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

You just can’t get those weather reports right every day lot of them said it would rain during play this morning

 

[91Jmay]

Yes I understand that, and it would have been less of a big deal if Aus had 450-500 on the board

Yup, was a great pitch a lots of odd dismissals. Blokes just missing straight ones? We bowled v well in terms of accuracy, especially Woakes obviously but 3 to 6 getting between 40-50 is brutal contextually. One goes on the game is almost over

 

[Prince EWS]

Best bit of camera work for the series was that prolonged shot of the 4th umpire picking his nose just now

As the game grows we'll eventually be able to afford a fifth umpire to pick it for him.

Like your enthusiasm through out the series. Good work

Forecast for tomorrow has also improved rapidly. Australia has to take the new ball and try keep this lead under 200 and should try make 400 with the bat. That's the only way

Brook near 51

Labuschagne got out for 51,

Mitch Marsh was dismissed for 51,


now Stokes out for 51

 

[Silver Silva]

Brook near 51

Labuschagne got out for 51,

Mitch Marsh was dismissed for 51,


now Stokes out for 51

That would be spooky

 

[91Jmay]

Forecast this PM has shifted a bit to worse now, 50/50 of rain for few hours after lunch but Aussies should be batting before lunch IMO.

Disagree with Tubby on taking new ball, risk/reward isn't there.

 

[Prince EWS]

That would be spooky

The entire game would be #spooked.

LOL at the endless speculation about the weather. It very seldom plays as big a role as it's made out.

 

[Adorable Asshole]

Brook is just playing for his average. Such a selfish player.

 

[silentstriker]

Wait did I mishear or did Ponting actually just say that things are going the way Australia want at the moment?

 

[Qlder]

Neser was on the field for Marsh at start of play. Has Marsh come on to field today? Is he injured?

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Not taking new ball.

Yes it going pretty bad like Australia wants it to be. Just look at how they bowled yesterday. I'm pretty sure there is some match fixing involved.

I can see 3 hour window for english bowler to skill out Aus on 22nd late or 23 Late

Eng must need to take 3 wkts today for positive results
