13 off his first over - sweet
Bairstow in trouble here, looks like his ankle. Fuck, we don’t need that.
I don’t want to curse it but we look such a different side with Roy in, Ashes opener nailed on.
50 up for Roy - decent innings so far
Roy 50 up, 53 from 50 balls
95-0 after 16 overs
England are going at about 6 an over, just doesn’t feel like it.
Starc getting some tap here.
Makes your heart bleed
Steve Smith getting some pelters now. That 3rd six was mahoosive, almost out of the ground
21 off of the over…
Brilliant bit of fielding by Maxwell and then straight over his head for 6 and then another
And another - shove that up your arse Smith
21 off the over - stick to the batting mate
100 to get 33 overs to do it
Don’t fuck it up
Why did I say don’t fuck it up
Why on did he review that? Absolutely plumb, Roy must have known that.
Root is on a promise - he isn’t hanging around
Aussies are chucking pies
It is brutal stuff out there
I said it would be easy.
I said it all along.

Roy out, wanting to use the review but Bairstow had already used it, he’s not happy. And so he shouldn’t be, he got nothing on that at all. Appalling decision from the umpire there.
85 from 65
Bairstows decision bit us on the arse there but Roy should have told him it was plumb so his fault as well
But seriously, why were Australia appealing? There was no noise whatsoever…
