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

[subshakerz]

High high quality cricket from both sides at the moment.

 

[trundler]

The lack of a front line spinner and Stokes being barely able to bowl has killed us here

Dumb declaration and part time keeper also.

 

[silentstriker]

And still a bad decision to declare.

Neutral Gambhiring is the worst Gambhiring. Imma not buying you dinner if you’re supporting England

stop clutching your pearls. where’s your australianism?

 

[CartyDurham]

Lol

piece of cake man

 

[Spark]

Yeah, at least this has highlighted how the declaration didn't make it any more likely that we'd win. Bairstow and other missed chances have cost us more but those weren't us just shooting ourselves in the foot

It was even more obvious when first innings was at parity. That's when a small buffer could have been most important!

[GotSpin]

Get him up here I wanna boof him **** off

 

[a massive zebra]

England fully deserve to lose this match for arrogantly declaring with a score of under 400.

 

[honestbharani]

Amazing shot. Lyon and Cummins deserve the win here just for their batting.

 

[CartyDurham]

That over that went for 14 by root was a huge mistake

 

[Burgey]

@Burgey how's the HIIT class looking?

Mate I may as well go straight there. It’s the back to back hearings I have to preside over later on that’s worrying me now

Lyon!!! Fmd what a shot

 

[chunksafc]

The fat lady is warming up
