Can you add "can't catch" as well please

Now that made me laugh nearly as much as Stokes no ball today 😉

I always found it funny we have "World Championships" in Baseball and Basketball that include 2 countries.

Nice comeback from England today, just 58 runs behind 😉

Though from my experience, there’s still time for them to balls it up and lose the next 8 wickets for 57 runs…

We go to at least several days on a test when they’re in the UK. I was at headingkey for days 1, 2 and 3 in 2019 (but frustratingly not day 4 to see Stokes finish it off!).

The Aussie tests are always a bit weird. Generally they coincide perfectly with when I’m in bed so I get to see an hour of play at most - which is generally a good thing!! When the kids are a little older we’ll hopefully get across for a Few tests and a holiday. In the meantime, I might just watch the highlights from today.

Well, my prediction was not made in jest, I’ve seen it happen so many times before 😬

But, being a dual citizen, now I can celebrate a convincing victory for Australia 😁

Catches win matches….

Buttler takes a beauty
But drops Labushagne on 21 and on 95 that was a sitter…..

Hot day in the sun for England tomorrow with 37C forecast 😎


Graph just showed only 5% of balls bowled all day were bowled at the wickets……🤪

Absolute garbage from England. Just get on the plane and save us any further embarrassment.

I wish that the Australian government had blocked the England Cricket team's arrival into the country on the grounds of 'stopping the potential damage the health of the nation'. That is both nations by the way, Aussies dying of laughter as they watch our pitiful attempts to play cricket and us English beating ourselves up (again) on our inability to play the game.

OMG we are abysmal.

🙁

The amount of extras is funny

The lack of catching is a crack up

The No Ball wickets are bloody hilarious

The 5% of balls a whole innings bowled at the stumps…. Got nothing as you would do that to stop a team scoring wouldn’t you !?
