*Official* Third Test (Headingley, Leeds) 6–10 July

[91Jmay]

That on drive is a beauty

 

[CartyDurham]

III - updates it every time he deliberately leaves a ball.

 

[Aidan11]

That's it Duckett. Keep the strike and protect the tailender.

 

[Uppercut]

It’s a pitch for aggressive batting. Great value for shots and a ball with your name on it is coming sooner or later so you might as well try to score.

 

[social]

It’s crazy how much bowling conditions have favoured England in this series

 

[Aidan11]

Wow that was lucky.

 

[91Jmay]

10% of the way there.

 

[Saket1209]

Thats a jaffa

 

[trundler]

This is real poor by Cummins. All over the place

EDIT: And again. Stop searching for magic balls and hit a length

I think he's just not found the line. Duckett cuts balls that are too fine too often so it's worth tempting him there. Cummins has just bowled too wide.

 

[CartyDurham]

Wow that was lucky.

I’m enjoying being slightly behind in anticipation of something happening

and yes it was

 

[ripper868]

Starc looking man most likely, Cummins looking like a pop gun right now.

He's not found the length either. Under and overpitching. Seems to be searching for wicket balls rather than just bowling normally

 

[Saket1209]

Runs coming all over the place. Love this

 

[Gob]

Starc hitting good rythem here

 

[CartyDurham]

Decent power play but can’t afford to lose a wicket

 

[Aidan11]

Annoying that you have to wait 30 seconds between posts. I want to vent my spleen every 10 seconds.

 

[subshakerz]

Odd how none of us wanted Starc to play this Ashes based on the WTC final.

 

[Saket1209]

Want eng to win so that series remain alive

 

[Uppercut]

I think he's just not found the line. Duckett cuts balls that are too fine too often so it's worth tempting him there. Cummins has just bowled too wide.

It’s unusual though. What made Cummins special IMO was being able to bowl back of a length without offering up ~any cuts.

 

[Spark]

Far better line in this over
