Smith gone for a duck
Thanks Stokes

See, Smith bowled through the gate first ball

England reeling on 211-6

Boland to Smith, OUT

bowled him! Nipping through the gate! 136kph, perfect length, wobble seam, off a little crack, nipping back through the gate and crashing into the top of middle! Classic Boland dismissal

Jamie Smith b Boland 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0

I’m @BTripz not Stokes

Whats the odds on Root getting out before he gets to 100?

Root is 102 not out first century in Australia

264-9 (66.4)

England are 264 for 9

300 up (for 9 wickets mind) but still from 5-2 this is a pretty decent score.

Archer 24 runs from 15 balls…

314-9, an audacious reverse sweep for 6 from Root

50 run partnership from 29 balls..

50 runs ago the 'taters were talking about England possibly declaring so that they could have a bowl at the Aussies…

Now they’re talking about seeing the day out and possibly batting some more tomorrow morning!!!

Archer 31 from 22, his highest ever test score…

England 321-9, about 5 minutes play left in the day..

Highest 10th wicket stand for England at the Gabba, 61 runs from 42 balls.

England 325-9

And stumps…

Well that was very shit to start with. A lot less shit after that. Followed by several more periods of shit. Ending with actually being good. Overall a lot less shit than it could have been.

I am working on becoming a cricket pundit.

Keep working at it. That way you become a lot less shit than how you have started :kissing_face::hugs:

Having listened to 1st 15 minutes, gone back to sleep until about 6am took kids to school then dog walking in the rain.
Finally had a perfect moment.
Earplugs in BBC Commentaryfor the final session.
Some snoozing, some applauding Root, some gawping when Jofra got going

Will all go to ratshit tomorrow needed to bat to lunch, needed those extra wickets to stay in

WE will not get past the first drinks break although there is the possibility of a declaration and putting the Aussies straight in.

Think Stokes learnt about 1st innings declarations last time round.

Last until the drinks break? Lol
Jofra’s 1st ball more like but any time they can squeeze out of the daylight the better. A new pink ball under lights is like Derek Underwood on a damp pitch.
Deadly
