The 3rd umpire needs replacing too...how could he not see that was a four with Stokes arm on the boundary barrier?

Wood comes to the crease, Starc bowling 6 4 6 0 0 2

6 more 24 off 5 balls then skies one to Marsh.

First Ashes wicket for Murphy.  Hopefully, the first of many.

Cummins was outstanding.

Not much of a lead but the Poms will be hampered by fragile bowlers.

Can see the Aussie top order dropping like flies here.


Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread - Gointocarlton - 07-07-2023

Warner is dead set Broads bunny. Surely he is finished.


Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread - Macca37 - 07-07-2023

Agree. He is an embarrassment.

Marnus. Dumb arse shot after almost being caught behind. When will these guys learn to focus after they get an “out of jail card” for free? That is your opportunity to score a ton and make the fielding side suffer the consequences. This top order needs to not rely on Marsh to do something to get a score they can defend.


Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread - Professer E - 07-07-2023

Yep, Marnus playing dumb cricket, needs a boot in the arse.  Not converting is becoming a worrying pattern.

Starc....well, it's long established he doesn't care about conceding runs.  Maybe time to try something different.

Boland... The lack of penetration is concerning.

Warner... We all saw it, stats underlined it, but ego and Candice the selector got him on the boat.  Isn't making runs or surviving, which means ta ta.
