LOOOOL another day where the Aussies give half there wickets away. No mater the situation there swinging for sixes

Highlights of the day Warner taking a liking to Stuart's pies
Johnson treating Swann like the average spinner he really is

Ps: Clarke has not been the same since that Back injury can only imagine what he would have done to Stuart's pie pre back injury

Haddin and Mitchell saved Aus royally today. Get to 300 and let Johnno scare the **** out of bully boy Cook and Trott

Watson's DISMISALL loool the Aussie have zero respect for Broad's pies it is actually quite funny made funnier by the media acting as if Broad bowled a lethal spell lol. The aussies were treating his best bowls with attempted siz hits

NOT RESPECT i'm afraid which is actually making Broad look like a average/decent bowler

No surprise that the Aussies are having to rely on their lower order again for some runs after Broady tears through their top order once more, they simply do not have a clue

Broad ripped Australia apart lol.

I dont really rate broad.
I dont rate the england attack really, apart from anderson, Finn and swann.
Tremlett is a has been tbh.
Broad is ok.
Monty has hes days, but their few and far between. But depending on the kind of conditions of the crease.
So yea. Erm it will be closer than the last ashes for sure.
Englan will scrape it tho.

Still think they will tho,

Broad is better than Finn, Finn is too unreliable and expensive. I'd rather we played Rankin as our 3rd seamer but neither he, Tremlett or Finn are great, we could really do with Bresnan back

I would personally have Finn. I know hes inconsistent but sometimes you need that luxury item (uses the term loosely). Especially when you have a consistent bowler like Anderson, you can probably afford to use Finn.
Bresnan is good tho. I like him.

I just dont get the broad hype.
Rankin is also abit to erratic for my liking.

Broad getting boos after his 5th wicket smh

To be fair there were some applause from the aussies too, one of the best things about cricket when people can acknowledge when someone has played well

Broad seems like the type of player that feeds of all the boos and **** so they can keep doing it if they want

Broad was loving it out there

It looks like England are taking control of the Test match already.

This Australian team is simply nowhere near good enough to challenge the best.

The scorecard printed in a Brisbane paper today :joker: refusing to name Broad anywhere

If Aussie get to 350 this game is over

Mitchell's revenge is going to be brutal

They'll never get that, Harris won't last long and Lyon is a walking duck, 310/20 will be good for them

Lyon and HARRIS IN PARTICULAR are more then decent batters so I would not get to comfortable. Both are more then good enough to give Haddin the strike who took a liking to Stuart's and Swann's pies

Aus will get AT LEAST 325 BOOK IT

Lyon is useless :joker: complete genuine no. 11, bring Swanny on and he'll have him first ball

26 overs
0 wickets
80 runs

Yes Mitchell was TERRIFIED of Swann's pies yesterday lol. What you English fans need to release is Swann is utterly clueless when he don't have a pitch turning 180 from day 1

325 I will be waiting for your tears

I give the Aussies 20 minutes this morning

I'm cringing so hard at the Broad love in. He was bowling pies all day yesterday ZERO of his wickets were due to good bowling yet the media are making him sound like McGrath

Also cringing hard them thinking he has the wool over Clarke's eyes lol. It's quite clear his back is still ****ed and has not been the same since the tour of India

Clarke gets undone by Broad's short ball every single time, it is a beautiful sight

Harris putting Broad to the sword fml

think i deserve a nice peaceful night watching the Ashes after dealing with Apple's Crew

Nice and easy end to the innings just as I thought, and unsurprisingly just the opposite to what LK thought

no more shouting HOWSATTTTTTT for a while now then

Looked pretty dam good too me

Haddin playing as if the run rate required was 20 an over

http://ebengregory.com/wp-content/up...j-laughing.gif

Now for the main even it's Mitch time

DIS GUN BE GUD

Haddin had to play like that because he had the walking duck at the other end

http://ebengregory.com/wp-content/up...j-laughing.gif

Perfect conditions now for England to settle down and bat all day

England will get to at least 400 here, 500 wouldn't surprise me.

Have not got past 400 this summer but will get 500 against Johnno Siddle and Rhino

DAT KNOWLEDGE

A walking duck shame Boycott doesn't share your view on how Lyon was batting

Carberry to make a double century

What's going on with Carberry's helmet

Some kind of space age lid

Bloody hell Cook

Wonder if Johnson will bowl an off side ball today
