Why in the world are both them farming the strike

 

[hazsa19]

This is weird.

Great, just denied Broad one last slog.

Probably Jimmy not wanting to face the seamers

 

[TimAngas]

Going over again?

EDIT: Nope that look out.

 

[Shady Slim]

not bad for ur last ball in test cricket to be clanking mitch starc into the oval stands

 

[Howe_zat]

Joel Wilson has no sense of fun.

Proper tailender's decision that

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Well, the 6 was fun.

 

[Socerer 01]

come soon Warner

 

[Adorable Asshole]

We need to see some clutch Broad sixes before he hang up his boots for good.

Seems like Broad has seen this.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Can't believe that was umpire's call. I'm skeptical of hawkere on that one

 

[TimAngas]

Well willl it be the Broad farewell procession or will Australia fight back?

I think there is still a game on with the pitch not looking bad at all, and no frontline spinner to take advantage of the rough. England have only had a days rest after a very compressed series too.

 

[Andy19]

384 for Australia to win no way that's happening Congratulations England fans however Australia retains the ashes.

And of course Australia have been better team in the series form tests 1-3.

 

[Heboric]

233 to many for Australia

Looked absolutely plumb. Surprised it bounced that much.

I don't know I'd say England were the better team over the course of the series. Unless you're discounting the last couple of games because they were (almost) dead rubbers

Looked absolutely plumb. Surprised it bounced that much.

That's what I'm saying, I don't think it did

 

[danzydab]

moeen should be brought on early

 

[TheJediBrah]

Why in the world are both them farming the strike

Pretty obvious I would have thought. Jimmy much more comfortable against the spinners

 

[TimAngas]

Congratulations Stuart Broad. Glad this is the last time I have to watch our openers front up against him!
