Starc looks too floaty compared to the others.

Can't believe we folded against this bowling

Had Starc not played against us, we might hv folded for much lower scores.

Halwa bowlers. 

Our batting doesn't have a Smith or root. That's why we are poor at batting. We could have easily chased vs aus. 

 

Our bowling ecennwithout 2 of our best bowlers bowled well enough in innings 2. Poor in the first one but it was flat. 

 

Batting was horrendous

These Eng and Aussie cricketers do so much charity, ours I hardly hear anything

Oz blew this one up when they should have batted through the best of conditions. Threw away wickets late last evening and collapsed this morning. I don't see them winning this game. Bazball needs roads and this is exactly what was served up.

Nor do we hv a T Head who can take the game away from the opponent in no time.  (In the absence of Pant)

You don't really have to be good agianst us. For kohli just throw the ball as wide as possible legally. He will finish the job for you.

And Gujara will miss a gazillion half volleys with his poor timing lol

Australia has huge problem going ahead in series. Cummins can't play 6 back to back tests for sure. Hazelwood looks done to me in test cricket. Starc is crap as always. They will attack boland, neser and others.

[vvvslaxman]

Green should stick to Mumbai Indians make his money.

Bazball is perfect for the aussie attack,they are not used to other teams going after them.

We provided the template long back. No team was following that. I think SA also did very well.

Pope is that sort of batter who will score quick runs but is likely to throw his wicket away in the mid 30s.   Lets see if that changes today.   

As predicted.  Pope throws away his wicket after getting 42.   LOL 

[rollingstoned]

Lol kya scam chalu hai. They have turned tests over there into 5 day long t20s.

Root gone! No ball wow dumb green

Not surprising. He has bowled several noballs. Par for the course.

[Frustrated]

Aussies are all over Eng.  Despite the flat wicket and the sun being out.  And despite Lyon being injured.    PS: Another no ball and root survives.  LOL

Green has bowled 4 no balls so far. In his 6 overs.
