  • 2019 Ashes, England (etc.) versus Australia

    First day, first test.
    Australia 284 all out (Steve Smith 100+)
    England 10 - 0
    England's bowlers struggled on the first day.
    There's too much confusion, I can't get no relief

    You say that but if it wasn't for that pesky smith... was 35-3 at one point.

    Shame anderson had to go off injured too.

    Need the batting to carry us here

        Decent reply from England today 267-4.
        Steve Smith dragged Aus to that total (284) yesterday, otherwise we'd be well on top.
        Opportunity for England to take a 1-0 lead, methinks.
        Shame Jimmy Anderson hasn't put in an appearance yet.

          Australia got lucky with the ball change today too, they only managed to reach their total because the ball went flat and was doing very little for the English bowlers on a decent batting pitch for numerous overs. That had just started for Australia and they managed to get the ball changed and it behaved like a new ball, doing quite a lot, which is where they got the wickets in those overs

                  Australia 231 for 4 at lunch, day four.
                  Smith 98 not out, Wade 15 not out.
                  England bowlers and fielders floundering.
                  Australia lead by 141.
                  Woakes hasn't bowled today - injured?

                      Think Australia will put England in to bat for the last 10 overs of today and hope to get a couple of wickets, pitch hasn't been doing much, but Ali's been a massive MASSIVE disappointment as he always seems to be, and Lyon will likely be much better

                      Try and stay in and bat the day out especially with weather interruptions expected, a draw's the best England can hope for now, NOT going to score 400 full stop, never mind in a day's cricket
