I really like this Isa Guha
She's fucking great. Probably my favourite cricket commentator since the world cup
We're being fucking embarrassed by the way. This is terrible.

@kev I guess I look at it a bit differently - in that I'd say our batting line-up is much-of-a-muchness with Australia's.
The problem is that on this sort of pitch (and in fact most pitches) their bowlers are better.
We can certainly bat better than we did in the first innings - but, our bowlers also need to find a way to bowl them out much faster.
We lack the pace and bounce for Australia. Boult is good enough to get wickets anyway, but we're very samey, especially with Ferguson broken.
This Australian quartet is actually fucking brilliant.
But getting rolled for 160 with our best ever batting lineup is actually a disgrace.

@mariner4life Yep!
And you know how you don't really like CdG as a first change bowler...well, guess what he's doing in Perth!
We're being done like a dinner. And i just saw one spit up off the pitch and jam Steve Smith's finger. That will be fun when Starc is bowling...

@mariner4life Did no warm up games really help us either?

21.5.2 the bowler’s front foot must land with some part of the foot, whether grounded or raised
-
on the same side of the imaginary line joining the two middle stumps as the return crease described in 21.5.1, and
-
behind the popping crease.
If the bowler’s end umpire is not satisfied that all of these three conditions have been met, he/she shall call and signal No ball.
