At least we can focus on important things again, now that the Ashes have gone.
On the bright side, imagine if wed batted yesterday when conditions were better for bowling

Well, according to Gower, yesterday the ball was doing too much yet today it’s doing juts enough, make of that what you will.

64-8

Wtf

Useless cunts

Archer unlucky there but why leave your bat up when you’re ducking :man_shrugging:

66-9

66-9

Dear god

Here comes one of our best batsmen - Leach

How the fuck can you be top scorer with 12

I’m going to find someone to persecute - this is too stressful

67 all out. embarrassing

TBF Australia have bowled really well and taken their chances.

BUT England have been guilty of some very poor shot selection.

Lowest total against Australia since 1948 :lou_facepalm_2:

Bring out the sandpaper.

Harris has already beaten the score of most of the England players with 3 shots.

Here is one stat

6 England batters scored fewer runs than they gave away in overthrows yesterday

Warner gone for a 2nd ball duck, 10-1

Lead by 118 runs

Harris gone, Leach gets his first, “not a great shot”, 36-2

Lead by 148

Actually, that does make sense. Various former players were saying yesterday that the ball had done too much, meaning only a batsman of Steve Smith’s class would have got an edge on a lot of the deliveries bowled.

That said, Woakes and Stokes bowled horribly - none of the Aussies had the decency to do that.

Has anyone ever “got it” at the start of his career than Jofra?

I held back, I refrained, I’ve never done the “mentally weak” snipe, I bet you all feel like right little snidey bellends.
That is all.
