5th Test Australia vs England @ Hobart 14-18 Jan 2022

[BunniesMan]

Test cricket gets a lot harder when the other side's openers look half way competent.

Might switch over to the BBL .and watch Lynn smash a quick century v Stars. Heat batting first ..

Ashes 3-1, we ain’t winning this one
Poms win this test by 6-7 wkts I’d imagine?

Good effort, reading your own press?

 

[BunniesMan]

I have a bad feeling that they will turn us over here and the game will be all but done by stumps. All of a sudden what looked like a 5-0 whitewash becomes a respectable 3-1 brave series loss for them

 

[pantherz9103]

To be honest a 3-1 series result is kind of credible for England and disappointing for Australia. We've not really improved at all from last summer and several of our 'big name' batsmen have had poor series. We've won on the back of some surprising good batting from the likes of Head and some mostly outstanding bowling, helped by a England team prone to collapse.

Tony Dodemaide eh, all the big guns get the big job

Haha f**k we have some miserable fans.

A loss in a dead rubber is meaningless. We've molested England

Lol f**king bullshit

 

[This Year?]

It's like having an hour with prime Jessica Alba and being spent after 45 minutes.

Gee DRS is a bit funny. Crawley was 11 yards down the track and and impacted on middle and leg and that was clipping?

Right

The Gold Standard for ruthlessness is the 06-07 Aussies and this current team are not in the same ball park.

Yeah I didn't think it was hitting either seeing it live.

I mean I'm not too surprised that they aren't in the same ballpark as a team full of the tail end of a once in a million years generation of talent, tbh.

England sacked up and bowled brilliant second innings. And they still need over 200 on a green deck under lights for another 40+ overs

No other side in the history of cricket is either

Yes it's obviously true that this current team isn't as talented but the supposed best and most talented batsmen in our team have had generally underwhelming series. Warner, Smith and even Labs haven't really performed up to expectations. Especially Smith!

45seconds

I'd be lucky to last 30.seconds

 

[Bazal]

Everyone's bowled a bit straight so far. Especially Patty which is unusual. Not really bowling a nicking line, more looking for the stumps. Bit if a waste of the new ball.

 

[Hutty1986]

Lol talk about running out of puff again in a home test series. The aussie attack looking verrrry flat. Need a wicket desperately

 

[This Year?]

Well played and what an effort from the maniac.

 

[This Year?]

It's all looking a bit desperate now.
