*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

[sledger]

it's a pleasant surprise, are we meant to just wallow in our depression and turn into Backlash?

Yeah, know your role and shut up.

 

[MW1304]

Finn just doesn't know where he's putting the ball, all over the place. Him and the ball.

 

[Ruckus]

'Absolute turd' should be the cricinfo "In a nutshell" description for Finn

 

[morgieb]

Scary thing about Agar is that he's playing real cricket shots, not just getting lucky. England have bowled rank to him mind you.

 

[Cabinet96]

Botham actually does make a good point. If Broad isn't going to bowl, why is he on the field. Being off the field doesn't delay when he can bowl once fit.

 

[Spikey]

highest stand of the innings!

Agar now has a higher score against England than PJ Hughes has ever achieved

 

[Spark]

This is hilarious

 

[Burgey]

So much angst from Botham. Love it. Such a ****.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

what a shot

 

[uvelocity]

botham choking on his bile making this rearguard all the more entertaining

 

[Expressway76]

This reminds of Broad in his "enforcer" period.

 

[straw man]

Good batting by Agar

Finn is an imbecile

 

[Pothas]

It's gone long beyond almost embarrassing Beefy.

 

[Cricket Brain]

Oh wow Finn surely you've learnt your lesson by now.

 

[Bahnz]

Ha, great rally this from Aus. Almost got it back down to a 2nd innings shoot out now.

 

[King Pietersen]

Jesus ****ing Christ. Why is he still bowling short pies? It's obvious that it's not working. Pathetic bowling, and awful captaincy. Letting Australia back into the game.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

whats the highest debut score at 11?

 

[Furball]

so pretty much cos you're a POM its just what you want. In a neutral game does the batsmen ever lose the botd?

I would be saying exactly the same if it was an English batsman.

 

[Backlash]

One innings and two batting collapses already. I wonder how many more we'll see over the next 10 matches. I say 15.

If this England series ends up a real flogging will they cancel the return series?

 

[Ruckus]

this is unbelievable
