Right on cue. He's obviously got the FB match thread on live feed via headphones or smartwatch...

Never doubted them.

The surprise is that Cook held it.

Oh. Jimmy made Davey play. Gets him out. Funny old game

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 14:11

Oh dear Cooky. I think he HAS already managed to have a child, no?

by taipan Thu 09 Jul 2015, 14:13

Jimmy sledging yet?

by Red Thu 09 Jul 2015, 14:18

Nutted.

Rogers plays nice and late, good for English conditions.

Buck Rogers is consistent; that was a good half ton.

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 14:55

Too easy for Aus at the moment.Looking very comfortable.

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:04

We're f*cked.

by Red Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:19

After the concussion, perhaps surprising that the poms haven't bowled more short stuff to Rogers.

by beamer Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:27

If one of our batsmen had played the shot the world number 1 just did, imagine the reaction on here... Laughing

Cakewalk.

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:32

Oh goody. Broad comes back on with the game in the balance, and bowls 79mph half volleys.

by LeFromage Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:53

I was going to pick Rogers for my Dream Team. That would've stopped him.

by Guest Thu 09 Jul 2015, 15:55

Well that session things were starting to feel more normal again. Aus looking good for 450-500.

by Henry Thu 09 Jul 2015, 16:18

Ball not moving at all now. England exposed.

by Brass Monkey Thu 09 Jul 2015, 16:38

Needed that wicket. Think this is a big partnership - Voges at the top of his game and Clarke being Clarke.

by PeterCS Thu 09 Jul 2015, 17:41

Clarke being ... gawn.

by Brass Monkey Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:00

Cakewalk.

by DJ_Smerk Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:03

Australia will walk this, easy peasy.

Watson double century to come.

James Harris is currently bowling in the mid eighties, AND he can bat. Get him in.

by PeterCS Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:08

You're confusing us now S, with a mixture of wily looped RWs and full-pitched angry pace.

I'm pencilling you in for the next Test!

Let's hope the results come back negative!

by DJ_Smerk Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:13

Back to the cricket and this really does look like a worrying partnership. A genuine threat. Once these two are in, it's going to be difficult to unhinge them.

Give the golden Root a bowl?

by DJ_Smerk Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:20

STOKESSSSSSS!!!!!!!! bounce

by DJ_Smerk Thu 09 Jul 2015, 18:27

From Cricinfo...

Cardiff in song (though they never need an excuse)...

I've been humming Jerusalem for the past few days. FML.
