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

Warner gotta come out and slash I reckon no use trying to crawl to a 50 ball 20 here. Time for the old Warner

 

[91Jmay]

Australia yet to collapse properly this tour

Still time

Didn't they lose 6 for absolutely nothing in one of the innings?

With his sharp hair and old school glasses Murphy would have made a good dweeb in a silent era film.

We currently have old Warner, that's the problem.

350-400 deck. England well under par there.*

*haven’t seen a ball bowled but that’s what you say when the other team gets bowled out in the first innings of the test regardless of the actual score so you feel better about yourself and your own team.

There definitely under par now when they were like 170-3 runs are to be scored if you mix defense and
Aggression well this pitch I think

First innings at Headingley iirc.

Little known fact, he actually played Fuller McCallister in the first 2 Home Alone films.

Why have England roped in some 12 year old to field

 

[KungFu_Kallis]

Beware the likeable Englishman. There are only four in the world and Woakes is one of them. They con you into being happy for them but deep down they’re as evil as the rest.

You have soft spots for that many? Are you sure some are not Scottish?

Spirit of the game, get it out to the youngsters etc.

 

[wpdavid]

Woakes is off the pitch. If that's a recurrance of the injury he was carrying after Old Trafford, why on earth is he playing here?

Mark Ealham's son apparently. Expect to become a slightly tubby dibbly-dobbler who makes the odd cameo with the bat.

Or he was just getting a bit of strapping on/having a ****

 

[loterry1994]

Yeah this is gonna be tough for Warner

 

[RightArmMystery]

Jimmy 10fer incoming.

 

[ripper868]

Uzzi not looking comfy out there right now, not looking forward to when Broad gets a look at Warner.

anyway, 7-450 after 110overs wont be so bad to reach stumps with tomorrow.

I'm now working through the options for the final word of your reply.

So far, I've come up with ****, **** and ****.

I mean he'd be relatively fine even if they gave him the gloves.
