@mn5 can't read either?
Dunno, looks a bunch of rubbish about a network of players around the world fixing spot-betting situations. It's not so much match results, as fall of wicket/number of runs, that kind of rubbish.
Apparently, The Sun has done an investigation, and handed over their info to "cricket chiefs".
The article is very short on detail, but very big on boastful Indians.

Something to put in the shitter.

What surprised me was how short Oz bowled when the common wisdom is pitch it up.
Total wasted effort. I only saw the last session but I don't think I saw one they dug in cause any trouble for the batsman - and as for the review - fucking muppets
Mind you apart from the first over with the second new ball Malan and Bairstow looked totally untroubled.
-
@dogmeat the short stuff worked Stoneman over nicely, and then Mitchell "Fucking" Marsh dropped him. Malan was taking it on and not always executing cleanly. It wasn't a bad tactic considering a lot of the full stuff was disappearing to the fence.
Keeping it full on that pitch, with a wearing ball, was a recipe for getting driven repeatedly. With the new ball we had another chance put down, then a bunch of streaky edges through slip. None of the LBWs were sticking because of height.
That review was, again, fucking stupid.
The execution could have been better, but there was a lot to like about the short ball work in the middle of the day.
-
That review this morning was disgraceful, and just reeked of desperation. Not sure you can blame Starc, he didn't look overly convinced. Someone must have been, despite an awful lot of stumps showing. Very poor cricket.

Handscomb does more as sub fielder than Mitch Marsh will this entire game.

solid collapse, 420 would be overs from here
-
This England team have such a weak lower order.
And a weak top order.
Thus will probably be their highest score of the series.
Bowling round the wicket from ball one at number 11's body is not on though IMO, no matter how much bad blood there is between Anderson and the Aussies.

Winning at all costs is the straya way
