*Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

[GIMH]

I've got sky go but use my IPTV as it's closer to the live play.

So bad that the dodgy method is better than the legit one.

My IPTV is £9 a year and sky free though, so got to make my money's worth haha

11 overs down after 2 sessions isn't very spirit of cricket.

187 for 4

this last session will possibly decide how this match will progress

Australia bat through with 4 wickets in hand for tomorrow, they are well ahead

England need to bowl them out to be ahead in the game

It’s weird as he came over early to get some good practice in

maybe it’s down to England bowling well to him . Scandalous but it maybe the reason

 

[Blenkinsop]

How are the Aus fans feeling about having no spinner atm?

Thanks, didn't know the score

Thanks, didn't know the score

That’s ok then

It helps when reading back on a thread , when things happen

Well as a bowling unit, you can't just let him dictate terms consistently. As good as he is, the bowlers still need to make him earn the runs.

Going to tempt fate but there has been no drops today so far that have been crucial

 

[mackembhoy]

That’s a great deal.

Got it for £90 for 10 years back in 2021. Think their charging £65 for a year now. So defs lucked out.

Sky is my mid 60 year old parents who won't move away from paying sky a king's ransom cos they don't like dodgy methods.

Yet they were watching the blast quarter final via YouTube on holiday in Wales while the game was on sky. I was like well your watching a dodgy stream you know haha.

Sky go doesn't work abroad so that's handy for you.

Wish I was abroad pissing it down in Northumberland today.

Where's the heatwave we had this time last year. The climate change deniers are out in full force!!!

 

[loterry1994]

Even session here. England started off well but once broad an Anderson came in they weren’t that threatening. Ali did well with the amount he bowled, Marnus was lazy against him. Think these two will up the rate

 

[Burgey]

Fine

Nice, I can watch this tonight and then watch day 5 of SL V Pak until this comes on again this minimising the chances of being alone with my thoughts
