9 to 5 Posted November 20, 2013 Report Share Posted November 20, 2013 I was very happy for George Bailey, I am glad that angel stopped him jumping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornswoggle4PM Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Australia 6/139 near the end of the second session, Broad's got the first 4 wickets and nobody has been able to reach fifty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Lineker Posted November 21, 2013 Admin Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 273/8 at the close of play. Haddin making it more respectable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Respectable, yes, but not a great total, they would have been hoping to double that by the end of their first innings, England have had a great first day (night?), if we manage to get them out for less than 300 it will give us a great and very achievable target, especially as it really looks like a batting wicket.

I don't think the Aussies could've realistically expected any more than about 400, seeing as Johnson and Haddin had to rescue the constantly struggling batting order. From what I've heard it's a good batting wicket though, so England could easily get a 100+ run lead going into the second innings'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plubby Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Australia will take that from where they were. Bowlers have a lot of work to do. This will be close or a blowout based on, as always, Which Mitch? (will show up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hornswoggle4PM Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 What a turnaround. One minute Carberry was doing really well, next thing it's 6/ less than 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazz Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 This is like an Ashes series from the late 90's. I'm half expecting Steve Waugh to come in to mop up the tailend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornswoggle4PM Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 If recent Ashes series are any indication, look for Tremlett and Anderson to put on a 100 run stand a la McGrath and Gillespie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
