Ashes 2025-26: Australia vs England | 2nd Test | Gabba | December 04-08 | Match Discussion

[Devadwal]

@Devadwal Ben Stokes 11.3 overs, 65 runs, 1 wicket.

Mashallah he's bowling so well. What a goat bowler. It's a shame England didnt declare under lights . How dare Archer score 30+ runs

This is only show that stokes is bowling thrash but Australia bowler ( barring Starc) has bowled even more grabage than him.

It's a fight between two Mediocre sides but eventually one have to win here.

 

[Devadwal]

@mominsaigol Australia 291/3 instead 20/3.

Chaat lo ab last wicket partnership ke useless runs.

:kl

They have not, stats literally prove they have not. Again ik you have an ego, but come on, its been a month since I was away? I didnt expect to embarss you so soon?

 

[Devadwal]

Dropped?

 

[Independent Observer]

What a catch!!

How costly will that Duckett drop be?

Yeah 2 medicore sides. I wonder why India lost to them, NZ and SA in comedic fashion.

They had loat 3-1 to England as well. Siraj (not bumrah who couldnt even win a single game) helped india draw the series.

India is out of wtc. But what happened bro, I thought they were WORLD CLASS. .

KYA HOI BRO KYA HOI

 

[Devadwal]

This is what happened when you Bowled in night session.

Ho gyi century Smith ki ? 800 banane maine or kitne runs chahiye?

@mominsaigol

 

[RidiculousMan]

Poor man's Steyn has opened the game again. Love Carse effort. Always gives for the team 100%

 

[mominsaigol]

What a catch!!

How costly will that Duckett drop be?

England have saved the game. Inglis wont last long. Aus will get a lead but its no longer a 180-200 lead.

 

[aboveandbeyond]

Carse strikes twice to bring Mighty England back in the Game. Could have been on a hattrick had Carey not been dropped first ball

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia need 450. Need this pair to bat long.

England with a sniff

 

[Markhor]

That was a harder catch for Jacks than Duckett's drop. Duckett seemed to be caught on his heels.

Good recovery from Carse after getting smashed.

KYA HOI BRO KYA HOI

Australia last series win in india in 2004, india series win in australia -2021

Australia last series win in England 2001 , india series win in England -2007

At home we were undefeated for more than a decade. You literally lost a test to Minnow Westindies at home .

 

[Ahmed216]

Haven't seen more stupid displays of batting in test cricket than that Carse over.

What was alex carey doing on that first ball?

Makes me think test cricket is truly dead

 

[mominsaigol]

@mominsaigol Australia 291/3 instead 20/3.

Chaat lo ab last wicket partnership ke useless runs.

What are you even talking about? Genuinely I don't get what you just said?

Have a glass of water and throw it on yourself. You've entered into a delirious state. You even forgot the KP emoji

Green with a dumb dismissal too lol.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

@DeadlyVenom Do you remember your remarks about Archer and BUMRAH few months before ?

How is Archer " Better than Bumrah" performing in australia ? Bus Nikal gyi hawa

What were my remarks I can't remember them.

 

[Devadwal]

Australia need 450. Need this pair to bat long.

England with a sniff

What are you talking man ? They are going to score 800 runs as predicted by a .

On a serious note that can still score 375+

Night session is more important for bowling side in day night test. Team can collapsed at any time.

It's one of the reasons I stopped watching cricket for a while (minus cricinfo scorecards) and left the forumn for a month.

Will probably leave again very soon until the next mega test series as ive lost all interest in odi and t20 cricket as well.

 

[Devadwal]

What were my remarks I can't remember them.

You said Archer is better than Bumrah.

 

[Markhor]

What was Green doing backing away like that as if it's the final ball of a T20 innings ?

 

[KingKhanWC]

The Ashes are very competitive in England, while in Australia it's a one-sided contest. This England team lacks the skill to win in Australia.

Not Many can win back to back series in australia.

Aus still trailing, will only have a small lead imo. England can still win this series and test, relax

 

[Devadwal]

Do you want one sided contest ? Need close match for neutral fans .

Hey mods, will this post stay up or disappear like the Oct 7 2023 thread?

 

[mominsaigol]

Eh, Aus has more or less won this test.

 

[Ahmed216]

What was Green doing backing away like that as if it's the final ball of a T20 innings ?

Ya both green and smith too played extremely poor strokes

 

[Devadwal]

Aus still trailing, will only have a small lead imo. England can still win this series and test, relax

Same things I hearing since 2011 .

England in the last 16 Tests in Australia:
Won -0.
Lost - 14.
Drawn - 2.

Only your team record is more pathetic than England. Even recently westindies won a test in australia

Still pretending to be old? Lol. Uni of rajastan graduates are delusional beyond belief i suppose.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

You said Archer is better than Bumrah.

