[_Ed_]

CdG's been unlucky not to pick up a wicket here.

Massive shame bumble wasn’t able to cover the ashes, from the English perspective he might actually have rendered it bearable.

Cdg beating stokes on the outside edge every over is becoming a meme

 

[BeeGee]

Decision to bowl first is looking good. One more wicket and we're into the bowlers.

Edit: It's business time.

 

[_Ed_]

Excellent! Good ol' leg-side strangle.

 

[Spark]

Wait, Broad is batting 8? Have they decided to just ignore his batting for, what, five years now?

 

[The Hutt Rec]

Don't think I've ever heard a player be lambasted for walking before. Shut up Doull.

 

[_Ed_]

That's appalling from Broad.

I enjoyed doull's bowling back in the day, underrated bowler.
Probably the worst commentator there has ever been though. Just so annoying.

No, they've just decided to drop Moeen and Woakes.

time for sodhi to clean up the tail with some googlies

Flight of the Valkyrie from the trumpeter. **** that's good!

 

[_Ed_]

Good 50. Really well played.

 

[NZTailender]

I remember on the NZ tour of England thinking Wood was a more decent bat than Broad. Crime he batted below him today.

 

[NZTailender]

Bowling has gone wayward in the space of two overs.

 

[_Ed_]

Ooooh.

 

[Bahnz]

don't get Williamsons reticence to give Sodhi a few overs. surely a better option than CdG against the lower order.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

can we not bowl cdg here

 

[NZTailender]

The answer is Sodhi and Kane until the new nut
