Same old Aussies always cheating

Jeez. Aussie fielding has been ridiculously good.

Ha! Or not

I really dislike Smith

He’s not easy on the eye when he’s batting for annoyingly long in tests. Funny the T20 WC final I was watching he was bowling absolute pies and batting at 8.

Going down to the wire! Great fightback from England

Blimey! Did not expect that

Crikey!

Beating Australia is always so rewarding but especially so when they were absolutely cruising.

Never in doubt.

Not for one moment

Glorious to beat ’em; especially as it seemed they had it all sewn up mid-way through their innings.

Yup they must be feeling gutted

Shame

Wee bit of karma for them giving us Tony bloody Abbot.

Warner.

HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa

HaHaHaHaHa

Hahaha!

Carey!

HaHaHaHaHa

Smith

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

He wasn’t happy!

He was a well out of his crease though. Outstanding fielding, too.

Smashing.

Lovely that

Game on!

Can they bottle another?

Afternoon, evereeeebodeee.

The season rumbles on!

Morgan and Roy both available, weather looks good.

Last over nailbiter, please!

*lays out tartan blanket and opens flask of tea*

Afternoon

Afternoon all. Lovely day for it.

Not a bad start, that.

Needed that from Wood. They were starting to get going.

Morning everyone…

How I’ve missed TMS: “the way Stoinis is built, he knows where the dumbbells are in the gym, he’s a proper unit…”

Wood!

Anyone else getting annoyed by the “toooooooot uh uh” every few minutes on the crowd noise. All blimmin summer, and there’s no option for no crowd noise for this game

The Beeb text commentary is a joy. Along with chat about Thomas the Tank Engine is this gem;

Another lovely over from Rashid. Australia are playing him like they are searching for their car keys in a dark room.

And another falls as I type!

Keep typing

My favourite from my playing days to describe a decent leggie with variations was:

“Harder to pick than a broken nose”.

Some proper “A lovely shot from a lovely Victorian there” Bill Lawry-style commentary on the go. “Those wrists don’t laie”.

Bonus that’s a proper ODI though, I thought was another T20 (#notpropercricket)

ahaaaa, Maxwell’s gone, just after whichever Aussie commentator started chatting about ODI centuries…

I was reading about a ‘T10 Premier League’ game in the WI earlier, one team won with a score of 185. :-/

FFFFS

Aussie bowlers are very good but Bairstow is starting to lose the plot here. Why can’t he bat like this in a test match? 😛

Some serious double screen action today! Tour and cricket to keep an eye on!
