*Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

[mackembhoy]

Where the **** was this calm approach to batting in the first two tests when we actually needed it

 

[91Jmay]

Bairstow looks in no form still, that last ball he pummels at his best. Ball swinging though which is nice indeed.

 

[Burgey]

Broad will probably argue it doesn't count again.

He’s on 587 wickets by his own (very limited) reasoning

 

[G. S. Kohli]

Ah crap.

Both Yorkshire men scored their 1st 15 runs with out 4 & 6

Still get 600 by end of series then

 

[social]

Truly awful stuff from Australia

 

[Saket1209]

Eng wasting time.

 

[Burgey]

He won’t have time if England keep batting like they are now

 

[Niall]

Brook has had a good series, but this is a junk 50 considering the context of the game.

 

[Burgey]

Lol Athers “the delights of Manchester”. Come on ffs

 

[RightArmMystery]

Brilliant. After slowing down to a crawl he goes and does that

 

[Saket1209]

Eng playing way too slow this morning

 

[White Ball]

Another wicket for Straya

 

[Wayner]

its been an odd session in terms of approach from the English

 

[Wayner]

Brook going might move this game on a bit quicker, could be a net positive for England

 

[Burgey]

Nervous wait there. You never know with the umpiring this series

 

[flibbertyjibber]

That catch was a 6 if the 4 yesterday was a 4 against Starc.

 

[morgieb]

Weird that the Poms aren't declaring. Seems like the perfect time for a mini-session with the ball.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Nervous wait there. You never know with the umpiring this series

Well yes. That one yesterday was a joke when they gave a 4. Brilliant fielding, only cost 1 run though.
