That I could handle .

 

[Flanagun]

Now they are taking legit wickets away from us... wtf?

 

[Flanagun]

Haha under my analogy she would only stay naked a few minutes while you're too incapacitated to do it.... Then she would dress again and leave before you can find your feet

 

[Stoofy]

So when do you think they will declare?

They only lead by 525 runs.

Over 560 now....

Just before lunch I guess.... Conservative, boring England hehe I think 450 would have been plenty... I'd laugh if they bat too long and we arse our way to a draw!

Good banter lads.

How costly was Haddin ****ing up that edge off Watsons bowling when Root was in single figures!

 

[sgodllubsti]

the poms have 525 runs that's enough to beat Australia they couldn't get that many runs in 3 innings let alone 1

I'm sure their plan will be to nurse Root through to his double ton, then send us in and have a tricky 45-60 minute period at our top order prior to lunch.

We need to keep Root in there & stop him scoring runs. They wont declare until he gets out.

I would laugh if it starts raining, thats our only hope really.

About as costly as not bringing a condom to an orgy in Bangkok tbh

It was a shocker of a miss!

This tour will be a story of missed opportunities, the odd catch, bad call etc

 

[CroydonDog]

You know a side is cruising when they delay a declaration just so someone can bing up a double ton (which he didn't).

It might have been matter NOT to get Root out, as it would have reduced the overs required to bat.

That's what makes Test cricket great

They need to score 465 runs in 173 overs. Possible but very unlikely!

Usman Khawaja has just scored his 50, well done.

Michael Clarke is following on 42.

Can these 2 bat through till mid tomorrow for a draw?
