3rd Test at Headingley, Leeds

So England are 40/5 anyway as GIMH feared, without having had to bat yesterday.

Yup, and with Aus about 70 over par.

6 down now. Those of us wondering if they'd reach 100 were being way too optimistic.

 

[Spark]

Warner is having quite a Test match

 

[trundler]

That's one helluva catch. Lolstow

 

[morgieb]

Who would've thought that England would be the ones doing the 60 all out routine.

It's like the Headingley Test 10 years ago. This is probably the best we've bowled since the 13/14 Ashes.

 

[Heboric]

YJB gone

 

[Spikey]

please get the next four wickets for 14 runs or less

 

[Starfighter]

I've noticed this is called the 'Participation Test'. Is everyone going to get a trophy for their non performance?

 

[trundler]

This one might bet too much for the English tail.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Warner's been having a bit to do in slips today

 

[mackembhoy]

This is the end of a few test careers I think

 

[morgieb]

I know I said I didn't really care whether they'd dropped either Siddle or Hazlewood, but I guarantee we would not be doing this well if Siddle was playing.

 

[Starfighter]

Best batsman in the side in just when needed.

 

[Cabinet96]

It's crazy how much worse the standards have got. Even Robson would've probably gotten more of a crack of the whip with today's batting lineup.

Played all his innings against Sri Lanka and India tbf.

Who would've thought that England would be the ones doing the 60 all out routine.

It's like the Headingley Test 10 years ago. This is probably the best we've bowled since the 13/14 Ashes.

Well we have done it against New Zealand, West Indies and Ireland in the last year or so it is not all that surprising.

Said we would have been bowled out for 50 yesterday....

 

[trundler]

So the difference has been that Stoke and Woakes bowled some dross yesterday whereas Pattinson has been Pattinson.

 

[Starfighter]

Haze has bowled all but one over from that end this session.

 

[Spikey]

I know I said I didn't really care whether they'd dropped either Siddle or Hazlewood, but I guarantee we would not be doing this well if Siddle was playing.

have you considered the affects of pressure though

 

[morgieb]

Played all his innings against Sri Lanka and India tbf.

Yeah that's true. Still he did slightly better than everyone else.

 

[Spikey]

england's best player is in though
