1st Ashes Test England v Australia June 16-20 1930hrs @ Edgbaston

[Bedi]

Why isn't Stokes bowling?

matter of time you'd think

 

[showusyacunningt]

Same old England

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Funny things happen in chases. Wouldn't count chickens

Especially when from Cummins down there isn’t much

 

[Plugger35]

How many times has a side declared in the first innings on the first day and lost?
can't have happened too many times.

Looks like it might come back to bite England.

 

[RandB]

Can see England attacking for the first 8 overs and then parking the bus till the new ball.

Yeah, they're soaking up deliveries with short stuff.

 

[Moonwatcher]

We did that in India. Declared on about 9/238 or something

Would have won too if we went on to make another 3 runs (not really)

 

[Mr Meow]

The Poms really do * around between balls

it's ridiculous. I know we did first innings but they're taking it to extremes.

 

[hawkman]

We did that in India. Declared on about 9/238 or something

SA in Adelaide when Khawaja had to open because Warner was off the field too long

 

[Moonwatcher]

wow wow wow so close

 

[stinger05]

Winviz has tubby talking shit at 90%

 

[Bedi]

jeebus

 

[LukeParkerno1]

How different would this test be if England batted through to day 2 instead of declaring?

There’s Bazball and then there’s stupidity we know which one that was

 

[largebus]

"Boring boring aussies"

 

[dumb]

The very defensive fields aren't too far away

 

[JP Sauce]

Uzi nearing 500 balls faced. Up to 494.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

matter of time you'd think

He's doesn't bowl because of injury apparantly

 

[Moonwatcher]

Root's a danger with the ball too.

 

[Nel_cats]

under 90 now

 

[philreich]

Green growing in confidence.......

 

[troybe]

We get it you’re the Balmy Army

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Get Moen on you campaigners

 

[swanssince2002]

Not turning on the TV since we are going well, will rely on you lot for the reactions

 

[CakeEater]

We get it you’re the Balmy Army

I keep hearing Parmy Army.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

If you Pee yourself, is that like a run out?

Just don’t get mankadded....

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yes your the Barmy Army

And you come to get pissed in the blazing Aussie sun
