Just waking up and seeing the score.
Quack, quack. Two wickets in the first three overs. That's embarrassing for England.
Surprised the Aussies left out Nathan Lyon though.
The real action is happening across the ditch but I may as well jump in here for a look.
I’m genuinely shocked Crawley is still in.
don't feel like you have to
This bloke Neser has some lovely first class stats. He’ll be thrilled to get a chance with no Cummins or Hazelwood.
Brook has a hoick at Starc's third ball in the evening spell - it's well wide of the stumps and he succeeds in nicking it to Smith. Don't know what goes through these guys' minds.
Starc moves one clear of the legendary Wasim Akram as the highest wicket takers amongst left arm quicks.
Good effort that.
A couple of what can only be described as stupid dismissals. Could bat for 2 days. Tons for everybody
@NTA said in Ashes 2025/6:
They obviously saw Conway get out today.
Only 32 more runs needed from Root for Hayden to remain clothed this summer.
Oh wow that's a nice runout
Classic one stump, side on, on the run
SCOTTY B!!!
Root and Stokes going along quite nicely - not really troubled. Nice bit of work by Inglis and bang-bang!
Root might get stranded by a declaration!!!
I'd be thinking about it, but probably not brave enough. Tell the bowlers to have a slog!
@Chris-B this Jacks fella was picked for his batting. Let's see it.
This is terrible bowling to Root
And it looks like a plan. Fuck me dead
Anther terrible shot - Jacks this time
Root stranded in the 90s?

Top level keeping
Well done Joe Root. Massive for England over the years, and finally gets the Ashes ton in Australia.
Excellent stuff Root. A class act.
Would Carey be the best glove man in cricket? Incredible keeping today.

He was to Neser too, who was cracking 133kph
