[Cricket] England vs Australia, Ashes 4th test - Old Trafford

[Titanic]

What's up with Jofra.. low 80's dibbly-dobblies??

 

[Machiavelli]

Agree with this. Great bloke, genuinely a Test class and ODI bowler and almost an all-rounder. But just worn out. Overton they say has height for this wicket. This explains the lack of Curran, who must count himself as unlucky not to get a game.

To add to this, Vic Marks saying on TMS that he expects Overton to do the 'workhorse' role.

 

[The Wizard]

Poor bowling and intensity from England so far, surprising.

 

[Titanic]

Broad strikes AGAIN!

It will be reviewed... but hopefully umpires call on leg stump??

 

[Titanic]

YES - clipping leg bail

28-2 (7 overs)

MS Harris lbw b Broad 13 (24b 1x4 0x6)

Here comes Smith... BOOoooooooooo!!!

Failed review and monstrous booing as you know who arrives at the crease

 

[jakarta]

Presumably Archer's pace might just up slightly now?

 

[Titanic]

The crowd ROARS... come on Jofra!

 

[The Wizard]

Two walls at the crease, vital period in the game.

TMS saying the wind is hampering the bowlers run up, and it can all go pear shaped if you try and bowl at maximum speed.

Listening they seem to be waiting for the wind to drop before they run up.

I find it hard to bowl when I've got wind.

Botham keeps calling Jofra 'Joffrey'. Hope he gets the boot from the Sky team soon, the mans a big headed fool.

 

[The Wizard]

These two looks untroubled and set, I hate Steve Smith

Easier to bowel though.

 

[The Wizard]

Terrible bowling.

Seems to have quite a big gut as well these days..................

Glad it wasn't just me that annoyed.

Indeed. I bet he struggles to send dick pics these days.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Mitchell Starc will feel he's got something to prove now he's finally UNLEASHED. Probably deliberate Aussie tactics to hold back the best til last for maximum effect.

 

[The Wizard]

Not sure if this is a road of a pitch or if these two are just making it look easy, possibly a mixture of both but the signs aren’t great. Looks a really flat track to me, not much happening.
