coming from an Aussie, who's commentators are unhinged cheerleaders, its a bit rich!

You'll be happy KP is on spurting how you Poms are on top

You poms?

Bit salty there.

Turn it off then! It's great watching for those not desperate to see the Aussies march on through the Poms.

I'm desperate to see a competitive series. Tnis pitch is a joke.

Maybe not. Height?

Yep. Might be something to do with your sheer Pomminess.

Taylor and KP in commentary make me want Hussain back

92/2 after 20 odd overs is an entertaining opening session.

Lets see how the test plays out before coming on strong at the pitch.

Im sorry I'm not part of the Aussie cheer leading squad. You'll also note that I'm literally the only person on this thread actually happy and enjoying the cricket. If that's pomminess, well then I'll take it.

For all the whinging about the cricket, this opening hour of posting has been appalling.

No you're not.

This deck is what I'd like to see after lunch, not first thing in the morning

I'm sure you'd be loving it if Aus had won the toss and batted.....

Crawley edged one behind but Cummins did not go for the referral. The BBC ball by ball coverage got a great text in about it:-

"To be fair, it's hard to hear an edge when the whole side is 75 yards away on the boundary."

NTA

I think there only one who thought he nicked it was Crawley

MajorRage

@KiwiMurph sure thing mr “competitive series”.

Right I’m off to the golf club for 9 holes and avo session in the sun over beers.

Enjoy!

NTA

Looks too good to be true

NTA

Oh right the tip of the thumb. Wow.

Good poker face from Crawley

Those are the 3 wickets everyone expected, but perhaps not at that rate. One wonders what could have been if the deck offered anything at all.

NTA

Brook very agressive but he's finding the right balls to play it against.

Got away with that one tho. Good effort from head

You have to catch that surely.

KiwiMurph

I think Head is a bit more suited to infield than outfield

Yep but according to Tubs Taylor "he's not a natural catcher" 🙄
