***Official*** 3rd Test at the WACA

[stephen]

Annoys me how many records have fallen because modern wickets are so much more benign than they were when those older matches were being played.

In case that wasn't sarcastic - this pitch is the WACA stereotype. You couldn't ask for a bouncier, flatter wicket that will have giant cracks in by day 5.

Handscomb done more than Marsh

 

[Spark]

Hahahahaha it's amazing that it was Handscomb that took that catch

 

[Starfighter]

Now for Moeen to do something stupid. Lyon's got him four in four so far.

 

[Burgey]

Interesting to see how Ali plays this. Lyon has been all over him like a fat kid on cake this series so far.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Moeen vs Lyon will be very interesting now.

Haha.

Great stuff from Handscomb.

 

[morgieb]

Superb knock and catch that. Can see these two doing damage but if not the situation does not look anywhere near as dire as I first thought.

 

[Spark]

This outfield is just ridiculous.

 

[stephen]

Once again Lyon does the business. Why has he only had 22 overs?

 

[Spark]

Superb knock and catch that. Can see these two doing damage but if not the situation does not look anywhere near as dire as I first thought.

It helps that they hadn't actually gotten that many runs before the enormous partnership. Even so, still should be targeting 500 here.

 

[_Ed_]

WTF was that?

 

[NotMcKenzie]

And Mali goes easily

 

[Alex0paul]

Shot

 

[Starfighter]

Now that was soft.

 

[Burgey]

Was never gonna like the bounce was Moeen. Doesn’t like it up him. Never has.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Ffs Moeen. England need a lot more here. 400 odd isn't a great total.

 

[Spark]

That is a ****ing piss-weak dismissal when you have a chance to put your team in a dominant position.

 

[stephen]

Lyon must be annoyed that his unbroken run of dismissing Ali has been broken.

 

[Spark]

Mind you, goes to show how good that partnership was. Especially if England get shot out here; regardless of what happens now they're well in the game.
