Oh good Travis Head is in against the seaming ball.

Yeah him at 5 in this conditions.....

Don't really think Wade or Paine would do any better, though. It's why Patterson should've been there.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Head averaging over 50 in Test cricket is an absolute Travis-ty

Sri Lanka have a lot to answer for making that happen

 

[Spintolose]

Woakes <3

That's me out of last man standing. ?

 

[Starfighter]

The one handed defensive shot. Nice. Can we have Patterson?

He won't be for much longer.

 

[trundler]

I really rate Head. Time for a recovery.

 

[morgieb]

The frightening thing is that Dharmasena is not umpiring.

Are there any good umpires from the non-Anglosphere?

 

[aussie tragic]

Wade to repay the faithful in this innings, needs a ton

 

[TheJediBrah]

He middled that, same old Aussies always cheating.

Born overseas. Must have picked it up as a baby.

Dar used to be good.

 

[Uppercut]

Hell of an over from Woakes.

 

[BSM]

Smith now please

 

[social]

Nope

We have one decent player backed by crap

Fortunately, Smith is an atg

 

[TheJediBrah]

I really rate Head.

Probably because it's all you've had at your age

 

[Starfighter]

Dar has his moments, but he's also had enough in the other direction.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Are there any good umpires from the non-Anglosphere?

No.

Much like in 09 when we'd have been better off with Willey and Taufel for all 5 games. One from each side would raise the standard so much and I doubt us fans would care.

Go to the head of the class.

Post of the day.

 

[TheJediBrah]

That should be a wide. No way the batsman was reaching that.
