The Ashes 2013/14

Another gift for swan

Yep. Thanks to some very stupid batting we will now here about how swann is back in form

 

[Sproj]

That was one of the worst shots I've ever seen from Bailey.

Seriously, have the Poms earned any of the wickets to fall so far ?

On a day when we could have batted the series away from them, we've gifted the Poms 5 wickets to help them get back into the series.

this is our current side ... we've jumped england and bullied them in the first two tests but we're still a very average side atm and we're going to have some ugly moments during this series and in the near future imo ... our glaring deficiencies have been papered over thus far by some big individual performances from Johnson, Clarke, Warner and Haddin ..

Our middle order batting remains a huge weakness

If we get 300 on the board, we are well on top. We will get heaps more out of this pitch than England will.

yeah I thought 350 at the start of the day would be par ... if we can scrounge 300 from here that would be something

 

[jarro65]

353 is the average first innings score at the WACA

 

[Sproj]

These two need to be there to at least 300.

I really don't think the number of runs we get is that important.

It's more about the time we spend at the crease..

Remember, if we draw the last three tests then we win back the urn.

Smith batting well. Really hope he goes on with it. Pom bowlers just haven't got their length right.

 

[Sproj]

Yeah that's true, the Poms certainly don't deserve to have five wickets. Glad Haddin got through the early period where he looked horrid.

true but this test is our big chance to retain the ashes right here and now ... the poms are like fish out of water batting on this pitch and we need to take advantage ..

 

[Browny]

We only need to draw the next 2

Regardless this test won't be a draw

He sure is. I came on to say beads that I must admit your boy smith is standing up. I'm impressed.

You seem rather confident ?

 

[Socnorb]

Smith batting like a proper batsman. Good to see him leaving and hitting the bad ball for 4.

Always had it in him.
