By the way, did you see the stat that England's first wicket stand of 27 in this match was the highest by either team in the entire series!! The average is now back in single figures. Absolutely shocking! (Indictment of the modern game...) |

Archer has the best average of any bowler in the series now...

Fuck me, it's a good job Smith can only bat at one end! Sammy Curran should have played in the last match. Big chance for England here.

Bejesus, finally gone for 80.... that probably counts as taking him cheaply, right?

22 wickets (two 5 fers) in 4 matches, at 17.5 for archer. Yeah, but Cummins and Hazlewood...🤫 So ray, how's batting on that perfect day 3 pitch going for you? 🙊 Honestly, this series could now be all but over if Paine had batted. End of. It was a ludicrously stupid decision given the situation. That said, it ain't over yet! We need 300+ to be confident. But to be fair with these two bowling attacks anything is possible. We could get bowled out for 150 and still win! Great entertainment but I'm glad I haven't got a ticket for Monday! |

great day for us now we need to hammer it home BUT this is England another poor shot by Denly
it was nice to get Smith out cheaply and Curran bowled really well
nice 6 for Archer
what a shocking umpire decision at the end and he is one of the best

Good day for Archer. Bad day for our batsmen. Had the best of the conditions and blew it. Wouldn’t have mattered if we batted 1st or 2nd given that performance, so I don’t see how switching the innings would have helped. Explain to me how.
Sick of the one man team shit. Yes he’s the best player in the world, but to say we’re a one man team implies you’d be our equal without and you’re not. Not even close.
You have one, maybe two bowlers that would make our squad. Not team, squad. You had the form opener of the series despite everyone agreeing his hundred was atrocious.
Apart from that you had a lucky innings from Stokes or it would have been over in 3 at 2-0.
What we have is a one man defense against stupid comments in here like we’re a one man team or that smith will be remembered as a cheat.
I guess acting the ass when you’re in front isn’t a uniquely Australian quality lol.
Games not over yet. Archer will probably bowl medium pace in the next 4 innings 😂

Then there’s this...
Laugh all you like at his poor form, he was one of the worlds top 10 test batsmen before this series’ failures.I really hope he delivers in the second dig to show that form is temporary. Is his call from grace any worse than Root’s? Want long ago he was being spoken of with Williamson and Kohli - he’s not a shadow of that now.
