Labuschagne is following in his footsteps pretty effectively ( with the record….not the cheating )

He's barely played outside Aus and has an average of 20 in UAE......

This is such an “Indian” thing to point out

FYB!

Bugger. Was just about to post that England were going ok !

Great setup by Green.

[NTA]

Malan = poor shot

Pope = frustration. This is some tight bowling, paying dividends.

[sparky]

And just like that England lose three quick wickets.

Buttler is poo

[Donsteppa]

Buttler can't keep or bat at the moment.

What annoys me the most is how the Aussies mispronounce his name, yet in the 2000s Wallabies fans/commentators were fine with saying Jannes Labuschagne correctly.

It is at his insistence that it is Labuschange like Champagne. The Hyacinth Bucket of test cricket.

His family gave up because Australians

[booboo]

Funny how that aussie all rounder Green(?) came out to bat and got bowled by Ben from Chch second ball. The aussie comms could only squeeze in a couple of minutes of fapping about how good he is. Then they went on about Stokes being the English Talisman. Ha give me Neil from Pretoria anyday. We loves Wags ❤

Loves

Quite understandable, really. The name would have come from French (boscage = woodland) and then butchered into Afrikaans along the way.

Wouldn't have started out as "Lah-boo-skuhk-knee", fer shure.

And that's the innings....

Marcus Harris runs off, eager to bat, like the slow kid who thinks the bullies aren't just laughing at him as they send him out for sacrificial lamb duties.

Australia toying with England, like a cat with a mouse it is about to devour.
