eng bowlers after ball change

Good to see we finally got some luck to finally balance out the umpires having made Zak bat in the pitch black at Edgbaston

I translate this as you forgot to pay your TV licence so you were just watching static.

Callum Ferguson called the ball change "disgraceful" on Ch 9 just now; I guess we know what will be dominating the Oz tabloid media tomorrow.

I’ve not managed to watch or listen to any this morning. Was it any different to all the other ball changes in the series?

It can't be Englands fault cause umpires are the ones who pick the ball.

Do you know if there's a trophy celebration at the end of this test?

Just wondering if its worth staying up to watch the playing group celebrate with their families and friends.

 

[Shri]

if smith tons up here and the ball doesn't stop swinging it will be better than that ton by sachin vs a rampant steyn

 

[RIcho]

Steve Smith would be such a good poker player

I mean yeah it's just another file in the very large drawer of reasons Joel Wilson should not be umpiring international cricket games.

Yes , if you retain the Ashes you are handed the Urn to celebrate

that last ball was ****ing venom

 

[Uppercut]

The "new" ball only did a little bit more last night. The weather conditions are having a bigger impact imo.

Uppercut thinks he knows physics because he just watched Oppenheimer the other night.

I think it's clear the collective gut of Cricketweb agrees it's cheating
