***Official*** 2nd Test at Adelaide

[Daemon]

It makes bugger all sense when it's a D/N Test.

Yeah, makes no sense to end on time in D/N games if the overs aren't done.

especially in a d/n test, i mean the conditions aren’t getting much different until sunrise ffs

My bad, forgot England have a curfew

Not enforcing the follow-on at an Adelaide day-nighter: worst bit of captaincy since putting the opposition in first-innings at an Adelaide day-nighter.

Wait a minute?

if there's a rain delay they should just play on through the night

Australian players have behaved appallingly

Underrated

 

[Furball]

Would be nice if umpires adopted the 'go **** yourself' precedent set at Karachi when it comes to time wasting.

 

[TNT]

I still don't get why they don't just play until all the overs due are bowled.

Cant, the England players have to shower have their dinner and put their pyjamas on and be in bed before midnight.

steve smith + swing = walking wicket.

He's lucky that he doesn't get to face English conditions more often.

That's a bit unlucky. Though tbf Smith was quite lucky with the first one.

Both were out

Imagine facing English conditions every day of your life.

Cracking last session that, great bowling. Probably too late but if we can nick the rest out for say 40-50 (achievable IMO) then we at least go out to bat with our tails up.

Just nice to have at least one session we ****ing won tbh

Do you happen to know, or be, someone who sounds a bit like a description of a defensive batsman, or an adverb of an action they do?

That can't be true, from all accounts his mother is a happy person.