Lets discuss when series ends

 

[Devadwal]

Green was hoping for a short pitch bowling and bowler Bowled a full length Bowl.

Im an England fan



England are in this match, India are not.

 

[DeadlyVenom]

You gotta admire the gentleman spirit on display here.

Carse politely handed the Aussies the match on a silver platter, and after a while Aussies politely handed it back to Carse.

Just beautiful.

 

[Markhor]

Edge but no third slip despite two new batters at the crease.

 

[Devadwal]

Im an England fan



England are in this match, India are not.

I'm sick and tired of wannabe supporters , you're same England supporter like my brother @Rajdeep .

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Match is between England and Aus.

Meanwhile Indians after every ball

Smith and green were scoring same way before the dismissal. They were playing too Many shots at that time .

 

[Devadwal]

Both team is having very poor over rate, WTC points are going to reduce from both sides.

Jnaveen Bhai has finally stopped reading scoreboards in protest as he has decided to boycott the Indian cricket team while they lose

 

[Markhor]

Plug the bloody gap in the cordon Stokes. So many runs have come behind the wicket today.

 

[RexRex]

Eng getting smacked back to reality after those 2 wkts. #soft

 

[rpant_gabba]

@mominsaigol how more runs Australia need to score for 800 runs Mark's. Please tagged me once they scored not Just in this series but in next 10 year at anywhere in the World.

 

[mominsaigol]

@Devadwal Mashallah better then every aussie bowler stokes about to hit a century .

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Nah. 450 is important. 4th innings will be tough on this pitch

 

[Independent Observer]

Inglis goooone

 

[Devadwal]

@Devadwal Mashallah better then every aussie bowler stokes about to hit a century .

This is why I ignored that under lights comment. Moron cant tell the difference between a batter getting out due to a stupid shot. But but but its the lights. Its blinding me Mr.

As I said earlier he is bowling grabage but Australian bowlers even Bowled more grabage than him.

Don't worry he will take more wickets than any Australia Pacers in this test barring Starc.

 

[mominsaigol]

Inglis goooone

Yup, aus should have picked Webster

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Stokes get Inglis @mominsaigol England ahead now

 

[mominsaigol]

Stokes get Inglis @mominsaigol England ahead now

No, England is behind mate.

 

[AZulfi]

Just while I was writing this

‘The Perth wicket helped them in the first innings of that test but English seam bowling looks very one-dimensional to me. Not penetrative enough. Little variety in their attack. No good spinner either.’

Stokes takes a wicket

England need to restrict the Aussie first innings lead to 50-75 if they wish to stay in the game.

Oh look another jinx, @Devadwal I helped you again .

Trust me this whole day you've needed it. Blood pressure rising, Temperature cooking.

Your focus on that is one of the reasons you will be on the list

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Not until they have a 100 run deficit. Australia have to bat last here which won't be easy at all.

 

[Devadwal]

Correct prediction requires some solid cricket knowledge which you do not have.

under 50. I think if it is a 75 lead it will be too much

First, last bleh. My prediction is Aus is winning 5-0 . Has my prediction ever been wrong

Idc man. Put me on whatever fantasy list you dream of lol

 

[mominsaigol]

Okay, you're right. We should declare on highways under lights

 

[atreus]

Ben Duckett has been the best performer for Australia this match. Got dismissed first over and then dropped two catches. Jamie Smith too, got out on second ball and dropped Head on 3.

 

[TheSultan]

Sorry to say - Atkinson is harshit

 

[Independent Observer]

Another dropped catch

 

[Devadwal]

Sorry to say - Atkinson is harshit

Another catch dropped, I think they practised too much before this series.

 

[atreus]

I cannot believe this, four catch drops in a day.

 

[Independent Observer]

Abdullah Shafique would be proud of these dropped catches

 

[Markhor]

England going full Pakistan in Australia.

 

[Devadwal]

Abdullah Shafique would be proud of these dropped catches

What your opinion about this test ? Who is favourite now ?

Can England score 275+ in 2nd innings to makes the match intresting?

 

[Independent Observer]

I cannot believe this, four catch drops in a day.

Welcome to the life of a Pakistan cricket team supporter, bruh

 

[Independent Observer]

Another drop!

 

[Devadwal]

What is happening? They are dropping the catches one after another. Lol

Feel like it's Australia's test man. Those guys pull out wins from nowhere even when they are playing average cricket.

 

[Devadwal]

If England lose this test then series will be over by third test. 5-0 to Australia .

England team will not recover from these losses.

 

[AZulfi]

Lead 38 runs already

Another heavy defeat looming for England.

Australia will likely take a first innings lead of 100-125
