Root & Bairstow taking the convicts apart.
Root & Bairstow taking the convicts apart.
Classic test match day, Australia should be ashamed of themselves, not prepared to knuckle down and battle through the morning session. It's always been the way in England. Battle and make hay later in the day..... Even England have had to battle but now the runs are coming thick and fast.
LT, you should speak for yourself as this side don't deserve to speak for you
Exactly.Shit!
I'd have dropped Voges myself and kept M Marsh..... Senseless selection in my book....but glad they did
Must be a tabloid headline in there somewhere.
Aussies Rooted by a Broad sword?
Joe Root you beauty. Well deserved.
Warner looks like he might explode with anger.
That's his default expression. He has fielded well today.Originally Posted by daveboy
Warner's a proper dick. And a dick with a bad 'tache too.
Boycott summed it up well 'lemmings leaping off a cliff' this is such fun.
Australia 1st Innings 60 All Out.
Yorkshire 1st Innings 195 for 1.
England being cautious with such a slender lead, bringing on a nightwatchman to see the day through.....must have been the short straw.
Ideally, we'll get the shacklebangers running around in the sun for most of the day tomorrow, then let 'em have a bat late in the afternoon.
A lead of 214 on day one.
What a day, rounded off by some nice byes and pies from Hazlewood.
Morning wally!
Well played Mark Wood in the final over. A great way to finish a terrible day for Australia.
They did make England look good and Bairstow should have gone long before he made 50. You can only play what is in front of you and England did it very well.
The convicts just have not got the skill set to play well in this country when they are faced with bowling of the standard of Stuart Broad on his home ground, and the injured genius of Joe Root.
England still need another 19 boundaries to equal the aussie first innings ....

Seeing a bunch of mouthy arrogant twats bought down to size is quite uplifting
"They won't even get close" - Steve Smith
Never thought I'd see the day when Australia make Scotland look like a top tier test match team.
And now a word from the Australian captain, Michaela Clarke. Michael? Michael?
"I want my mummy!"
My my, look at everyone come out to play.
Anyway, the Aussies were, and are shite. we have a problem. I was reading that we took a tour squad of 90 over. 90? WTF?
15 players, 15:coaches and support staff. So that's 60 fucking wags and kids on tour. These asses didn't go over to play cricket they went to have a jolly tour of UK with the odd day or two of cricket thrown in. It's shades of Lara fucking Bingle all over again.
