11/0 off 3 overs. Not bad. Australia haven't really created a chance and LBW was a stupid one to review

Wrong decision at the toss due to sheer stupidity, bowling has been okay at best.
Depending on how much longer I watch I fully expect to wake up and see England scored 5/450.

Shouldn't have played the way he's bowled so far.

As I’ve said this we’ve bowled a whole lot of junk.

Should always be Cummins and Starc the new ball

Got to wonder if sticking to the best side bessies XI is the way to go... :
Anderson : 4 wkts @ 76.75
Ali : 6 wkts @ 64.50
everyone else for England who's bowled and taken a wicket average smidge over 30 (30.20, Tongue) or under. Ali is averaged 23.40 with bat in the series but thanks to a 54, far from brilliantly made and near half his series runs. Pope the only batsman not to average 34+, Woakes, Ali and Robinson all averaging around the 19-23 mark
Starc, Cummins and Hazlewood have taken 44 wickets between them, Wood, Broad, Robinson and Woakes 51 between them, 12 apps for England quartet, 10 for the aussie trio. Warner with average 25 the lowest of the aussie batsman averages, Crawley surprisingly most runs so far in the series ahead of Khawaja and needing just 8 more now to reach 400...

Hazlewood getting smacked around like a baby, looking less effective than Anderson

Haze looks about as threatening as a bowling machine out there.

Makes me feel sick!!
Anyway, 2 decent overs from Starc with the new ball, now we're into full on Bazball.
IMO Anderson hasn't bowled worse than Robinson. Tongue probably unlucky and as much as I am against sentiment Jimmy is one of the few who deserves Ashes send off imo.

That 5-fer was good for England. Had he gone 1/100 I reckon he might’ve been dropped.

The bgt was retained in the second test itself. 17 was a competitive series this wasn't.
Something Nasser mentioned that the fielders outside of ring/deeper in ring does make sense against England as we get ourselves out but not as much for Crawley/Duckett as it lets them rotate and get starts when you can pressure them to hit boundaries early. It's good against middle order but they should adjust with new ball imo.
