*Official* Fifth Test (The Oval, London) 27-31 July

[Silver Silva]

Long way to go but if Australia won this would Bazball survive as a concept?

In a World where T20 is the most watched format , Bazball is here to stay in Tests ..Its already prompted other teams to score quicker ..it will catch on to Australia aswell I think .I just hope that Bazball won't be used as justification for 4 day Tests

Change that to you bottled trying to win a series you were on top on because of your players wanted to play in the IPL instead.

A drawn series at the end of the day on the record books.

nah a 2-1 win then a 1-0 loss in a one off test series because eng squad was different

Tubby and Punter need to stop tempting the gods tbh.

Not saying that he’s batted well but Warner has done half a job for Australia in this series and if he’d actually converted a start or 2, it wouldn’t be that bad

About as useful as trusting weather forecasts ..They make their own luck out there .

 

[Test fan]

This is the problem when you gave a flat pitch just because of your sloggers can get some fast runs

Warner is thrashing Root on the ground like he did at bar.

 

[Burgey]

Australia now favourites according to Bet365....

That’s a line of betting put up by people who aren’t students of cricket

Doesn't matter how you dress it up.

Record books have it as a drawn series.

Your pathetic national team valued a meaningless T20 league instead of the pinnacle of cricket.

I could be wrong but wasn't Brook the only difference and he did absolutely nothing in the test?

 

[Spark]

Uh. Why isn't Usman wearing the little back flaps?

 

[Test fan]

Other points of this slogging cricket( Bazball) ,it gives the opposition so much more time to get big chases.....

 

[ripper868]

Wagnarball rest of the day then.

Punishing him for his racism, this time against Asians

Don’t think Brook debuted until later in the summer. Openers were different though
