    While we didn't get much fortune with overhead conditions, there were a lot of bad balls in the session I watched.

    Really questioning the tactics we're employing as well. Some of the field placements leave me bemused.

    Even more so, that they went in without a spinner.

    So, send out the spin bowling coach . .. to to do the EOD presser.

    Didn't get to see a ball bolted live as work got in the way - I need a better work/life balance I think. Had a look at the highlights though and it looked as though the Aus fielding (Khawaja's catch aside) was bit ordinary? Root was undone but a nasty one when he looked in good nick which was a shame.

    I did like the way the Aussie's congratulated Crawley when he was out. A classy response. Ollie Robinson take note.

    @Catogrande There definitely was some shoddy fielding - Cummins leading the way who put down Ali before Khawaja's catch.

    The field placings were just weird - very reactionary/half pie.

    @NTA to be fair, his back foot was in the shadow, so worth a look (and a boo 😉)

    I like what you did there.

    Is it too late to get on the English bandwagon?

    Bazball rocks !!!

    But for Cummins and Lyon scratching out 60 runs, England would be lauded to the rafters.

    Also, if Aus lose (and even if they don't) Langer's mates have really got it in for Cummins. he's not a great captain, but the aussie toxicity is ridiculous
