I bet America nicked the bobsleigh team for starters.

well they've nicked everything else from anyone else.

Win the toss, bat first and lose 8 wickets and they've been poor

 

[Stirlingsays]

Zero surprise.

England's team is continually over-hyped.

The bowlers now have a lot to do.

Michael Vaughan just saying the last 4 left their brains behind

England playing one day cricket while Australia play a test. There's no surprise really is there. No pressure on Australia to build an innings as slowly as they like.

Absolutely NOT surprised by the batting debacle.
I averred on HOL about my expected England batting collapses.
England cricketers from yesteryear steeped in Test match methodology as opposed to 'Bazball' must be wrenching their follicles from their pates. 👎 👎

A very England performance with the bat, the bowlers are making good progress though.

As I type this the Aussies have just lost another one!

Credit to the bowlers, however England still have to bat in this encounter and Zak Crawley will be deployed into action.

Good cricket teams should never collapse, we do it too often, thanks we have some bowlers.

Alas we are not a good test cricket team.
Perhaps at Test level 'Bazball' needs to give way to an approach more suited to the 5 day game.

A Brutal spell of bowling by Joffra and Carse.

Well done to both.I give credit when it is due.
I expect Australia to 'Steady the ship' with the lower order batsmen not collapsing A La England.

Aussies 61 for 4 with a poor tail to come.

They have a very weak tail the best of which is Lyon with the colossal average of 12.

I suppose headless would be the phrase,England now favourites for this test match.

 

[steeleye20]

Stokes - Aussies now 120-8, 50 behind.

I wonder what the shortest test match in Ashes history is.

😎

 

[Phil’s Barber]

One point needs to be made this is England's strongest tail ever.

Versus Australia’s who have three genuine No.11’s in theirs.

 

[Foxy82]

Wow, what an advert for test cricket 😂
Is this a hangover from The Hundred, T20?

Test Cricket is the only form of cricket that encompasses all the nuances and aspects of the game.
