[The Wizard]

I have a feeling this might be the innings where England finally take advantage.

Tomorrow looks like a batting paradise day, all we need to do is play smart tonight and not throw away our wickets, shouldn’t be that dif… oh…..

Stokes in the dressing room:
"Right, 50 run lead tonight lads, then we'll send them back in for a couple of awkward overs before the close".

[PILTDOWN MAN]

A Yorker could go over Duckett's head on this wicket

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

I messaged Kinky Gerbils about 20 minutes ago saying we'll be 30-5 at close.

It's hard to see us getting through the evening session without losing a few wickets.

I enjoyed the picture more than the message x

 

[The Wizard]

Dear oh dear, terrible ball, terrible shot.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Duckett gone. Edged to Carey for 2. 18-1. Poor shot

 

[Javeaseagull]

Here we go!

 

[Is it PotG?]

Who's going to be our main run contributor then?

Looks like we'll need a biggie from someone.

Won't be Duckett......

 

[The Maharajah Of Hockley]

Why on EARTH swing at that. Knob.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Oh look a wicket keeper who catches.

 

[albionfan37]

I thought it was illegal in this country to dock tails

 

[Muzzman]

Fuckett Duckett

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Carey cheating by licking the ball.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Got away with one a few balls earlier, instead of staying calm and holding back, just swing away

 

[Muzzman]

Carey cheating by licking the ball.

Agreed!

Early on against a bowling attack this good you just have to take your medicine, yes you want to score but that shot from Duckett is such a low percentage shot, it’s a pre meditated ‘I’m attacking this ball no matter what’ shot

Indeed. Bully bad or average bowling but take care when it's good.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Dear oh dear, terrible ball, terrible shot.

Would have been 4 runs if it was us fielding.

 

[The Wizard]

Phenomenal bowling from this pair, doesn’t get much better for new ball than Cummins and Starc
