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

Will be one more twist. Woakes still got another 2 spells probably.

New ball in 14 but it doesn't do anything for another 10 or so after so won't have much of an impact

 

[danzydab]

plenty in it for the spinners, england should bowl moeen and root in tandem until the new ball is available

 

[Victor Ian]

Maybe stokes was reviewing for lbw. I'd complain about that tactic but I think that is one of ours.

anyone smirk at the loud cheers by eng supporters when they saw ultra edge on the big screen

Ponting getting stuck into the match ref next to the pitch during lunch over the ball.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

What if he felt Smith gloved it and stood there gormlessly watching it land right in front of him anyway?

Just saw the replay for the first time and lmao

The crowd have been frustrating for me at home at times.

They wasted time booing starc taking a legimate catch at OT on the big screen. The umpires then wasted 5 minutes getting the third umpire reviewing it.

Probably only others with Anderson Derangement Syndrome

I read this as AIDS.

He will spontaneously combust if we win this.

I feel the world deserves to witness this occur as much as I like Ponting.

Same old poms Always Cheating#! Disgusting .

These umpires need to be reviewed after this match for and favouring.

Clear example for favouring I ever seem in cricket English need umpires to hold their hand!.

England can never win themselves Always need outside help.

Totally unfair Already Asterisk test match.

Wish they would get rid of Ponting, his constant whinging & whining is a complete embarrassment. Him & Mcgrath were great players, but hopeless commentators. Good decision by the umpires there, Ben didn’t have control, similar to Stark at Lords. Still a good match though, & if Australia pull this off, it will be an historic win & will be fully deserved.

Ponting is a brilliant commentator & cricket brain
