Australia (132 & 205/2) defeat England (172 & 164) by 8 wickets to win 1st Ashes Test and take 1-0 in 5-match series

[Sachin fan]

England doesn't have it in them to win away in Australia.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Even Yasir Shah has a 100 in Australia lol Root is yet to get one.

 

[BouncerGuy]

THREAD IS NOT ABOUT SAEED ANWAR..... STAY ON TOPIC

 

[Romali_rotti]

I am sure Root will score.a few runs in the second innings

 

[jamie smith fan]

Pope playing well.
Waiting for my boy jamie smith to bat.First real for him.

 

[Sachin fan]

THREAD IS NOT ABOUT SAEED ANWAR..... STAY ON TOPIC

But was it about Sachin and Indians cursing root?

 

[Nasty Naz]

Ashes in Australia is so boring. Everything England show up and get completely annihilated.

it's only a compelling series when its happening in England.

How do you say they are annihilated already. They still have 7 wickets in hand. Australia has no bwoler left besides Starc.

 

[BouncerGuy]

But was it about Sachin and Indians cursing root?

No, it is not... So everyone should refrain from doing it.

 

[DRsohail]

Green getting pope was a bonus.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Boland needs spicy pitches otherwise will be destroyed. In india he took 1 wicket and 0 wickets in eng on normal tracks.

Boland is home track bully who has average of 115 in England & 89 in India.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

OZ would've destroyed England with Hazlewood and Cummins

 

[harshjoshi87]

Pope played well after getting booted out of vice captaincy.

 

[harshjoshi87]

It's going to be tough for oldie Australia against Archer, Wood, Carse, Stokes & Atkinson on this wicket.

 

[U$ofA]

No, it is not... So everyone should refrain from doing it.

In that poster's defense, the warning was only issued to him and another poster. Not to the one who posted earlier.

Patience is key here. Something that Eng. have lacked to some extent. Batsmen can play themselves in.

BAZBALL doesn't believe in playing themselves in. It's just attack attack attack.

 

[U$ofA]

Good thing about Baz ball is that it's keeping Eng. ticking. 100 runs in the first session.

Aus. are already short 6-7 overs.

 

[U$ofA]

BAZBALL doesn't believe in playing themselves in. It's just attack attack attack.

Hence 4 down.

Warning is for everyone... Did I mention any name in that warning???

Now stop derailing thread with irrelevant stuff

 

[Ab Fan]

Aussies have terrible batting lineup. England got four proper pace bowlers. Wait for Aussies innings to get over, I think England would have done fine if they can get to 225+.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Stokes parchi gone.
Lol he is overrated as hell

 

[jamie smith fan]

All the best to my boy jamie smith.
First real test for him away from home.

 

[Ab Fan]

Stokes batting has gone southward while his bowling has been impressive this year.

 

[Ab Fan]

All the best to my boy jamie smith.
First real test for him away from home.

Won’t do well bud. You will hate this username soon.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Historic ton loading for jamie smith

 

[jamie smith fan]

He is top 3 wk bats in test cricket right now.
He isnt gonna disappoint me

Won’t do well bud. You will hate this username soon.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Brook gone in an unusual manner.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Wow, I didn't expect such a bad performance by Eng....

 

[jamie smith fan]

All hopes pinned on jamie now.

 

[BouncerGuy]

7 down now... atkinson also gone

Jamie Smith is running out of partners

 

[jamie smith fan]

Wow, I didn't expect such a bad performance by Eng....

Pitch is not easy.
225 will be a good first innings score

 

[Romali_rotti]

Pitch is not easy.
225 will be a good first innings score

Yeah 200 would make it hard for Oz bats.

 

[Hitman]

Wow, I didn't expect such a bad performance by Eng....

Winning Test series in Australia is not everyone's cup of tea.

 

[Varun]

Wow, I didn't expect such a bad performance by Eng....

Yeah, it's not like in Australia and India their results are always either one of:

1) 0-5
2) 0-4
3) 1-4

 

[jamie smith fan]

Lol reckless from carse

 

[jamie smith fan]

Yeah 200 would make it hard for Oz bats.

All hopes on jamie lol

 

[aboveandbeyond]

The fastest Attack in Test History will be unleashed on The Aussies.

Come on England, We can do this. Dad's army in for a real shock.

