3rd Test at Headingley, Leeds

[Howe_zat]

I miss owt?

 

[Burgey]

Man of the match will be a tricky one - Tim Paine for me

Joel Wilson by a short margin to Stokes then Paine

 

[flibbertyjibber]

What did I miss?

Just getting to airport so may have a pint of extortionate priced beer to celebrate.

Gingers rule. Get in Stokes you beauty.

 

[Maximas]

Australia will feel like they missed some opportunities

right

 

[Spikey]

at least everyone in Australia will dislike tim paine as much as i do

 

[cnerd123]

Lyons fumble will live forever. ATG choke moment.

wonder what effect that will have on his bowling for the rest of the series

wonder what effect this game will have on the Aussies. Losing a game after bowling them out for 67 in the second innings.

fantastic

Finally a good Ashes Test match, well done to Stokes.

Hope team Australia has a Psychologist on retainer that was major stuff up by Australia.

Plenty of couch time needed

Tim Paine can visit one after he's taken the next flight back to Australia

 

[Compton]

Australia are as well flying home now.

 

[NUFAN]

The last partnership made more than Englands first innings. That review just pisses me off the most.

 

[OverratedSanity]

I mean, this is an all time gutting loss. They'll have to show ridiculous character to come back even with Smith.

How does Stokes's series thus far compare to Botham's or Flintoff's? Has to be up there.

Better than Flintoff easily.

I never thought we were going to lose. Even with 2 to go and Leach facing I thought we were going to win.

Well done Stokes, brilliant century and Leach did enough to support him.

We had chances and they went away. Really shattered.

 

[91Jmay]

Tim Paine half century not materialise then? ATG innings, have to be combined two of the worst skippers the game has seen but what a moment and what a match.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

A combined team would end up quite good. As it is both sides carrying lots of dross.

 

[Uppercut]

Christ that must be close to the best innings ever played. Easily the best I’ve ever seen. Best match I’ve seen too.

 

[Dissector]

What an insane finish.
If Australia didn't foolishly waste a review, they win the match and retain the Ashes.
If Lyon collects an easy ball, they win the match and retain the Ashes.
If the umpire gets it right, they win the match and retain the Ashes.

I don't think I have ever seen anything like it.

 

[Number 11]

Alright I’m taking a break from cricket. **** me I’m heartbroken what a choke.

 

[King Pietersen]

**** me. What a match. Stokes is a ****ing hero. WAFG.

 

[mr_mister]

Our only hope is to learn how to bat

Stokes > Botham + Flintoff
