It's funny when people only read headlines.

[ʃₐᵇf(x)dx=F(b)-F(a)]

If a headline doesn't grab my attention I can't see me reading the article.

Michael Clarke joining the list of aussies whingeing about Ollie Robinson.

Brilliant, loving it.

^^^^^^^^

[Just Dave now]

It was advertised on tv last night as next tuesday.

I wonder if Chappell will admit he was a coward who insulted England and then ran away.

Both versions have him sitting on his arse though.

Good news. They must have run an d advert yesterday when they said it was next tuesday.

Looking forward to it. Who doesn't love Sir Ian.

The best thing about Botham is that he reminds me of an Aussie!!!

[God is an Englishman]

Healey, Haddin, Clarke, Ponting and Hayden all living up to the worldwide reputation that aussies have.

[God is an Englishman]

The best thing about Botham is that he reminds me of an Aussie!!!

Normally that means aussies would hate him. Any non aussie cricketer who acts like an aussie is normally hated by aussies. Eg. Robinson and Broad recently.

Botham definitely winning this one. Chappel whingeing and Botham saying how he was loving it.

This needs its own thread.

in a sign of panic, looks like "bazball" has been binned

we'll see if MH's mob remember how to play trad cricket

Why do you think it's been binned?

Good day for Australia after being sent in to bat.
If they can push on today and get over 450 hopefully the bowlers can perform better than their English counterparts and really drive home the advantage.

you never know, with our best batsman well set, only 5 wickets down against an aging/injured front-line bowling attack, Cummins might declare just so that he can be known as the captain who entertains....

Catch of the season by Bairstow.

Nice start after being sent in on a green top.

Are you saying he's your best batsman because the best batsman in your side is south african?

Strangely Cummins said he would have bowled as well.

And i would have expected the Aussie bowlers (and fielders) to do a better job than what England did yesterday.
That said it's now irrelevant

Funny Bairstow carrying this nutter off just like he is a cardboard cutout.

GIAE may be correct. He could be from one of those Imaginary countries that GIAE mentioned a few weeks back called Asia and Africa.

looks like very poor security in England or they allowed these 'protestors' in

sounds English to me

Looks like england have little choice but to persist with bazball in their first innings. Either chase down a 400+ first innings target with aim to pass it in a day to try and win, but risk getting skittled cheaply OR play traditional test cricket and claw their way back towards the target and thus keeping a draw more possible. Anything is possible, but next couple days could more or less determine series outcome.

Forecast looking like first session might not happen.

That will then be interesting to see what happens. A few cheap wickets and England are well in this game.

A decent quick score and England will be in the driving seat.

Tune in this evening folks to see what happens.