 

[Hitman]

Historic ton loading for jamie smith

Jamie Smith c Green b Starc 33 (22b 6x4 0x6) SR: 150

 

[jamie smith fan]

Jamie Smith c Green b Starc 33 (22b 6x4 0x6) SR: 150

Lol he ran out of partners he had no option but to hit out now.

 

[jamie smith fan]

7 fer for starc what a champion bowler

 

[jamie smith fan]

Pathetic batting performance from england.
This is by no means a 170 ao pitch

 

[harshjoshi87]

India got 150 in 1st innings last year at Perth & still won.

England shouldn't lose hope.

 

[BouncerGuy]

172 all out.... pathetic performance from England

 

[jamie smith fan]

India got 150 in 1st innings last year at Perth & still won.

England shouldn't lose hope.

Eng dont have bumrah

 

[aboveandbeyond]

This Test will be over in 3 days. With Englands Fierce Pace Attack taking the headlines.

Mighty Mighty England

 

[jamie smith fan]

172 all out.... pathetic performance from England

If they only had a bit of sense.
That brook dismissal was just too awful.

 

[jamie smith fan]

This Test will be over in 3 days. With Englands Fierce Pace Attack taking the headlines.

Mighty Mighty England

I also hope so.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Eng dont have bumrah

But they have Archer & Wood.

 

[jamie smith fan]

But they have Archer & Wood.

Lol wood would be down after 2 overs.
His body is made of glass.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Lol wood would be down after 2 overs.
His body is made of glass.

Carse & Stokes can do the job.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Nothing about what happened so far today is surprising.

Expect for Boland getting some tap I guess..

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Career-best figures for Starc in this 101th test match. What a spell, what a player.

 

[Varun]

They find it impossible to not get blanked by India and Australia away from home.

At home, against India and Australia they barely cling on to a drawn series or a narrow victory.

In living memory, no English player has finished with a 50+ batting average or a 25- bowling average.

The worst member of the big-3.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Lets see what weatharald can do.
I think he is a good batter i remember him playing for adelaide strikers and scoring a marvelous ton in bbl final against prime hobart hurricanes in 2018 maybe.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Career-best figures for Starc in this 101th test match. What a spell, what a player.

Truly a goat
Lol at those who say bumrah is better than him

 

[aboveandbeyond]

There's a hint of uneven bounce as well. Englands fierce Pacemen must bowl straight.

 

[jamie smith fan]

I think its out

 

[aboveandbeyond]

GONE!

Archer strikes.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Goneree

Pathetic stuff, his stance was even lower than Inglis's, at least Inglis gets that low only with Spinners.

 

[BouncerGuy]

LOL... AUstralia trying to match England

 

[Devadwal]

Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha just checked the score and Temu tenul aka FTB root Only scored Zero

ANd some Clown compared this Softy statpadder to Tendulkar. Lol

 

[Hitman]

Truly a goat
Lol at those who say bumrah is better than him

Please forgive them who thinks a bowler averaging 19.54 at an SR of 42.2 is better than a bowler averaging 26.7 at an SR of 46.8

Next excuse please?​

 

[aboveandbeyond]

England all over Dads army like a Rash!

 

[jamie smith fan]

Lol the ball is absolutely flying here

[Devadwal]

Don't care whoever wins, but rooting for Root to score big runs...as it's all about breaking records

Expecting a masterclass from Boland but bashing of Starc

.

Btw how many runs FTB Root scored?

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Fantastic start by England so far

 

[Devadwal]

172 all out.... pathetic performance from England

What pathetic? This is standard performance from tullebaaz team on a tricky surface.

They need pitch doctoring, I means a road to score the runs.

England hasn't won a Test match in Australia in last 14 years.

 

[jamie smith fan]

Wood consistently bowling 150+

 

[Devadwal]

Mann test matches in Australia and England feels like heaven while in India it feels like we came for a Vimal advertisement.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Good start by England. Need to continue piling up the pressure. The oldies will break apart in the next session.

 

[Varun]

Australia are in anti-BazBall mode.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Australia have weathered the storm. The toughest phase is over for now.

 

[Devadwal]

no luck no party for Marnus. Gone

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Labuscahagne was playing like a night watchman...he needed to be put out of his misery

 

[Devadwal]

Imagine this match happening in india , all the talk about pitch and pitch only from some clueless poster's

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia need to minimise the loss of wickets until 35-40 overs.

Runs to be had after that

 

[Devadwal]

Smith gone for 17. End is near for him.
