Yeah I don't think it is flat as people are saying.Despite all the talk of a roady-road, there's been an odd ball that have done a bit.
Australia's session though clearly.
He could play across the line with confidence without moving his feet and still couldn't ton up.It's hard to be disappointed with 61 from Crawley but him tonning up day 1 after everything said would have been sodding amazing.
Feels like England have let a good position slip here but it was probably always going to be about the middle order anyway
Playing back and missing a straight one? Ball did nothing special, should be worried that he hasn't learnt anything all these years.Pope the wicket that has really bothered me.
Think it's pretty flat tbh. Might turn laterYeah I don't think it is flat as people are saying.

Agreed, three wickets in the session having lost the toss on a flat deck is definitely an Aus victory.Apart from Hazlewood's bowling, thought Australia were pretty ordinary but I think they won the session with that final wicket.
It's meant to be a bit flat on the first day of a Test match, honestly what do people want. very weird. It's perfectly average as flatness goes I'd say.Think it's pretty flat tbh. Might turn later
Looked to me like he was about to walk until Erasmus for some reason gave it not out.crawley twice has a chance to do a noble thing and twice looks to cheat instead
An hour of Australia toiling and they want demerit points, it is what it is.It's meant to be a bit flat on the first day of a Test match, honestly what do people want. very weird. It's perfectly average as flatness goes I'd say.

Three down at lunch on a bounce-less road under sunny skies on day one is in front for the bowling side mate. Usual rule of thumb is if you win the toss and bowl on a green deck you want three before lunch to be in front.Yeah, you're miles ahead given our four best batsman are either in or to come and we have 120 on the board
