Perfect number five/ six in a line up with the three and four Aus has right now.I think with him, you have to accept whatever way he gets out. Live by the sword die by it etc

He seems to start every series very nervously. Hopefully he works his way into it.Was a bag of nerves at Edgbaston Green.
I don't believe you!Believe it or not it has taken me till now to realise why Root wears the number 66
That's a hell of a username.I think Ben needs to rethink this part of Bazball where you drop loads of catches and bowl badly. It is an unorthodox strategy, which I like, but I’m not sure it has proven to be beneficial yet.
That's Brook's number isn't it? He does look a bit like he could be a member of 'the youth'.I had him more an 88 kinda guy tbh
When he wasn’t in African safari..By all accounts Jimmy is supposed to be a really nice fella, pretty reserved, shy almost and always has time for fans etc.
I think he's just one of those sportsmen who have a completely different persona on and off the pitch.
I think Glenn McGrath is another one like that - a snarly, aggressive so and so on the pitch but apparently a real gent off it.
Not easy for Batsman, Although i am starving to seePretty good start by the Aussies but they need to carry on for the better part of tomorrow to really press home the advantage…
Completely buggered this up, though tbf thought Smith would be in earlier after Warner's usual quick demise.Anyone who thinks bowling first is a bad idea say so now, not at stumps when it's 325/4 with Smith 120*
Some of their bowlers looked like they needed a rest already, so it will be interesting to see how they come back today. I'm obviously hoping they don't regroup and take a couple of quick wickets. If they don't, I'm not sure how they turn it around, especially bowling in our 2nd innings. It may turn out that the BazBall approach to batting grinds down your bowlers, particularly when a couple are north of 35. Given their injuries and Stokes' current output, it places them in a position where they either have to throw in young guys like Tongue and hope for the best, or grind their first choice bowlers into the dirt.In terms of where this series is headed today is a day of gigantic importance for England. They have a chance to do well in both departments
and get right back into the game. However another bad day and things could quickly start to spiral out of control. It's not too hard to see that if they
go 2-0 down the wheels could completely fall off. It's D day for the pommies.

I forgot brook , so take out Robinson and slot brook in at 4 or 5
Blame Green he is complete village proven now. Head got a quickfire 70 odd. Green worse than Shane Watson and the most over rated test cricketer on the planet. He's a test no6 yet not better than Starc or Cummins at batting. Even Roy or Mitch marsh were better all rounders for us.Didn't expect us to be at this score at the end of the day, although it was ultimately disappointing to lose a couple of quick wickets towards the end.
Hopefully we push on in the morning to 450+. Not giving England any free wickets should test their resolve a little.
