*Official* 1st Test at the SWALEC Stadium

I've had enough entertainment for the day now thank you - wrap it up England

 

[BeeGee]

This is more like what I was hoping to see from the Aussies. Great stuff from Johnson.

 

[Primrose_D12]

I think Johnson may be trying to make up for his bowling figures for the match of 2/180.

Stokes and Anderson please.

Having a hit with the match lost hardly places him in a sporting hero category.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Hmm . . . wash out tomorrow not impossible?

Could this get interesting?

Roooooooot

 

[social]

Sums it up

 

[MW1304]

It's been a really pissy hour of bowling. They just decided to give up all their intensity, despite knowing Australia start batting again at 8.

Also Johnson the guilty pleasure is a glorious batsman.

Edit: Ah right. Delay ftw.

Will take what we can get at this stage tbh

 

[Howe_zat]

The most needlessly irritating hour of Test cricket since that time the Edgbaston floodlights were broken (and they kept taking them off for bad light in the middle of the day) comes to a close.

Wonder if they'll start putting the field out to Johnson now

Well done Root, man of the match now unless Moeen cleans up.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Haha Yorkies get the Yorkie.

 

[Johnners]

 

[GIMH]

Inabit Mitch lad

at least the worst fifty of all-time wasn't the top score tho

 

[Howe_zat]

Root's bowling average in the 30s now. Pretty much the new Sobers.

 

[Tangles]

Good effort MJ. Low order must give the top/middle order a serve again.

 

[Johnners]

Have decided I really dislike Lyth.

 

[grecian]

Stokes and Anderson please.

Cooks captaincy beating yours I'm afraid. Keep the spinners on, rest the fast bowlers. Gotta say Cook has been on the money here, would have taken Root off after that first over.
