Bazball is awesome. Declaring with under 400 on the board is ballsy as fuck
Yeah, what the fuck! Sort of have to congratulate with a hint of "what the fuck are you thinking"

I can see Aussie getting 500 then rolling the Poms in the second innings. High risk

It'll be interesting to see what Ali and Root can do as this dry wicket dries out further.
I think the entire point of Bazball is high risk. Two stumpings in the last session show that it is all about momentum and taking the Draw off the table as a likely outcome, with some rash decisions.
Look at the strike rates: everyone about 70 except Stokes and Robinson (who is a otherwise total fucking bunny). Can't do that on anything but a road.

I can kinda understnd it - try to get wickets with fresh bowlers on a Day 1 pitch. But it's high risk.
If he'd picked up a wicket or two, maybe people would think he's a genius ... but it's aggression going over to stupidity at some point.

Good effort from head
You have to catch that surely.
Yep but according to Tubs Taylor "he's not a natural catcher" 🙄
What the hell ???? Shouldn’t that be the most natural thing a person can do ?
Intriguing test.
Warner to get 200, Australia all out for just under 600.

That sucks - gun bat who averages 80+ gets out to that meanwhile Marnus is about the luckiest bloke in cricket history
Just a really good start, he’ll peter out and finish about 35ish like all other Poms who are not called Root.

Is there a grumpier man in cricket than Ian Chappell ?
'Bugger off': Chappell fires up at England request
