5th Test at The Oval, London

My guess is that Smith will still be batting on this when the Surrey boys report for pre-season training next year.

Bairstow always looks like he's smelled something rank in the neighborhood.

It is clear that Cummins is very good. No wonder he's number one. This match has a very dead rubber feeling about it, despite it mattering towards the Word Test Championship. Australia haven't been focused. Cummins won't be happy his figures don't reflect how well he has bowled.

I dislike the shininess of the names and numbers on the Australian players' shirts. Looks tacky and in fact strangely disgusting.

 

[Arachnodouche]

****ing beautiful bowler

 

[Arachnodouche]

This new version of Cummins getting just enough shape to beat the bat is far better than the banana swing of younger days.

They did pick a vaguely diseased shade of green tbh

 

[zaremba]

Oh dear. Buttler, here's your chance.

 

[Groundking]

Root you're ****ign rubbish mate, time to drop the captaincy.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Love it. Absurd amount of luck and he still can't make use of it. Good rock though

 

[Spark]

This would be a horrible way to get out

 

[Spark]

Ha, nowhere near

 

[OverratedSanity]

Im tempted to make fun of Root but that's a cracking delivery from a great bowler.

 

[ImpatientLime]

lol peak wasteman root

weak cricketer

 

[mr_mister]

That's Roots 9th consecutive unconverted ashes fifty

 

[Spark]

Great bowling

 

[Farkspark]

What a complete f/up with Siddle bowling right arm optimistic. Carey as keeper batting at 6, Marsh at 7 followed by Pattinson Cummins Lyon and the Woody

 

[StephenZA]

Are England really going to **** this up now after such a good start?

Bairstow burns yet another review. One day he's going to review on of his cleaned bowled dismissals.
