Lyon to make 50 here.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Get Moeen off. He's a perfectly ****e bowler ffs.

awta

 

[Spikey]

Lyon has really improved his batting so why start playing shots

it's never really been bad tbh. unlucky to be still stuck at 11

 

[Son Of Coco]

That was a great over.

Knew that second one was out. Back leg, looked so much closer than the 1st, surprised the appeal wasn't massive

Mate is that your golf blog in your signature? I assume it is.

It is indeed. Not been updated for ages!

Lyon's head is a very curious shape

More old ball than pitch. Old ball has led to Broad and Starc easy runs alike.

England won't get to bat with one

Yeah, but this ball is very old indeed and we're watching England's 4th & 5th bowlers.

True enough, although I still think the wicket looks to have improved slightly as the game's gone on. I know it's hard to think that after yesterday's debacle, but Australia really were awful and Finn bowled quite beautifully.

I just had a quick read, very good! How's the quest going?

 

[jan]

Just got home and its still not over?

Not sure how I feel about now that I have to watch it...

 

[ajdude]

well we all know how good starc is with the second new ball.

Commentators doing a Lyon is better than Moeen thesis, shocking the cricket community.

Good defensive technique

Longer England are in the field, more nervous they get

I don't expect Oz to win but at least make the opposition fight and given Jimmeh is crocked, best thing is to bat time as England are only left with 2 regular test wicket takers

Unnecessary sarcasm really, it was more a why Lyon is better piece.

 

[aussie tragic]

Clarke missed another opportunity to declare....could have had a couple of wkts before lunch

 

[Son Of Coco]

Starc has really enjoyed facing Finn this innings. Not afraid to drive at all.

 

[King Pietersen]

Thanks mate. Still not done it, but only played once in the last 3 or so weeks, been so busy, got a big house move coming up so been getting stuff ready for that. Best score still 86, had 3 of them frustratingly, one of them included a 9 as well. Coach thinks I should do it easy though. Going away for 2 weeks golf in Spain soon, so hoping to break it then.

 

[Son Of Coco]

That was quite...expansive.

 

[Son Of Coco]

And that one was a cracking off-drive. Lyon can bat.

 

[social]

What was that?
