Commentator forgot we already took the new ball, he's on the ball.
I keep hearing this but no one seems to be able to back it up with a breakdown of wickets...
In reality, its probably(no definitely) a bit of everything. Top, middle and lower order wickets.

Great captains try shiat, shiat captains captain like their playing a computer game, Paine is one of those, Smith was too IMO.

England bowlers prefer around the wicket with the new ball, what do we do?
If only we still had Clarke. Added bonus would mean he can’t commentate

Lyon will get some zip here, good move with the new ball.

Just take a bite
Oh just **** off already, what an absolute bullshit artist.
Paine is the worst tactical captain I have ever seen

Lyon bowling with a very new ball... are we trying to deliberately lose this match? *sigh*
he might get a little bit of bounce and bite, but a seamer will get a lot more value with a new ball than an older one.

If we get a 200 lead we'll win.
Just look at him playing and missing every other ball. Never looked comfortable at the wicket and a good third of his runs have been off the outside edge to third man.

There's a long way to go in this series, and indeed in this test, but I'm getting a real feel of England's 2013/14 tour (except us on the receiving end). This has to turn around tomorrow or the tour could careen out of control.
Do you honestly think this is our best 11?
I'd replace Bancroft with Harris. Harris has more ticker for an Ashes series.
I'd replace Paine with either Wade or Carey and reinstate Smith as captain. Paine's no good..
I'd replace Siddle and Pattinson with Starc and Hazelwood.
There's 4 changes i think would make a huge difference. And I would have had Kurtis Patterson in the squad too. He'd be back uo to Wade in case he failed this test(which so far he has). Patterson has some ticker about him too, but we just pick flaky batsman who crumble under pressure. Need some heart for an Ashes series. Oh, and a swing bowler!!!
Who cares about averages. Carey's a fighter. He's made for an Ashes series. Harris has more ticker than Bancroft who looked completely lost and was dealing with the ban issues still. Starc is a no brainer. Was the best bowler at the WC and is our only genuine swing bowler, and we replace him with a guy who hasn't played a test in years??? Crazy!! And Hazelwood is an upgrade on Siddle.
Who the f*** is running the show over there?? Just some weird selections.
