The Ashes 2019
Re: The Ashes 2019
That's one way of sending Smith back to the pavilion, first try and break his arm then give him a severe blow to the neck at 93 mph. Ouch!
Aussie's are now 204-6 with Smith retired hurt and being checked for concussion.

Re: The Ashes 2019
Smith back on the field, score is now 218-7. This guy is tough considering the battering he's had from Archer.
Smith now on 84.
Edit :- He's now on 88..................

Re: The Ashes 2019
What's happening with Roy and Root...I remember when Root used to be getting the big runs
Re: The Ashes 2019
England have been extremely lucky during the last 15 minutes and could easily be 5 wickets down, currently it's 41-2.
Roy needs to bat further down the order and Root should have the captaincy taken off him to concentrate on his batting, much like what happened to Ian Botham many years ago - which worked a treat.

Re: The Ashes 2019
The start of play was delayed until 12.10 due to rain, England are currently 107-4.

Re: The Ashes 2019
Could be interesting with Smith out of the test
Re: The Ashes 2019
Yup! This could get very interesting.
England are 262 ahead, Stokes is on 112 and Root is about to declare.

Re: The Ashes 2019
Certainly could be...wonder if they'll declare at 300 and try and bowl out the Aussies?
Re: The Ashes 2019
I think they'll declare at 258-5.

Re: The Ashes 2019
Mike the fortune teller! I stepped away for 5 minutes
Re: The Ashes 2019
You could tell that Root was about to declare because one of the staff held up 3 fingers to the batsmen from the player's balcony - that meant there were 3 overs to go.
If they'd waited to get 300 then they would have run out of time to bowl out the Aussies.
Get Archer on!!!!

Re: The Ashes 2019
Warner is a walking wicket and Bancroft is in a poor run
9? Smith is out with concussion
