Ashes 2015 - 5th Test - The Oval, Day 4

[Showbags]

Watching Sky during the Trent Bridge match, the commentators talked a bit about Marsh being dropped as they couldn't understand it. They all think he's got a bit about him with the ball.

I'll be surprised if he doesn't get picked up by a county team. Probably as a batting at 8 bowler.

Its county cricket. He could probably open if he wanted to.

Good to see Siddle do well.

Consistent line and length is greatly undervalued by our selectors.

Really want us to grind the poms into the Oval tonight. I wouldn't put them back in when we get these last 2 wickets. Fill out boots and put them back in when we're 600+ plus runs ahead.

Agreed. A Warner special would be good and a few runs for Buck and Pup too.

Monday will probably be a washout and Sunday a possibility of only one, two at best sessions.

Game will could be a draw if anyone at all remembers that they are playing test cricket.

I didn't think there was any rain around for the duration of the test.

It's a beautiful day today but BBC weather yesterday and it's the same today tells me that rain is a-coming.

 

[Anzacpaul]

Send them back in.

 

[Costanza_]

Some frustrating loose stuff here. Bring Lyon on.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Come one Aussies, clean this tail up.

 

[ROOTA#6]

Send them back in.

Gotta bowl em out first

 

[Bucking Beads]

I'd have started with Lyon today.

 

[Andronicus]

Annoying partnership here.

Annoying partnership here.

Not for the networks

Johnno on a hattrick!!

Johnno on a hattrick!!

Give him the new ball!!!

Follow on for sure. Rain in the forecast, bowled less than 50 overs and only 10ish this morning, and no next test to worry about in terms of bowler workload.

Will this be the first time Aus has enforced the follow on since the VVS Laxman game?

I think we enforced it on boxing day v Sri Lanka a few years back

First time Clarkes ever done it apparently.

 

[La Dolce Vita]

Just given England a chance to get back into the game.

En forcing the follow on is the most over rated tactic in cricket

 

[Rustin Cohle]

TYPICAL CLARKE PROTECTING HIS AVERAGE BY NOT BATTING AGAIN!11!
