RIP Phil Hughes.

Forever young. Forever 63*.

f**k up KP

"Why is it the correct hand? The game has changed! Turn the other way!"

"Because a batsman naturally watches the ball..."

"That's correct, that's why it's the correct hand"

f**k. Up.

There needs to be a filter on channel 9 to be able to to select only the commentators you want to hear

KP is absolutely unbearable

KP is a bell end.

 

[King hit]

Win by 10 come on lads

Gee this Ball is the definition of Plod.

 

[Tommy Smith]

I notice Bancroft is 56* grom 155 balls.

Is he incessantly copping shit from the braindead comms about his run rate like Renshaw received in a similar 4th innings chase last year?

 

[Tommy Smith]

Also lol @ people who gave England a chance. Cute.

You now see what I saw all along.

We f**king shit.

Yeah but we can collapse with the best of them. I think I said 3-1 Australia? I stand by that rough guess. Pink ball test might simulate some English swing and even if we get over the line there I reckon you normally get one test affected by rain, plus Root can score big runs and put us under pressure and Broad is always capable of getting a big haul.

 

[hineyrulz]

That’s a shot!!

Bangers to 60.

Its just your shitness is worse than our shitness.

 

[blaza88z]

This will go down as a comfortable victory but it could've so easily have been a comfortable victory for England, Steve Smith was the difference

 

[Tommy Smith]

Its just your shitness is worse than our shitness.

Essentially.

And in that situation home ground advantage is King.

We're relying on two old quicks and have nothing else.

You at least have 3 great quicks in their 20s, albeit two of them fragile. And even Sayers would be handy.

As for the batting, ours are as shit in Australia as yours would undoubtedly be in England (minus the modern GoaT obviously).

I told my mate to take the $10 on offer for 4 nil and $15 for 5 nil and it's looking like free money.

2 shit teams, shit turnout by the crowd, shit result.

WE ARE THE PLODLAND

Clarke wants Bancroft to block it out so Davey can ton up.
Sounds great, until everyone is bagging Bancroft for a slow run rate.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

England have no turn of foot,run of the race batting first and they plodded to the finish line

 

[LeedsRhinos]

Australia are getting ready to celebrate with all 20 fans who decided to show up and see them win..

 

[_snafu_]

Plodland.
