1st Test at Brisbane, 8th-12th of December 2021

[_Ed_]

Weird and intense celebration, but a superb hundred nevertheless. Good on him.

 

[Spark]

That's a really impressive innings given the situation just after tea

 

[morgieb]

Where dem haters at?

Daily reminder etc

 

[Burgey]

That's a ****ing top knock. Basically blew the game away in a session.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Genuinely great knock. Undroppable now.

 

[Prince EWS]

Daily reminder that Head > Wade.

 

[Starfighter]

I've been quite critical of Head in the past, but that innings was very timely and has put the match very far from England after they looked like getting back into it.

 

[Shady Slim]

the poms could lose every test in the series by 500 runs and it wouldn't be more embarrassing than letting that happen

 

[thierry henry]

scored 101 of the last 129 runs I think, without checking?

 

[sunilz]

Wade would have scored 100 in 70 balls.

 

[Gnske]

Usman would have scored 10 in 70 balls

 

[tony p]

Well played Head. That was great to watch, fantastic counter attacking, a little luck, but who cares.

 

[halba]

Scary good form here. Pinnacle of modern great test match batting.

 

[_Ed_]

Usman would have scored 10 in 70 balls

Still better than Harris.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

What a phenomenal innings, Travis ****ing Head ladies and gentlemen


Stocks in Shady Slim pty ltd tanking hard

 

[Burgey]

Head will take Wood apart in the last session.

Well would you look at that.

 

[GIMH]

Fair play to Head. Took the game from being difficult for us to get back into to being gone.

From the bits and bobs they’ve shown from earlier in the day doesn’t seem like we’ve bowled terribly. But you score 147 first up then you give the opposition so much licence. 250-6 a different prospect if your opposition have put up 350. This to me feels like what’s done for us down under pretty much every time since we won there.

 

[mr_mister]

I'd rather it have been Maxwell playing that type of knock in a home test

 

[Gnske]

You can tell Root is thinking of segregated water fountains in that look he gave when Travis scored that century

 

[_Ed_]

Oof, Jesus. Hope he's okay.
