2nd Ashes Test: Australia v England at Adelaide, Dec 2-6 2017

[Bazal]

We’ll be right you nervous nellies. England are not batting well enough to chase 300

I don't think we'll lose. But we gave up a hugely commanding position, no way we don't get 2-3 wickets of our own in this session and the way England have been batting we could have taken a lot more....we had the opportunity to have them in a position where they had 5 wickets left and 150+ runs to even make us bat again, instead we're 4/50

A role reversal would see the Poms trailing by 160ish with 6 wickets in the shed and a dressing room awash with a sense of dispair.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

You're all as drunk as Root for bowling first and Smith for not enforcing ghe follow on if you still give England any sort of chance from here.

We won't get within 100.

England will win by 3 wickets. Cook or Root will ton up.

Exactly. It's not necessarily about losing from here. It's the position we gave away

 

[BunniesMan]

Never seen a test batsman look like an amateur as much as Handscomb. And yet somehow he has a bloody good record.

[Hutty1986]

Because he was fortunate enough to be in the side for home series against NZ and Pakistan

 

[Pete Cash]

Lyon mate just pull out of a shot and say there is a bug in my eye

 

[Timbo]

Stretch it out Nath, stretch it out.

 

[some11]

Lmao Lyon, well done.

 

[blaza88z]

He's milking better than Jarryd Hayne

 

[Eelectrica]

Good tactics Lyon. Get off the field now.

 

[8Ball]

Taking one in the nuts for the team

 

[Timbo]

Look at the physio, get that man some acting classes.

Easy to say all that in hindsight. But it’s Adelaide and our bowlers have just bowled 70 odd overs. If you enforce the follow on and England get a couple of partnerships then you have a problem.

You have to bat and back yourself to make it to stumps. Unfortunately we lost a few but we’re still on top and the bowlers get a rest. We’ll be right.

 

[Tommy Smith]

I hope the umps allow another over after that time wasting.

The GOAT hit in the pills with 2 balls remaining.

Quality work from the GOAT.
