The ashes 2023

[Voll Blau]

Don't know why you'd review any appeal the bowler themselves doesn't fancy?

All the talk about Bazball and whether we've been too cavalier but we'd probably be 2-0 up if we took all our chances. Got to get the basics right.

Or as that wit Glen McGrath is now calling it 'cazball'.  

 

Ha ha ha ha ha

 

Ha ha

 

Ha

Mitch Marsh ffs. 

[RonnieTodger]

This has turned around pretty quickly 

[Izzy]

How long until the new ball

To paraphrase Jimmy Ormond - he's not even the best batter in his family!

[RonnieTodger]

****ing hell

[Lako42]

How is Head still there? He sounded like he'd never batted before when I was listening to TMS when he first came in. 

 

 

How do you destroy that top order like that and they come unstuck like this.

The ball not moving as much and, quite frankly, a healthy dose of luck. Marsh could have been out a half dozen times given his shot selection.

[purpleronnie]

This is all very Australian.

[Lionator]

Great batting you have to say but this is very worrying. A bowler down, an ineffective spinner, basically a three man attack, one of which may get injured at anytime. 

[SickoDicko]

Marsh dropped on 12 as well makes it even worse he looks like he'll get 200

Dare I say we don't seem ruthless enough, or will that require me getting abuse..lol.

[Super_horns]

We’ve let the Aussies off big time at the moment .

 

Typical that someone who hasn’t played for years scores a century !

Ever-obliging England...

[ARTY_FOX]

It's become rather easy.

[StanSP]

Great comms there.

 

'Ben Stokes needs a partnership-breaker now'

 

Next ball, Marsh is caught out! 

 

Very much needed that. 

 

One wicket brings two, need an quick one straight after tea.

[RonnieTodger]

Thank **** for that!

I'm claiming that 

[Voll Blau]

Shame it was on the stroke of tea. Was buzzing for some panto booing for Carey.

glad I refreshed. Watching on stream so a slight delay. You just won me a bet. 

[EastAnglianFox]

300+ will still be a heck of a result for Australia given the first session

[AKCJ]

This English team has a habit of taking their foot completely off the gas.

 

Shite, potentially game losing session. Again.

 you're welcome?

 

Commission? 

[leicsmac]

Stokes shouldn't have gone anywhere near Marsh when he got out there, much less give him a low five.

 

The Aussies wouldn't grant him the same courtesy if they knew there was something to play for in the match (unlike Sunday, when they could afford to clap him off because they knew it was job done).
