3rd ASHES TEST: @ Headingley, Leeds July 6-10, 2023

[King-Gutho94]

Scary thing is if England don’t get their shit together this could end a whitewash…. And the whole, well “we were competitive” ( noting we seldom get three tests let alone five) argument in that context is acceptable in NZ, but not in England with the resources they have…

will Baz the great be looking for a new job?

Well they have sugar-coated a 2-0 deficit by whinging for 5 days about a decision that was correct.

 

[Fangs]

What are the chances of England getting another 15 days of rain free cricket? Same old Aussies are looking forward to the rain.

Best lock the doors during the rain breaks. Jonny or Broad might come knocking and they won't be bringing beers. Not that we should care, they have shit beer over there anyway.

"NOTHING TO LOSE"

I mean, only the Ashes. WTF?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Wtf is Fatslow doing there?

 

[Fangs]

Haha is Jonny looking at a mirror? Get stuffed mate.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Johnny : Stay quiet while I touch your taint.

 

[JokerEel]

Marsh is back

 

[Fangs]

Marsh is back

He will go alright I reckon. Has been okay with the ball in England in the past.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Green been out of touch with bat and ball anyway so we’re not really losing much. Levers is a decent fielder too.

 

[Chins get the wins]

If Marsh the spastic plays over Neser it's a disgrace

 

[Bazal]

Lol are we so confident of beating England that we'll play a literal Marsh brother?

 

[LeedsRhinos]

The comeback starts here (maybe)

 

[Twizzle]

If Marsh the spastic plays over Neser it's a disgrace

Neser is not an all rounder

 

[LeedsRhinos]

England win the toss and bowl

 

[hineyrulz]

Neser is not an all rounder

Neither is Darsh. This is a test match not a 20/20 slogfest.

 

[Twizzle]

Neither is Darsh.

wrong Marsh

 

[Fangs]

I don't think its down to Neser/Marsh.

Green bowled quite a few overs in the second test and if he pulled up sore then that explains it. They are thinking about that and if it goes to 2-1 then we want Green back fresh for the 4th test.

 

[Twizzle]

Poms win the toss and chose to field

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Hazlewood out, Boland in.
Green out, Marsh in.
Lyon out, Murphy in.

Definitely a weaker team but so are the poms.

 

[Twizzle]

dumb dropping Haze, he'll never get match fit if they keep rotating him, unless he's pulled up sore like Green
