Great shot from Warner that. Joking aside aside from the running he looked in no bother

 

[G. S. Kohli]

I hope you have a good night there my dear GS Kohli. Enjoy the last few overs before close of play.
It's raining over here.

Worst in india especially that strom distroyed few villages Upto Ground zero.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wait what no Anderson?

 

[Nintendo]

Declaration and now anderson not opening the ball in england. This is certainly something from stokes.

 

[trundler]

All Australia really have to do is not match or exceed England in stupidity. They've been handed the game on a plate. Just bat and bat.

Sorry to hear this mate

 

[Burgey]

Khawaja got back into that habit of playing a long way from his body lately. Was more compact when he was making all those runs

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Pheww, that was scary

 

[Spark]

Yikes

When do you reckon he started doing it?

 

[TimAngas]

That could have been disastrous.

 

[Burgey]

That suicide gully is a good position for Khawaja

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Robinson better batsman than broad & Anderson.

Good handy 43*artnership for 9th wicket

 

[trundler]

Jeez I'm glad he didn't roll an ankle there

 

[honestbharani]

There is something to be said about doing funky stuff that annoy the opposition on flat tracks and doing what they least expect etc.

But if Australia can find the composure to keep their wits, they should be able to get into the driver's seat for this game by tomorrow.

Also needs to be noted that it is very possible that England bowlers may find more swing here than the Aussies did. While it does look a road right now, it could change or maybe England can get more out of it. Have to wait and see both sides bowl on a track before finalizing the judgement IMHO.

Omg seriously? You talk like you know this game and tell us how you spend time in the nets chatting to all these great cricketers....... but you somehow come out with these ****i g bazzare opinions that just makes me realise you are absolutely clueless and have nfi what your talking about.

Joe Root >>>>> KP. And any team (or person) that "fears" KP more over a series than Root is just off the wall stupid.

I know you guys hate KP but you also have very short memories

The English team was as weak as piss before he came along & his innings at the Oval secured the Ashes

He was also the main reason why England won its first ever trophy

 

[flibbertyjibber]

When do you reckon he started doing it?

Time off does funny things. A few months of no cricket and it easy to lapse into old habits

 

[Howe_zat]

The funniest thing about the declaration is my colleague who was talking about how he justs wants to watch England bat when he goes to the game tomorrow. He must've been getting his hopes up towards the end lol
