Ashes 2019

@junior reckon Davey and Smith are going to go great guns. Expecting root and stokes to get amongst the runs also. Suspect oz have a better all round attack with not much between their top pace men. Unsure if England can return fire although their opening bowlers are fire.
Ashes is just so good!! Test cricket is such a great game!

Do you think Davey will take any confidence in dealing with the conditions into the series from his decent CWC form (appreciating different format, ball etc.)?
I think he will, though I don't expect him to be as dominant as he was in the CWC. If we bat first tonight it will be fascinating to see how he plays it.
A part of me thinks he will get out slogging in the fourth over, when he's on 22 (9), and the score is 0/23.

@Donsteppa to be fair, it's partly his own fault for batting so far down the pitch. The umpire will be judging him based on where a normal stance would be.

What fucking channel is the cricket on?

Gem? What is gem?

Also, numbers and names on test shirts? I'm not having that

I was surprised that Lloyd and Botham were so confident with the Warner lbw
One of the pluses of the CWC was not having to listen to Botham's inane ramblings. Great player. Crap commentator

I'm sure there's a joke there about convicts and prison numbers, but I can't be buggered to work on it.

I'll take 284 after that start.
Smith is still the man.
If Siddle can bowl like he hated, we're half a chance.
I'm still shocked that anemic vegan is in the team over Hazlewood
-
Smith is the fuck man isn't he?
And he's so interesting to watch. His "technique"looks like he is constantly in a tangle, but he just middles his bail out shots. What a player, but not one you would get your kid to copy!
