The summer of test cricket - Ashes 2023

[Muteswan]

Wood has bowled very well and very fast.

Rarely let's England down, should be first pick when not injured...

Fvck me, Jonny butter fingers at it again.

Odd review from Smith that, a very good session for England indeed

 

[TheLoneRanger]

That's one weird review by Smith.

85/4

Once a cheat always a cheat.

Just the morning England needed.

I’d forgotten Mitch Marsh existed

 

[TheLoneRanger]

Very good morning for England.

Lunch 91/4

If he hadn't dropped Head, we wouldn't have had the Smith wicket...

I was a little surprised with Pope out that they didn't bring Foakes in and bump everybody one place up the order. The decision to bring in Woakes and Wood has paid off so far, let's hope picking Moeen also works out.

Exactly like the Lords match. Anderson dropped Head, and next ball Smith was out.

I'd pick Foakes every time as the wicketkeeper. There's not much between their test batting average, if you're comparing their batting - but Foakes is by far the better wicketkeeper ...

Foakes. 32.2

Bairstow. 36.88

Best England can hope for is an ashes draw imo

 

[Risc]

Hard lines to the Scots who just missed out on qualifying for the world cup, losing to The Netherlands.

One day, Wales will get the same opportunity hopefully!

 

[sainthelens]

Even if they end up chasing 350, the outfield is that quick, and if they go at it, it wouldn't take long to pull that back.

 

[TheLoneRanger]

Tremendous ton from Mitch Marsh.

 

[Skippyjack]

Same old England, always choking
