Ashes Discussion

[Alec]

Love it how Australia is 3/24 and Google says we are still almost twice as likely to win as England

 

[Browny]

Can’t blame the curator, they’ve had a week of rain

 

[Battler]

I for one blame WA for this pitch and performance to date.

 

[ningnangnong]

Moving around like a vagabond out there.

Definitely keeps things interesting for a 'dead rubber'.

Yeah when they say that you would think they have had 150mm of rain. Barely had 2 inches in that week. There's not really an excuse for this pitch

I don’t mind Travis being positive but he has to be very selective and use his head.

 

[BroncsFan]

That's the exact kind of shot that everyone gets pissed off about with Head.

Got very lucky there

 

[Fitzy]

Next time the MCG are under a bit of pressure for their boring and shit pitches they’ll be chucking out a green pitch and begging for a pink nut.

Leave!

Hunt scored a great 140 of 220 total on this pitch leaving. He still got 19 boundaries in time.

This is great; I love this. Low scoring games are great.

29 runs off last 28 balls.

 

[ningnangnong]

Marnus is taking it to them.

 

[Fitzy]

This is a gutsy partnership considering our position.

 

[1910]

England have fallen into the trap touring teams would do in Perth. Just drop it there and it’ll go at 150 and nick off.

Momentum change because they’re expecting conditions to get wickets

 

[Sproj]

This is exactly how you have to play on a pitch like this, just trying to survive doesn't work unless you have elite powers of concentration.

 

[Fozz]

WTF Marnus????

 

[ningnangnong]

Absolute dog's breakfast from Marnus there.

 

[BroncsFan]

The **** was that Marnus

 

[Sproj]

He slipped, not much you can do about that. I wonder if Australia already has enough for an innings defeat.

 

[BroncsFan]

Did England get the ball changed again??

That's like 3 times in two tests... you're lucky to get 1 a series
