Already loosing time to the rain.

Still think Starc is going to be the liability here along with Watson.

Sorry should elaborate. If England are going to find a way through this Australian side, then the wayward Starc (It's not a White ball, his loose wide swinging ones got wickets in the WC because guys needed to score) and the terrible Watson will be where they need to make inroads.

Btw this pitch is a shower one. Seriously, they have as long as they like to prepare and they come up with this?

Turn on your TV and look. If the bounce isn't even semi-consistent on day 1, they've done a bad job.

Bill Manspeaker · July 08, 2015, 11:20:03 PM

this is all on you Hadds. whatever Root gets, you have to double

TV is on and uneven bounce is bad Root doesn't seem to have an issue with it?

Did Clarke just drop a catch or was that a replay from another time?

Bill Manspeaker · July 08, 2015, 11:27:14 PM

replay PB. they were talking about another time Root got dropped and went on to make 180

aahhhhhh hows that not carry

Bill Manspeaker · July 08, 2015, 11:46:53 PM
