*Official* Third Test (Headingley, Leeds) 6–10 July

[Jarquis]

Stokes’ six hitting record is whack

 

[halba]

Murphy's not test standard. sorry. I dont rate him at all.

 

[91Jmay]

Burgey will say Ben Stokes and a Bristol police cell.

I mean I think Burgey's issue was generally the lack of custodial.

@Son Of Coco

50 lead. Are you distraught ?

this is ridiculous yet again by England but if they can drag another 30 out here , it’s nearly game on again.

It's ridiculous by Australia too. Handing 50 runs to the tailenders leaves you at the mercy of Stokes if he gets in this mood.

I mean I still would've taken a first innings lead at the start of today. But after lunch we really should've been targeting a 100 run lead. Instead it's basically parity, and I don't think England will bowl as dumb as we have. Nor do I think we have a Stokes type to take the game away from them (OK Marsh did first innings but I'll be surprised if he does go again).

Murphy's not test standard. sorry.

hahahahahaha

I feel for Murphy here. Suicide mission. Same thing happened to Ajaz Patel couple of years ago. Mowed down by Stokes and never played again. I think Murphy will get another chance but jeez. Tough for the lad

 

[OverratedSanity]

Murphy's not test standard. sorry.

You are exceptionally stupid. Not sorry.

 

[AVA]

Murphy's on so that Stokes injures himself too badly to bat in the second innings. I understand it now.

 

[trundler]

How is Stokes the walking wounded and still pulling this ****

Humongous testicles

 

[CartyDurham]

Now then Robinson on strike

did not expect England being this close an hour ago

makes the dismissals further up all the more annoying

Yeah he'll have the rest of the series. Just was caught in the headlights hard here.

At least he's no longer on strike now.

Totally agree. Both sides like giving presents

 

[loterry1994]

Aus blowing this bad **** me

 

[GIMH]

Ben Stokes though

 

[91Jmay]

I mean nothing in pitch for spinner, one of most devastating hitters of spin ever. Hardly the first bloke ever to go the journey

 

[Bahnz]

How's Robinson's movement? Normally you'd expect him to be good to last 20 or 30 balls.

 

[RightArmMystery]

**** knows how we're only 38 behind. Been a truly bizarre session of cricket so far.

 

[CartyDurham]

Bloody hell Robinson in on the act

I will have my daily call for a slow ball Yorker

 

[Socerer 01]

Australia should lose for sticking to this short ball ****
