Literally every freaking wicket and chance has happened when I've been doing something else. I finally decide to go to bed and boom. Goodnight everyone.

Grounds get fined for not lasting 4 days now. Has a ground ever been fined for being so flat its totally noncompetitive?

Stokes needs to calm things down. England need to grind this one out

Stokes is a far better player when he just goes after it instead of trying to grind his way to runs.

I'm loving it, but we're still effectively 200 for 4. Maybe slow it down a bit and get a lead over 300 before going bananas considering theres only Buttler and Ali to come?

Remember when England would produce sporting wickets. I understand why the wickets are being prepared the way they are. Obviously with the ashes coming up the smart thing is to handicap the Australian quicks as much as possible because Australia has a batting line up that would be good for 1 or 2 collapses in a 5 test series played on a highway but Its so boring.

Obviously with the ashes coming up the smart thing is to handicap the Australian quicks as much as possible because Australia has a batting line up that would be good for 1 or 2 collapses in a 5 test series played on a highway but I dont get it, because its not like our bowlers are going to take 20 wickets on a flat deck. I dont think its as conspiracy theory as you think. I fundamentally believe the groundsmen are instructed to make pitches that give 5 days play and nothing less to sell tickets.

He played like he just wanted to get on the honors board. Two more viable wickets and only a lead of 231

Lionel Richie posted:Lords has always been a poo poo pitch One of the most exciting days of bowling I've ever seen was lords day 1 in 2005. I don't blame England for potentially flattening the wickets. I'd (if I were in charge of English cricket) YouTube up a few videos of Shane Watson and think hmmm Australia has a big dumb oaf playing for them so if the ball swings at all we can take wickets. .

Shuffling the field as an end of match cool-down exercise. Efficient play from New Zealand.
