Tough shit, indeed

As Bolty himself is probably saying right now

I'll bowl them - you whack 'em for 6!

Win toss and bowl

Dear rain.

DO ONE!

lovely start

What a last 10 minutes after they had a partnership going, Archer and Broad!

Woakes needs to step up

Fuck me I thought we were losing the Ashes today - needed that comeback badly!

 

Just got home in time to see Warne call 'going down' on a plumb lbw

5 for Archer, the first of so many, not even bowling 95mph in this innings

I'd have signed up for Aussies 300 all out very happily 2 hours ago. But I'll take this

Outstanding bowling , take a bow Jofra lad.

What happens with Anderson now

In for Woakes

 

Great day, let's be still batting at close tomorrow

As I've said, these teams are happy with 300

If I'm reet, for once, I'd take 300 and think it would be a match winner

Sorry for the late reply. The locals whingeing about how lucky we are. Only until I pointed ouit that we have lost the worlds best bowler - possibly for the entire series.

They only see things one way down here. Nothing changes.

Woakes has batted 3 innings so far. In each he's got into the 30's. Once he was top scorer and once he was third highest total in the England side.

If you take him out - your tail is Broad, Jofra, Leach, Jimmy.

Absolutely no way that happens given that our top order is terrible. Woakes stays in because he gives us a chance of scraping respectability down the order.

Jofra has a first class average over 30

Yeah - still Woakes plays. If Anderson comes in its for one of the out and out bowlers. Leach, Broad or Jofra. 

Fuck denley or Roy off

Gloves to buttler

Bairstow up the order

Then woakes, or curren, can be in as well as anderson
