*Official* First Test (Edgbaston, Birmingham) 16–20 June

[Spark]

Yeah that's exactly the sort of shot that's been trickling to mid off all day. It's the big risk here

 

[Saket1209]

pitch is still docile

Reminder when Australia got all out for 47,Lyon was the highest scorer

 

[Aidan11]

Damn it didn't work.

 

[Burgey]

My gut feeling tells me Aussies are going to win. That, and knowing they have 11 overs to make 27 runs. Boundary. Make that 23 runs.

We never win the close ones. Save maybe Ryan Harris in sa a few years back

 

[Bahnz]

Oh yay, woke up just in time to watch Edgbaston 2: Bazball Bugaloo

 

[CartyDurham]

Think I would have more than one slip though

these are late order players

We never win the close chases for sure. We sometimes win when we're bowling.

 

[Saket1209]

50: 50 NOW

Warne just appeared to me from the great beyond and told me to repeat his nugget about adding 2 wickets and 20 runs

Lyon is a nicker too. Loves a booming off drive as we've already seen

AUS dominates or lose

 

[CartyDurham]

Easy one

I on behalf of all Indians thank you for not mentioning Sydney

Reminder,Cummins hitting the winning runs on his debut while chasing 250+.

 

[Spark]

AUS dominates or lose

Yep, been that way my whole life. Even the dominant sides rarely won the close ones

 

[CartyDurham]

Thought that was four but just 1

 

[Cricket CoachDB]

This ****ing sport. Seriously

What a match.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Reminder,Cummins hitting the winning runs on his debut while chasing 250+.

That was a very good forgotten test match. 47 allout is all that comes to mind when that series is mentioned.

Reminder,Cummins hitting the winning runs on his debut while chasing 250+.

That's actually probably the only example of one we did win
