***Official*** 1st Test at Brisbane

[Starfighter]

**** yeah!

 

[Gnske]

Excellent batting, superb

 

[Cabinet96]

You ****ing wanker.

 

[Jarquis]

That’s a very average shot

 

[Prince EWS]

Jeez that one turned a mile when you consider the original angle.

 

[morgieb]

What the **** was that shot?

England clearly needed more #intent

 

[Scaly piscine]

Do all the hard work then come up with this ********* cricket to undo it all.

 

[Starfighter]

ftr I continue to not rate Woakes' batting.

 

[adub]

This could be over real quick now.

And don't bet against Starc ending up with a 5-fer just dropping 3 inswinging bombs on the toes of the tail.

 

[Cabinet96]

Broad jammy 30 odd is desperately needed.

 

[Pothas]

I blame Stokes.

 

[Alex0paul]

First time Broad hasn't faced a hat trick delivery in the first innings at the Gabba

 

[morgieb]

Do all the hard work then come up with this ********* cricket to undo it all.

I mean you should've been hoping for 400+ when Starc tried that leg-side trackers strategy as a last resort. This is a pretty awful collapse.

Lyon finally starting to get figures that reward how well he's bowled.

 

[Cabinet96]

Woakes is just way too soft/loose for someone of his technical ability.

 

[Gnske]

We're in a timeline where Lyon is our most dangerous bowler at home.

I like this

 

[Cow]

That's a terrible shot. Woakes clearly has his mind elsewhere... possibly the recent protests in Jakarta.

 

[social]

Bairstow is a fine batsman and way too low at no. 7

 

[adub]

This could be over real quick now.

And don't bet against Starc ending up with a 5-fer just dropping 3 inswinging bombs on the toes of the tail.

actually bet against it

 

[mr_mister]

Woakes ROFL. Doesn't he like bat 3 for his county

 

[Pothas]

Bairstow is a fine batsman and way too low at no. 7

In this side yes. Fine when you have Moeen at 8. It is weird because Moeen has been so good batting with the tail.
