***Official*** 5th Test at the SCG

[Starfighter]

Nice to see England throwing away their starts again.

Edit: the above conversation

 

[quincywagstaff]

This 20 minute segment on McGrath’s batting great example of the ‘Dad humour’ Kimber is referring to.

 

[Starfighter]

That outfield is really soft. Too soft. Not good.

 

[Gnske]

I'd believe Usman there if all Pakistani players didn't enjoy a good performance after being wounded.

 

[Spikey]

god please give me root making his 4th score between 50 and 99 and Smith making his 4th century

 

[Starfighter]

Listening on the radio earlier I had Root nailed on for a 62.

 

[Starfighter]

That was a very nasty mix up. Can't rely on the wicket keeper to throw though.

 

[Starfighter]

I thought that was out before the ball even reached Smith. However what happened when the ball reached Smith made me change my opinion.

 

[Gnske]

Australian fielding everyone

Marsh’s runup showing he hasn’t given up hope of rejoining the cartel. Fair way to go for a bloke who’s gently wafting them up there.

 

[Top_Cat]

Smith’s put down a few this series but he’s a class fielder and they’ve all been pretty difficult, especially the one off Marsh in Perth. Already low and dying off is hard work to reel in.

 

[Spikey]

first paine ****s up the run out with the worst throw I've ever seen and then he distracts smith from taking a catch. smh

 

[Starfighter]

Marsh, like Woakes, is one of those who looks like they're bowling about 10 km/h slower than what the radar says.

 

[Spark]

We were pretty lucky to pick up the wicket of Cook. The joke that is video/3D replays in world sport rolls on.

yeah that incredibly questionable and convoluted question of "where did the ball land"

 

[wpdavid]

Decent score, but this is the longest England tail I've seen for a very long time, especially with Moeen in no sort of form. You can easily see the last 6 going for 30.

 

[Compton]

Decent score, but this is the longest England tail I've seen for a very long time, especially with Moeen in no sort of form. You can easily see the last 6 going for 30.

Yeah I can’t see a huge amount coming from the bowlers. With Moeen you never know, though.

 

[Starfighter]

The same shot again. Very lucky from Root.

 

[Spark]

Always give you a chance, doesn't he? At some point he really has to rethink his approach to an innings.

 

[Spikey]

JOE WHAT THE **** I HATE YOU

[Gnske]

Hahahahahahaha it just keeps happening
