Head might yet get out cheaply but it's nice to see some intent from an Australian batter.

Love the crowd and atmosphere in the test.

Great watching.

Fascinating to see the contrast between the defensive fields employed by Australia; allowing England to basically score at 5 rpo. Then attacking fields from England with Australia looking scared to play a shot.

Will admit I am happy to eat the biggest slice of humble pie for lunch. Stokes has made me look an utter clown which is fantastic

I asked an AI to explain Ben Stokes declared. We shall see if it can predict the future and whether it 'paid off':

Which AI is that?

Aussies always happy to give some Head

This sums up completely the attitude and mentality of these two sides. England might not win but it will be enjoyable to watch. Aussies 2023 are the Enlgand of the 1990's!

There were a few camera shots yesterday of Warner looking pissed off as he was pushed to the boundary by Cummins.....

Was expecting Mark Wood to be bowling some short fiery spells on this pitch, but it's Harry Brook instead.

Missing Mark Wood

Missing Mark Wood

Yep. Someone who can really bang it in with pace.

 

[CerealKiller]

Does England really not have a more incisive spinner than Moeen? Feels unfair to someone like Liam Dawson

I honestly wonder whether Steven Smith is actually a sociable guy to be around. A great batman but seems sociably very awkward. Nowt wrong with that but is very very sure of himself and utterly shocked when decisons go against him as if it's against the laws of the universe for him to be out.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he is on the spectrum TBH.

 

[Dutch]

Yes!!
