Go look at the figures and economy rates. Cummins is head and shoulders above. Mosher and express bowling 2 Link to comment
Geoff Boycott Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Archer is the best bowler since Fred Trueman But seriously, this is wonderful to watch. It'll be a draw, but what a debut. Jimmy can take as long as he needs to recover. Link to comment
Kronadler Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Cunning Poms so desperate, resorting to bodyline tactics yet again. They got Smith successfully out of the game. Mission accomplished. Aussies should bring back Starc and return it kind. Link to comment
Kronadler Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 But hey this is so much more exciting to watch than Indian cricket at the moment. Link to comment

Kronadler Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Throwback to 2008 Edgbaston.... 2:15 you get a look at what it’s like facing a ball that quick. Link to comment
Kronadler Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Ominous clouds rolling in. It appears play will be interrupted in the last session by rain. Link to comment
Nikola Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 Labuschagne has looked decent. Can replace anybody from aus top 3. express bowling 1 Link to comment
Nikola Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 Eng don't know how to use archer. Hope they don't repeat same they did with devon malcolm. Link to comment
Kronadler Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Unbelievable, Aussie openers have gotten so bad. Last time I recall such a predicament was when Wood and Darling took the crease. Sigh. Link to comment

Sigh. warner has always been more of a home track bully, and they have struggled to find a partner for him. if not for smith (and rain), this team would lose the ashes by 4-0 or something like that. the Oz attack is a very fine one, but the batting is falling to pieces. hard to believe that only about 10-15 yrs ago there was a lineup of: langer, hayden, ponting, clarke/waugh, martyn, lehmann, gilly Link to comment
