*Official* First Test at Trent Bridge

[Spikey]

I find 15C cold. Have never seen a Sydney day where the maximum is less than 15C.

it literally happened the other day

 

[Burgey]

15C is great weather because you don't need a coat but also don't need air con on in the car

Reckon the perfect temp in England is about what it was that arvo we went and saw the Whites play.

TMS saying there's a thunder storm on the way.

Dunno if you've been to England, but anything around 30 can be death because of the humidity, saps your energy and will to live

'tis true, and has driven my partner to take a siesta, thereby enabling me to watch this game at last, though I've clearly not chosen the best session

Today has been like yesterday - batting hard against decent bowling and putting bad balls away. Australia scores quicker than England generally anyway, just he way the two teams are playing ATM.

Australia bowled better imo. England aren't straight enough, they're still bowling for the outside edge when there's no carry.

Got better this past few overs though.

Gotta justify that silly third man fielder somehow

Six of England's wickets fell to outside edges anyway though.

The maximum for the 9th was less than 15C

 

[GIMH]

Need to give Finn a try just for an over

 

[ajdude]

now double it

good stuff young lad

 

[Spikey]

let's get one thing straight, 3rd man is a great position and should be used more

 

[Burgey]

Australia bowled better imo. England aren't straight enough, they're still bowling for the outside edge when there's no carry.

Got better this past few overs though.

Anderson is the best bowler in this series, especially at home, but I actually think Australia's attack is far more even than England's. I know Broad can be devastating, but he is hot and cold and Finn is very much a work in progress. Yesterday, every Aussie bowler was all over the batsmen. Hasn't been the case so far here, and it's one area in this series where I reckon we have an edge.

 

[MrPrez]

Cluck, wish I was a betting man. Eyed the 6-1 odds so hard earlier. Now Aus are 1.5-1 favourites
