3rd Ashes Test England v Australia July 6-10 1930hrs @ Headingley

[Around the Wicket]

Cummins is pondering who the kid from the crowd with glasses is fielding on the boundary, probably call for security

Jokes aside, Australia are in strife once Lyon retires

 

[grumbleguts]

If it swings and seams it spins

So the new ball spins does it?

 

[Billyc]

Slipping away here. Cummins has no faith in Murphy

 

[grumbleguts]

All over I’d say.

Not yet, we still need 7 wickets.

 

[Outtatym]

For the criticism of Boland, it’s appalling captaincy to have a bloke who bowls outside off and not a single player between point and mid off…

Completely agree

 

[Westend]

No we are not Murphy is a capable replacement

 

[The King!]

Especially if the captain never bowls the spinner at all

 

[Hawksboy72]

This is poor captaincy from Cummings. Need to throw something different at England.
Should totally pack the off-side and bowl a 6th stump line.
Saving runs isn't the issue need to take Wickets.

Based on what?

 

[davoss]

Feels like this period before lunch decides the winner

Murphy has a lot of potential

Don’t get this. Bring on Murph this game is over in 15 mins

 

[Mr Experience]

Pointless having Murphy in the side

 

[showusyacunningt]

No faith in Murphy at this stage confirmed

Put a few on the fence and get Murphy to flight it, Brook for one won't be able to resist.

Yep why else do they open with spinners in Asia

 

[Peter Bixley]

Slipping away here. Cummins has no faith in Murphy

Yep. Should have been bowling now into Starc's footholes.

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

To be fair Murph should be wearing prescription sport glasses instead of Library assistant glasses, Doing himself no favours.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Why was Murphy picked?

 

[CakeEater]

Not sure why you wouldnt bowl murphy here over cummins

 

[Plugger35]

Pretty sure they would be going to Lyon now if he was playing, Cummins not showing much faith in Rick Moranis.

 

[eddiesmith]

So Cummins gives Starc protection and now brings himself on with protection on the off side, funny that..,

 

[Jimthegreat]

So the new ball spins does it?

Older balls seams and swing to. Warnie always said if it seams it spins. Not sure about swing.

 

[The King!]

Head might bowl before Murphy at this rate

Kunheman looks okay and so does Murphy
