Ashes-2023 England VS Australia 16 June-31 July

[CartyDurham]

What a declaration!! No going for 400-500... Sweet and simple! Love this English test side.

Could be genius. Could be foolhardy but it’s definitely a real statement of intent . Unreal

Wow! Declaration.

Hard to believe but that Stokes . Never seen the like in test match ashes

Can't believe that decision,Australia could make 600 on this wicket.

 

[asprin]

Surprising call here. 400 doesn't seem that intidimating in the grand scheme of things but I guess it was about making a statement.

Risk vs reward.

 

[CartyDurham]

Broad to Warner. Assuming Broad gets the new ball

 

[Paranoid Kendroid]

Ben Stokes, what have you done?

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Honestly thought they'd declare if Root got 100 or they were nine down. Did the same in NZ.
Get two wickets tonight. Bowl them out cheaply, enforce the follow on, bowl them out again. Game over in two days.

Ben Stokes, what have you done?

Potential of day three being rained off. Could be a huge error but this is baz/benball they go for it

Was watching that archives footage of Sky showing Warner vs Broad.

Greats of the game like Warne obviously not there alongside no Bumble and Michael Holding in the comm box as well.

So many great voices in the comm box back in the day.

 

[CartyDurham]

Warner was running whatever there Desperate to get off strike

You are not wrong there. Sadly time waits for no one now . Good to hear and watch though

This is great seeing Warner so jittery . Broad is so inside his head here

 

[CartyDurham]

Both of them nearly running themselves out

 

[Ed Smith]

Changing gloves because they're dirty after a dive? Fine and demerit point.

 

[CartyDurham]

Nice shot that by Warner though. Four to finish the over

Aye I saw that. But I'd rather pay full price than be an SAFC season ticket holder
