I can't believe they're sending that poor cunt out to bat. What's the point?

Aussie tough...

 

[Del Woppio]

Could do himself some real damage, absolutely braindead for the sake of a couple of runs

 

[Wolftone]

I'd say Lyon has volunteered. Good man.

 

[pagey]

Fair play Lyon, he'd be a hero if it was an English player.

 

[Wolftone]

15 added since he came out to bat.
Brain dead bowling by England at the end here.

 

[sycophantia]

Gone from brainless batting to brainless bowling.
Your bowling at a number 11, who is crippled, surely you bowl fast, straight and full.

 

[Del Woppio]

Actually embarrassing how we've bowled at him

 

[jd1981]

Yep bowl in the foot holes make him move his feet

 

[Wolftone]

Wonder who the first England batsman to be injured will be?

 

[jd1981]

371 to win done it before I’d be amazed if we got within 50 of it.

Think we only need about 2.5 an over so we could just duck under all the short stuff and run em all

 

[Del Woppio]

Yuk

 

[jd1981]

Lucky not to be 2 down

 

[Wolftone]

Outclassed.

 

[pagey]

That's a brilliant ball by starc!

 

[Dinowolf]

Wonder who the first England batsman to be injured will be?

We already have two injured, Pope and Stokes.
Pope was told that if he didn't come out and field in the Aussie 2nd innings then he wouldn't be able to bat at 3.

 

[Del Woppio]

Hell of a ball, though when you actually try and get a batsman out rather than shorting them into a bored submission that's what can happen

 

[jd1981]

Yeah we’re getting nowhere this target the gulf between the bowling attacks being exposed.

 

[jd1981]

As said game was lost yesterday mornings debacle.

I don't think it helps we have our seriously quick bowlers out injured at the moment.

Archer, Wood, Stone and our spinner Leach.

That's a full bowling attack apart from Broad/ Anderson.
