Kamboj type, constantly at 129-133

 

Please don't insult the debutant 

[Lone Wolf]

Only one guy with 140+ pace has troubled so far...

England have all 4 of them.

[vvvslaxman]

Austrlaian batting is rubbish guys. Don't forget.  England has 5 bowlers including stokes

But pitch is pacy. So that's okay as long as he hits the length

Yes our trundlers are one of a kind 

Apart from being trundlers,they are too wayward for their pace 

[putrevus]

Interesting to see Brook by here.

[Lone Wolf]

Jeez Brook Abhishek Sharma type shot... Love it 

[wanted_desi]

Love cricket in Australia. When are we going there next?

[maniac]

Brook  this is what I am talking about. Rahul, Jadeja. sundar would have shut stop at 30-3

[New guy]

Difference is, if Brook gets out playing like this, England fans won't abuse him like our oldies do for Pant

[Lone Wolf]

This could be final Starc over ...attack others

Saved by Rain in the last test. Also Stokes dropped Lyon. Otherwise it would have been 3-1 England.

ifs and buts. Aus has been stronger over the years

[Nikola]

Still England's match to loose. Australia don't have bowling to get 20 wickets in this match.

[MK55]

Would be fun if Starc yorks this Brook

Yes ideal comparison should be with Mukesh

[vvvslaxman]

I don't think  any English player has half decent defensive technique.

They might if he plays a irresponsible shot that directly impacts the result though  all fans are touchy.

I don't think England have it in them to beat Australia in Australia. It's like Pakistan against India in world cup, no matter what each teams strength is, one team always wins.

I am saying  India is not  a worse attack because of the wickets we played there. Australia also struggled. In Australia  Bumrah would have wreaked havoc against England.
