HEAD). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hit leg stump with almost half the ball = umpires call Sent from my AGM A8 using Tapatalk Yep and Umpires call should have been not out it was just clipping Leg. The Angle Broad gets it was harsh. If the Ump had given that not out England would have reviewed it and it would have been not out. Just saying these seem to go England's way. I would be spewing to be given out like that. And Broad Running down the pitch acting like it was Plumb Ump got fooled again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimbleseven Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Forget about reviews and rules for a sec. If he didn't have his leg there he would have been bowled out. Less than 50% of the ball hitting leg stump will still bring the bails off. Besides that the umpire said it was out so it's out.

Noob-A-Tron Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Then why do we not get those LBW's, Like Lyon last test and that cost us the game, Stokes was plumb. I am just glad i don't bet and thank **** for Smith the Poms can not even cheat him out hes that good. It was a shit LBW call mate. England are getting the rub of the green by the umps thats the only thing keeping them in the series is all i am saying. - - - Updated - - - Fun fact in the first 3 tests the LBW's have been 14-4 England's way.

DAG Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Mate No amount of hugs will help when a spinner gets Smith out of a No Ball...

Pie Chucker Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Is there rain forecast for tonight? If not, that was a bad declaration by Paine. Should have batted England out of the match instead of setting them four an over to win with a batting line up selected precisely for that purpose.

Administrators Brad Posted September 8, 2019 Administrators Share Posted September 8, 2019 good morning australian cricket fans I went to bed at the break and we have them at around 4 for 90 odd. They'd dug in a little but Stokes falling for 1 for key. Our quicks really did the job on them and Cummins was fantastic. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noob-A-Tron Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Go Aussies. England been totally smashed this Ashes, only Stokes T20 knock has stopped them being completely embarrassed. England's batting is woeful. I thought this would be a draw with so much rain about but like i have said all along this England team is the worst i have seen. I hope they Drop Warner or Wade and Paine and bring in Carey and a kid. Rest a bowler and Bring in an untried bowler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our quicks really did the job on them and Cummins was fantastic. Brad Yep, getting Stokes early was decisive. If he'd gotten himself in Australia would have been in big trouble. This has been a strange series, it's more like a movie where everyone is either a big star or an extra- Smith, Cummins and Hazlewood V Stokes, Broad and Archer, with the occasional cameo from one of the others.
