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

[Spofforth]

Should need gloves by now.

 

[morgieb]

Man, we’re never gonna take another wicket. Can see Australia winning this Test. Pathetic!

[/morgiemode]

Ha, this pitch is genuinely playing better than I expected. Age of the ball probably helps tbf. Still early days though.

 

[CartyDurham]

[morgieb]

Think he’s going to have to retire hurt

Only if we can concuss his hand.

How many ****ers do you need to bring out drinks and the magic spray?

How many ****ers do you need to bring out drinks and the magic spray?

One was telling Marsh when to go down with a back spasm.

 

[Ali TT]

Bairstow standing up, lol

 

[Silver Silva]

Well if you can get play on a day like this..Hats off to the ground staff

Bairstow standing up, lol

How unlucky would you have to be for him to catch an edge?

 

[Chrish]

Has Jimmy ever looked as toothless as he did this series at home?

 

[social]

Yep

Ball left & he clangs it

 

[Daemon]

Yep

Ball left & he clangs it

Yeah there's no way he's pouching one

 

[CarlsbergXpress]

Feels a bit flat, need something to happen. Ashes on the line boys, come on!

 

[Ali TT]

To think 8 of Marsh's 13 off 51 have come from a slash through point and a mistimed slog over midwicket.

 

[Qlder]

Bairstow standing up to the stumps to Anderson and Broad is not a good look for the oldies

 

[Viscount Tom]

He was stood up for Woakes too, no that he's young.

 

[slowfinger]

well at least Bairstow is feeling confident again

 

[Daemon]

Stokes should bring himself on. Golden arm.

 

[slowfinger]

Anderson literally has grey hair
