The Ashes, Second Test Australia v England @ The Adelaide Oval d/n 16-20 December

[Jimthegreat]

We've lost the night watchman and the walking wicket, so was expected. Just hope we don't lose any more in a hurry.

Kinda feel for Harris.

I don’t the bloke is lucky to be playing

 

[to1994]

This is usually the period in the match where England lose the plot. Have a good period but lose the intensity within a few overs and the game slips away.

Odds suggest the same thing will happen but maybe with Ben Stokes leading the team he'll offer a point of difference.

Dropped and given a LBW lifeline... Gee Smiffy was lucky...

Great start by England, gee the ball nipping around here...

 

[ABAB]

Kinda feel for Harris.

Why? He drove at a ball without any foot movement and nick the ball.....poor technique just like his defensive shot while his foot is on the move.

 

[RAPPA]

So Root hit in the nuts.

So a bowler has 10 bad innings bowling but then as soon as he has 1 ok one all is forgotten and his place in the team is indisputable?

Last time starc had a good game, wade was entrenched in the team and burns was opening.

This would be more accurate if it was actually accurate.

Go back to tests 1/2 in the India series and he had 9-158.

It’s not that f**ken hard to use the internet

Root gone for scans to see if it’s still there

Poms wont make 100

You have a bat Marnus. Use it.

 

[ABAB]

Even Anderson looks much quicker on this wicket.

 

[Headless]

Missed that - what did they say about positive COVID case?

 

[getthefooty]

All they see is the ball hitting the wicket, clearly some don't know the ball need to hit in line unless the batsmen isn't offering a shot.

Yep, not sure what the people who thought it was ‘plumb’ we’re watching tbh. Immediately looked outside the line or very close to, you could see 2 and a half stumps ffs

As the great man Bill Lawry would say - 'Its all happening here...'

 

[1990crow]

Ellen DeGeneres seen for first time in weeks in other news.

 

[outabounds]

Wow so Malan was interviewed by a positive journo last night after play, yet he is clear to play on and Cummins could not. Makes no sense

Unfortunately he is very good mates with Justin Langer from the same club in Perth, they pick Harris next test they are having a laugh.

They sound like the best of mates

Langer farewells 'frustrating' Harris | cricket.com.au

Opening batsman leaves for Victoria amid interesting comments from Warriors coach

""His performances have been mediocre with flashes of brilliance," Langer told The West Australian newspaper.
"Marcus played more than 40 matches for WA and scored just four centuries."

They might be retreiving them from the upper abdomen

Finger should've gone up with that one, looked plumb live. Only millimetres outside the line too..

It didn't look plumb live imo, it looked like he could have been hit outside the line, the umpire wasn't 100% sure so he made the right call, giving it not out.

It was very similar to Robinson's LBW yesterday, I thought the umpire should have given that one not out as well to be honest.

ABC and BBC cancelled their coverage today due to a case in the media ranks

 

[Pippen94]

Starc has also been rubbish for most of the last 12 months, if not longer. Plus he's hardly Warne or mcgrath, who youd wait through a few series of bad form for him to come good because the payoff is great. even at peak form he's just pretty good.

Looked class above replacements in 1st innings

 

[ABAB]

Same as the one that was given out for Smith, looked hitting outside live and replay showed it was umpire call so 50/50 call which can go either way.

Wow, that's unfortunate. Thank you.
