2019 3rd Ashes Test 22-27 August Headingley

He does bowl like that...consistently

I know. He's been pretty good so far but also our least threatening bowler this series. Seems to be striving for pace and has never been the smartest bowler going around.

 

[Pee Tear Griffin]

We're in the box seat still. Get one and the rest will fall like a deck of cards.

 

[Doggy doo doo]

Sooooooooooo depresssssssssssssssing

 

[Blue1980]

Paine is easily one of the worst captains to have worn the baggy green, if not THE worst

How’s this his fault?

 

[k31th]

Yes. But the quicks have become an enormous run leak. Now is the time to try him, well maybe a couple of overs ago.

I agree.

 

[swansfan51]

Which is worst: Paine's batting, keeping, or captaincy?

 

[yakka man]

GOAT wins us this game or we lose it.

 

[The King!]

this is better

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Lyon turning it a fair way.

 

[hoopla]

Thank god for the goat.

 

[Eagleboy68]

Runs have stopped for 1 over lol

 

[Plugger35]

Lyon looking more dangerous than any of the pace bowlers.

 

[The King!]

Which is worst: Paine's batting, keeping, or captaincy?

his surname hurts a bit

 

[Tassieboy]

Great bowling from Lyon.

 

[swanssince2002]

If anybody is gonna get us home it’s gonna be the GOAT today

 

[hoopla]

Can we have lyon from both ends?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

What i would give for a wicket

 

[The King!]

lets see spin at both ends

 

[passmark]

Hopefully that's the last time Pattinson gets picked for Australia.
Modern day Rod McCurdy.

That's what they said at the start of the day.

 

[Financialpanther]

Come now - the worst one was the one that put him in this position surely.

 

[Park cricketer]

Yeah get Patto off. Again, what would people say if Starc bowled like this?

Bairstow's innings has been pretty streaky, the bowlers just need to stay calm and avoid trying too much.

Bairstow is extremely dodgy against balls directed at his stumps, gets bowled through the gate and lbw so often in his career. You have to feel for Australia because the pitch has flattened out and the sun is beating down, but the new ball while it's brand new was their chance to be super accurate and make serious inroads into this English line up. But Hazlewood was a bit legside-ish with his line and Cummins was just too short and didn't attack the stumps at all.

 

[WillHayward]

This is good. Lyon to tie up one end and heap the pressure on.

Then Cummins at the other end to get the wickets.

We need one wicket before lunch and its all over.

 

[The King!]

wicket time

 

[demondavey]

The worst part is Atherton getting all chirpy again.

He is good value Athers. Knows his stuff.
