4th Test at Old Trafford, Manchester

[Burgey]

Jason Roy will make 50 plus this dig. Get on.

 

[aussie tragic]

Roy will improve his series average this innings, he'll get 10

 

[Lillian Thomson]

The media were quite kind to Gatting over cheating on his wife and his row with Shakoor Rana, but came up with the "Gatt the prat" headline for his reverse sweep in the World Cup Final.

 

[aussie tragic]

Starc to start...show them what 150 looks like

 

[morgieb]

Wait, Paine makes a DRS decision that's the right one?

 

[Burgey]

Starc’s as focused and angry AF here.

 

[morgieb]

Brute of a ball that. Even the regular batsman probably nick that.

 

[Burgey]

Deck seems quicker and bouncier than yesterday. In you come, Joe

Had a very good match thus far. From sledging Archer pre-game up to that decision, and a 50 to boot. Rare air for him.

Death threats work, clearly

 

[Burgey]

Burns makes me nervous with the way he plays the short one. Can see him getting pinged quite a bit.

Our blokes already fuller than England yesterday

 

[Burgey]

Death threats work, clearly

Heh

TMS debating whether Australia should enforce the follow on as they general don't.

 

[trundler]

Not surprise that Warne gave his daughter a stripper name

Long way off that point. But what’s the forecast for the rest of the game?

 

[OverratedSanity]

Dodgy start from Root, this

Last time I looked, the forecast for Days 4 and 5 was fine. Depends on how quickly Aus bowl us out. If we fold for under 150, they may as well force the follow on. Maybe not if England bat long enough to make around 250.

 

[trundler]

All run 4! Woohoo!

 

[stephen]

That's very good stuff from Starc.

Imagine facing this opening pair and knowing that when one of them comes off you only have to negotiate the world number 1 bowler.

 

[stephen]

All run 4! Woohoo!

That shot deserved 4 anyway.
