Ball is turning so big. Get Root on. Game will be over real fast

[vvvslaxman]

In the first Test Moeen went out injured. They relied on Root.

Woakes' avg bowling speed in all 3 tests has been around 130.  Yet he has been picking bucketload of wickets.  Why do our trundlers who bowl at the same speed look so helpless and go wicketless in SENA??

 

Our bowls little quicker but arent consistent.

Cummins needs to be relieved of his captaincy. It has been disastrous this series. Just too much to do.

Snapping of his wrists makes all the difference. Our bowlers are mostly hit the deck bowlers.

All fairness, they batted like duds in the first innings and are paying dearly now. Also, rain and ballgate killed it for OZ this match.

Carey needs to carry them home

They still got a lead. Didn't bowl well in 3rd innings at all.

[vvvslaxman]

No sympathy for Australia. They had all the benefit like Rain and everything. If they can't get away with draw it shows their mediocrity.  Still pissed off at how we couldn't beat this garbage Aussies.

That piddly squat lead was nothing.

They would have got draw if they wanted. Went for win too early.

So did England yesterday. They were sweating for wickets. The rain came and fukked up all the momentum for the Aussies.

Yes but both teams batted badly. Aus bowling in 3rd innings was decisive difference.

They came back today. Aus threw in the towel too soon.

Australia has this collapse syndrome always. Except during ALan border days even the ATG Aussies collapsed a few times in 4th innings. I remember there was one match they collapsed dramatically chasing sub 200 total in 4th innings.

No, the ball change was the biggest scam that changed the match. getting a 6 over ball was a scam gift.
