Michael Neser?

Marnus is so fucking lucky.

Buttler is a dogshit Test keeper, though. Christ.

Wouldn't be near the team if he wasn't liked because of his white ball stuff. That was a pathetic drop. No excuse for that.

Commentators being overly kind on the first one: saying it was a tough chance. Second one: surely one of the worst drops ever. Given he's meant to be a keeper, that was worse than Denly's spill of Williamson.

Siri, show me the definition of "Village".

I think this is why England went with 4 frontline pace bowlers plus Stokes, rather than including a true spinner. They can't leave him out, but just in case he breaks down...

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 6:12 am**

Why don't Australia just flick Harris and promote all the top order batters one place?

1. Warner
2. Labuschagne
3. Smith
4. Head
5. Green

By then they'll have a thousand runs on the board, so why persist with all these other failed "specialist" openers?

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 6:29 am**

The next session is crucial for England. If they don't bowl Australia out I reckon they're fucked.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 6:49 am**

England were fucked when they lost the toss.

Warne talking shit as usual.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 8:14 am**

Burns is not Broad's favourite cricketer.

Gives him an earful for not cutting off the leg glance from Smith at leg gulley, and then he throws five overthrows.

England were fucked before they left for Australia.

Wicket for England.....but Neser and Starc were having the time of their lives out there.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:48 am**

Cracking T20 wicket, this.

473/9 declared. Another absolute pounding on the horizon.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 9:57 am**

Recurring theme of Root's captaincy is being completely clueless against the tail. Horrendous viewing.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 10:06 am**

Richardson has no leap at the crease at all, very odd.

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 10:09 am**

Excellent work by Burns to last until the third over

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 10:31 am**

Good Lord that's a bad shot, Hameed.

12/2 on a flat pitch. Woohoo!

Posted: **Fri Dec 17, 2021 10:31 am**

Jesus that was pathetic. Soft as you get to a rather innocuous delivery

Good debut for him so far.

Is there a point where England get stripped of competing for the Ashes?

Replace them with India or something?

Aussies enjoy beating us far too much to let that happen.

It's the hope that kills you... it's like the little fat kid going to the school prom thinking he's going to pull the prom Queen. It's crushing to the soul every time...

I will drink excessively, sing on occasion, but those twats hardly watch the cricket....

Re drinking to excess, did I ever tell you guys the easiest way to get 3L of wine into a ground (that isn't Lord's)
