Cracking cat h Root. Stokes decision not to take the new ball right away paying dividends.

 

Australia was mind_f**ked by England in several moments with their field set, bowling rotation, choice of deliveries.

Time for Australia to shut shop and wait for the imminent rain.

Too late with the new ball at hand. Sixteen overs too far.

Amazing how tight bowling, good field sets and a great captain can make even a docile track look like a land mine. 

 

If this was India, they'd have given up after the opening partnership yesterday itself.

 

India would win the match much earlier on their home, or even such track

Mind game was outstanding from England. They pretended to take new ball. Delayed it. Forcing Carey to take extra risk before new ball.

On paper this England bowling attack is mediocre but this is a 200 IQ marshalling of troops

Anyone who saw Paksitan series fully will understand how they play with your mind both while bowling and batting. In order to overcome this side you need a very spicy condition and some bowlers to use it.

Yes. mentioned before the match. That is their strength. Mind games. Tactics. I can relate to how MSD does this with mediocre bowling units.

Eng are so lucky to have the charismatic Stokes. Inspirational captain, street smart cricketer with a will to win. Got the important wicket of Khwaja, brilliant bowling changes. Great captaincy throughout and the players are behind him 100% .. That Root over was a mastermove even though new ball was available. Bounced out Head when he came in, didn't give him anything to score. 

 

And we have full of selfish greedy pos players led by braindead Fatty and a dus coach. Amazing to watch this Eng team.

Australia have looked pretty defensive today.

They haven't been allowed to score anything. Disciplined bowling by everyone plus thay have saved everything. Ground fielding has been amazing.

Nope, negative batting did Oz. Nothing in this patta pitch.

Even with weak bowling he can win with his own batting
