Perfect weather for swing but ball’s too new for that yet.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Crowd surprising quiet given the circumstances, hardly roaring the bowlers in.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Anderson bowling like a old man 11off 4 balls criminal he is in this team

Too early to be 'lubricated'?

 

[Pavilionaire]

A perfect first hour for Australia. Broad's line all over the place, Jimmy no pace or swing, Ali bowling short balls and full tosses.

 

[Si Gull]

Good start for Australia but a wicket will completely change the mood.

I may be late to the party but I have just discovered that you can listen to TMS via YouTube. It’s only available to those outside the UK and a few other countries.
Which is nice.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Anderson has bowled 8 overs and wood not even one bloody ball ffs it’s bloody madness that

Will the rain save us this time?

A perfect first hour for Australia. Broad's line all over the place, Jimmy no pace or swing and needs a wheelchair , Ali bowling short balls and full tosses.

Sums up the series really doesn’t it ? Wood not even bowled a ball yet . Anderson with a average of over 80 per wicket has bowled nine

 

[pasty]

Don’t panic everyone. I’m off out in 10 minutes so a flurry of wickets is almost certain

Bet not

 

[Ethelwulf]

87-0 less than 300 to get now

 

[The Wizard]

I feel like Wood must be carrying some injury surely he’d have bowled by now??

 

[Ethelwulf]

I’m turning off now it’s terrible from stokes bowling Anderson for his 10th over when wood hasn’t bowled a ball yet ffs
