*Official* 3rd Test at Edgbaston

[smash84]

come on, now get a hattrick finneh

 

[NUFAN]

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

(applies to Lyth too)

 

[smash84]

oh, well bowled finn, well bowled

 

[Cabinet96]

Smarsh to bat 4 at Trent Bridge? Could bat him at 3 actually.

 

[Zinzan]

Wonderful cricket England!

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

(applies to Lyth too)

May as well apply to Clarke at this stage too.

 

[NUFAN]

I never conquered, rarely came
16 (in the first innings) just held such better days

 

[Zinzan]

What a blessing the Wood injury turned out to be. Think this wicket would have suited him, but not as much as Finn.

 

[Cabinet96]

Btw, isn't picking someone who's played a decent amount of County stuff meant to mean they don't edge everything outside off that moves an inch?

 

[NUFAN]

May as well apply to Clarke at this stage too.

It's Adam's song boi.

 

[Niall]

Picking people because they scored runs against the West Indies never the greatest plan, just ask Ravi Bopara.

I'd have gone with Voges pre series though so can't criticise the selectors to much, how many people can Shaun Marsh replace next test though

 

[Son Of Coco]

Had a feeling at tea we'd go the same way as we did at our lunch break in the first innings - i.e lose quick wickets afterwards. Well done boys. We deserve to lose this by an innings, the question is whether we'd actually have what it takes to drum up some embarrassment about the whole situation.

Surely someone will do something. I'm off to bed before it's England.

 

[morgieb]

It's Adam's song boi.

I recognise that. Although I didn't properly link the song title and the lyrics to the players lol.

Voges is just your classic WACA bat from the last 10 years not named Michael Hussey. The state have routinely been a disappointment before this last year as the team which featured good bats on their day are just all inconsistent. That's M.North, S.Marsh, A.Voges, L.Ronchi etc.

 

[Spikey]

will warner do a watson and join in with the collapse or will he #doubleit

 

[NUFAN]

This Warner innings is feeling heaps like Slats 123 vs England at the SCG where he scored like 2/3 of the runs.

 

[GIMH]

Quite a pleasing scorecard

What's with Warner? He batting on a different track?

 

[Uppercut]

Quite a pleasing scorecard

What's with Warner? He batting on a different track?

Finn's line+length have been terrible to the lefty.

 

[wpdavid]

Has a captain ever retired mid-series?

Vaughan might have done in 2008, but I think we were 2 down with one to play.

Denness dropped himself in 1974/5 of course, but he did play a couple of tests later.

 

[Kirkut]

Australia will have to replicate something similar to Dhoni-Kohli partnership (2012 India vs England 4th test).
