That’s a crackerSo do one or too other commentators. Is it so we can all say it’s all gone Pete Tong?

I never expected Aus to be all out or even very near, but 312/3 is unacceptable.I fully expected us to have them all out by now.
Why does nothing go the way you want it to?
I must admit this has annoyed me.Most dangerous today Tongue
though Athers is pronouncing it Tong
Honestly in that case you shouldn't bowl first. If you bowl first you want to be batting by stumps.I never expected Aus to be all out or even very near, but 312/3 is unacceptable.
You could also argue Archer wasn’t looked after like a 90mph+ bowler should be being asked to bowl 8/9 over spells!Archer has just been unlucky with injuries,you could maybe argue that Wood wasn't managed better earlier in his test career
Yes it was, in 2003 against SA. Willis may have done too in 1984, although he may have played in the 3rd test and then called it a day.I think it was Darren Gough who retired after a test like this at lords. No fanfare with on the pitch applause. Just jacked it in when the game had finished
Anderson has been anaemic in the two tests and I wanted him to go out at the oval
I used to play club level with Toungey. Can confirm it's pronounced like the thing that sticks out of your mouth.Most dangerous today Tongue

Bowling first was absolutely the right call. But you definitely don't still want to be bowling by stumps then; you're liable to be well behind the game in that case - not this far behind mind youfancy choosing to bowl. It was so obvious a bat first.
Cummins would have bowled if he had won the toss. He did say that

I agree. Dross bowling and hideous fielding is being deservedly punishedBowling first was absolutely the right call. But you definitely don't still want to be bowling by stumps then; you're liable to be well behind the game in that case - not this far behind mind you
This makes sense. Because when we bat first we aim to be bowling by stumps.Honestly in that case you shouldn't bowl first. If you bowl first you want to be batting by stumps.
