Didledee Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 99 not out, well played but that gotta hurt a little Quote
Wanderlust Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Match and the Ashes must largely rest on what England do with the new ball. Hoping Jimmy will swing it round corners and knock a few of them over today. Quote

Didledee Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Both Aussie openers gone, let's hope the rain doesn't spoil this! Quote
Wanderlust Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 It's going to be tricky as the Aussies are in total defensive mode. Quote
globaldiver Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 By eck, if there play on Sunday, we might get over the line. Quote
desperado Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Really happy with England. But so pissed off we are going to spend the day at Old Trafford watching no cricket tomorrow 😟 Quote
maaarsh Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 Could be watching some of Jimmy's last ever Test overs - hope he's got another wicket left in him Quote

It's more of a passing interest for me, but surely a tied series is better than losing 2-1 or 3-1. I can't see it matters where that little urn is. Anyway, sounds like we might get a couple of hours Sunday early on. Quote
Lt. Aldo Raine Posted July 21, 2023 Posted July 21, 2023 If there's even two thirds of a full day's play on Sunday, I think we win Quote

We’ll go through the motions in case there’s a miracle, get on the beers early round OT, then jump on the tram to Prestwich when the inevitable happens. Quote

Mounts Kipper Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 That weather forecast has put pay to the ashes, about time Lancashire put a massive roof on OT. Gutted at that weather forecast. Quote

It's fair enough he feels sympathy for himself but why on earth he thinks being injured is justification for getting selected I'll never know. No more play this test by the looks of it, so good we spent an extra 40 mins yesterday trying to repair his ego. Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted July 22, 2023 Posted July 22, 2023 A surprise that they're playing, just need a wicket or two. Quote
