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.

@KiwiMurph said in Ashes 2023:

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.

Would have been a great declaration if Oz had ended up 5/2 at the close of play. Suspect they might have given up 30 - 40 runs to try it, but that is Bazball...

The Brook dismissal

[KiwiMurph]

The declaration could still pay off if Aus struggle in having to 'start again' on Day 2.

The real problem for the Poms looks to be talent - 125k Ollie Robinson doesn't look real threatening.

[Donsteppa]

For better or worse, re: the pitch

[MN5]

Is there a grumpier man in cricket than Ian Chappell ?

'Bugger off': Chappell fires up at England request

'It should be left to the curator'

[Donsteppa]

Barmy Army social media seems excited about cloud around Edgbaston this morning...

Edit: but the covers are on...

[Duluth]

More happening this morning. Broad on a hat trick

[Donsteppa]

Marnus lazily hangs out the bat against a swinging ball and gets punished accordingly.

[Donsteppa]

Might be a good morning for Smith's over exaggerated footwork. Concrete shoes haven't worked so far this morning.

[NTA]

Called it

[Catogrande]

@MN5 Chappell is not wrong IMO. However such tactics are hardly confined to Stokes and England.

Bold prediction...

[Donsteppa]

By his facial expressions, Smith is a terrible judge of whether LBW shouts against him are even remotely valid

[Catogrande]

Great celebration by Khawaja for his ton. That one really meant something to him.

All I came here to say is, how is that fluffybunny out there in a thick knit vest?
