Well Robinson does have a first-class century to his name. He can score runs when he bats sensibly.

EDIT- But not like that.

Going to be quick now.

Goodbye Ashes. Both games have been pretty close.

The objective now has to be avoiding a 0-5 whitewash.

This is the most England thing ever, looked impossible, got us all hopeful then fell just short.

At least it won’t be those 15 runs that twunt Lyon got.

You’re right especially when Robinson plays a stupid shot like that.
It was disappointing. In county cricket he has made runs. If I was in his situation I would set myself up to defend and wait. The match isn't lost. And after all the skill and effort that has gone on before I would owe that to the team.

I was just starting to get my hopes up there for a bit. Had a hope that Broad and Robinson could nurdle the runs but thats it now. They nearly turned over ridiculous odds. I think we lost this match when the Aussies passed 400, we were always going to lose after that, it was just the margin and the way we went down that was uncertain.

Looks like the unsportsmanlike play of the Aussies will prove crucial. This will be talked about for a long, long time.
