Guest Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Mark Wood bowling absolute GAS in the warm ups apparently. Could be a huge difference from the 78mph bouncers of Anderson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldjamfan1 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 This is some spell from Wood - lightning quick. Khawaja had no answer to it. 42/2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Need them out for less than 300 to justify opting to bowl. Good start but long way to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Bairstow drops another! I wonder how much his performance in the first two tests contributed to our defeats? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasn’t a drop, goodness me John, it was out of his reach off Smith. England could be batting before the days out here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 It was a chance without doubt, TMS certainly thought so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Definitely a drop. England won't be batting today if they throw away chances like that. They all have to be taken 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim mk2 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Bairstow caught one in 3. It's not good enough really. 85-4. England must not let them off the hook from here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilsdenrover Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Good session but we really need to pick our best wicketkeeper. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norbert Rassragr Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Bairstow really needs to be out of the wicket keeper's gloves. You may as well not pick a wicket keeper his form is that bad. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilsdenrover Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I’d have played Foakes instead of Ali and had Root as our spinner. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Both these batters dropped to straightforward chances Bazball is pointless if you don't do the basics right Should be about 100-6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 In the series so far Bairstow has converted just 9 of 16 chances behind the wicket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted July 6, 2023 Moderation Lead Share Posted July 6, 2023 Far too many dropped catches this series. Then, think about how many no balls. Us not doing the basics is far more of a problem than Bazball, for me. They say it’s the hope that kills you- there was me, thinking we were on, with getting Warner, Labuschagne and especially Smith out…. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim mk2 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Good old England..... giving up a hard-won advantage through poor basic cricket skills. In each Test we've had been on top at some point but failed to keep hammer home the advantage. This third Test is possibly being lost in this session 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiled_Rover Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 This match is a hard watch. The two Yorkies dropping absolute dollies and a slogger smashing a century in about a session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may as well not pick a wicket keeper his form is that bad. It's nothing to do with form - he's overweight and wasn't the most mobile to start with.
