1st Ashes Test: Australia v England @ Gabba Dec 8-12, 2021

[Sphagnum]

That was definitely a plan first ball of the innings. Perfectly executed by Starc.

 

[Sphagnum]

Good boy!

 

[JJ]

Woakes batting and no AntiLag, doesn't seem right...

Englanding batting and no Tommy, doesn't seem right

 

[Meth]

Green breaks the drought

 

[hineyrulz]

Greeny!!!!

 

[Bazal]

Good lad Greeny.

 

[jargan83]

Onya Greeny - Brilliant catch from Hazelwood

 

[edabomb]

That's a fairly astronomically massive call

I'm standing by it. I'm getting 06, 13 and 17 flashbacks.

 

[Sphagnum]

Green needed that monkey off his back

 

[Hutty1986]

Greeny's average slashed to 124

 

[hineyrulz]

Match is evenly poised.

 

[Sphagnum]

Some pretty limp wristed batting by the soap dodgers

 

[mave]

Evenly poised, and batting first was definitely the right call.

 

[Sphagnum]

Greeny's average slashed to 124

He has made a significant contribution with the bat and was poorly deployed last summer with the ball

 

[Hutty1986]

You're gonna make me Cummins!

 

[some11]

This lowish total wouldn't seem too bad if Eng had a full compliment of first rate bowlers.

I can see a couple of our bozos getting ducks as well.

 

[Sphagnum]

Poor green. Gets a wicket and gets hooked

 

[Eelectrica]

Whilst the legendary Woakes is out there England are never out of the game. 300 still on the cards.

 

[Meth]

I don't really know the ins and outs of keeping, but Carey seems to have been tidy enough

He’s actually caught the ball which puts him ahead of Wade. His lack of chat is a major concern though
