4th Ashes Test: Australia v England @ SCG Jan 5-9, 2022

[Bazal]

Snicking didn’t seem to align with ball on bat . Or my eyes failing me?

I defs thought there was a tiny feather. Only on replay obvs, was getting ready to put shit on the third umpire, there was a very small hotspot-ish mark on the shoulder of the bat. Might not have been an actual hotspot but old mate didn't even seem to see it, warranted more than his one look.

 

[Bazal]

Haha is Labs for real? Your eyes are way too close together mate that's nowhere near

 

[Smug Panther]

Why is Labs still bowling? This is strange stuff

 

[Bazal]

Oh no, they're saying Leach got hit on the finger last over.

How will he turn it now?

Wait....

 

[JJ]

N

Snicko didn’t seem to align with ball on bat . Or my eyes failing me?

Nope, didn’t look right, who knows, doubt should have gone to batter imo

 

[TheParraboy]

Great ton Jonny B

Bringing some life into a dead rubber

 

[JJ]

If Crawley can bowl he can just swap with Jack

 

[Bazal]

Fair knock that.

I like this Test. Two massive f**k yous to two f**kwit coaches

 

[Smug Panther]

If the Poms had a full ginger 11 they might have the ticker to make a ashes series interesting

 

[hineyrulz]

Nice ton by the fat day Walker.

 

[Fangs]

Good knock from Bairstow.

Where was this fight and purpose earlier in the series? Needed to attack Lyon from the start of the series.

 

[JJ]

Two truly great 100s this test

 

[pantherz9103]

After a great first session, puzzled by some of the bowling today and bowling choices today. England might pull off the draw and regain some pride.

 

[hineyrulz]

The heading on Cricket Aus website said Gutsy Bairstow scores 100.


LOL nice pun.

 

[JJ]

Fair knock that.

I like this Test. Two massive f**k yous to two f**kwit coaches

This, so much

 

[Eelectrica]

Hats off to Jonny B. I should have watched it.
Good to see some fight in England. Looked like they were about ready to pack up and go home at lunch.

 

[marshall stalin]

I was listening to him getting aggro, I think he needs his afternoon nap.

Beefy Botham has gone home though ?

 

[marshall stalin]

That short pitch bowling is what they do in T-20 - More of a hope that the Batsmen makes a mistake by hitting the ball in the air to be caught in the outfield - a low percentage play at best.

They pitch the ball up to the recognised batsman bringing in a range of modes of dismissals - caught behind and in slips/bowled/LBW.

As the tail end are not recognised batsmen the same type of bowling should be employed as their defence and technique are not as good so a greater chance of dismissing them by these modes I mentioned above.

What has also happened to the yorker the most under utilised delivery in any form or cricket and why is this not used more?

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Australia and Bairstow got what they deserved. Shit bowling and a well deserved ton to Bairstow.
Bravo.

How close can the bald man and the fat man get to Australia's score?
