[Shady Slim]

every innings by travis head ever in history until he gets to about 75:

This is one of the all time hack innings thus far.

 

[Spark]

Actual radar presentation btw, not a computer forecast

someone’s winning this still don’t see a draw. When not going into our shell yet as well

 

[91Jmay]

Yeah got to hook Jimmy. Just pish, give Ali a go Head liable to do something stupid

If that presentation pans out then there won't be time, we might not get any play after lunch. We already know from yesterday this isn't a fast turnaround ground

 

[Gnske]

Jimmy needs some cialis or something

 

[Daemon]

Man what a session to miss. As a neutral I wish for nothing less than maximum waahhh and the Wilson - Dharma duo has delivered in spades

 

[MW1304]

FFS why can't we have four of Woakes

 

[Prince EWS]

Straya are over half way there now

Livin' on a prayer!

But seriously I definitely saw this more as '10 wickets, 249 to win' today as opposed to really continuing another chase. I reckon the Australian dressing room would have broken it down to that too. So not even close to livin' on a prayer yet.

Four new ball bowlers? Are you insane? Who bowls the 20 overs of the old ball?

 

[Preed]

I hate to say it but Anderson is bowling absolute rubbish and looks a beaten man his body language is shocking but stokes does not have the bottle to take him off.Michael Vaughan would have had him off immediately it was obvious that he had lost the plot.It has now raised the Aussie confidence and they will canter to win if Woakes and wood don’t produce again

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Somebody smack Jimmy in the head so we can get Tongue out there

 

[silentstriker]

IMO it’s cheating that the umpires aren’t allowing Anderson to bowl with the magic swinging ball.

 

[Prince EWS]

Four new ball bowlers? Are you insane? Who bowls the 20 overs of the old ball?

They took the second new ball after 20 overs so the old ball is irrelevant.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Gee, who would have thought a bowler with a series SR of over 180 would be struggling in favourable conditions?

 

[Molehill]

That was a truly terrible over from Anderson.

 

[RightArmMystery]

This is some pretty shite stuff being served up by Jimmy atm. Not looking remotely threatening.

 

[91Jmay]

Don't mind him staying out there. Dry it up a bit and tempt him.

 

[Gnske]

If they delay taking the new ball after the 60th over Stokes is an idiot captain

 

[Xuhaib]

The wrong veteran is retiring.

jimmy is done stick a fork in him.
