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

[Sir_Loin]

It's ok, England aren't winning the next 2 matches if they win this one.

Our top order has shat itself so far wouldn’t be betting the house on that

 

[The King!]

Agree, be nice to keep the foot down, but we will be fine series wise

 

[frankrizzo]

We should have gone for neser over murphy if they dont trust him to bowl in tight games.

 

[Tugga27]

This. If we had a lead we’d bowl him

He should be on now.
We have a lead.

 

[DaRick]

Not bowling Murphy when nothing else is working is borderline petulance.

 

[Retzlaff]

Gee I didn’t know Todd was a gun fielder, obviously picked for that.

And Warner is picked for his first slip fielding apparently

 

[hawkman]

Not often you lose a game due to captaincy but this one is looking that way

Both innings has been poor

 

[Belnakor]

anyone losing confidence? or just me

They should piss it in from here. So not sure what you mean.

 

[Balls In]

This is why a fast bowler captain has knobs. Take a back seat for a bit Pat, upset things. The idea of a spinner with a fast bowler bowling short - why not?

 

[SkittleCats]

Say what you want about Cummins and the rest of the bowlers here, but if our top order hadnt shit the bed we'd have 350-400 on the board here and this game, and the series, would be over.

 

[Peter Bixley]

The ball has stopped moving. Just can't get a break.

 

[Around the Wicket]

It's ok, England aren't winning the next 2 matches if they win this one.

Na Australia's batting unit just need to click once and score 450+ and its series.

 

[Brad Goodman]

They’re strolling towards victory here.

 

[Scorpus]

WinViz has us far too likely to win. I'd give us a 5% chance

 

[Foucault1989]

Not bowling Murphy when nothing else is working is borderline petulance.

It stems from a fear of going for runs but I'd argue it is just as likely to get a wicket or two.

 

[Sir_Loin]

He should be on now.
We have a lead.

Nah gone

 

[Outtatym]

I miss Gary

 

[MJG14]

Not looking good.

 

[Belnakor]

26% chance for australia is bloody generous. Im thinking more like 2.6%.

 

[The King!]

They should piss it in from here. So not sure what you mean.

I thought we might roll through them 30 runs ago

 

[grumbleguts]

Commentators rampart barracking now.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

What you’re 4/240 and only make 263, that’s the killer.

I can maybe give that a pass, it is however why I said I’d play Neser over Boland though. However Lab and Smith being brainless fruitloops in the second innings was even worse

 

[Plugger35]

Winviz is backing the Poms to win.

Winviz was probably out drinking pints with the Barmy Army last night though.

 

[Bedi]

It's ok, England aren't winning the next 2 matches if they win this one.

if we lose this I'll be slightly concerned that could happen. A Broad, Anderson, Wood, Woakes bowling lineup could hurt us

 

[Speck]

Here we go
