Well I spoke too soon.

Me too ☹️

Warner has a habit of getting one good innings right when he's on the verge of getting dropped. Let's hope he can pull that off again this time.

Uhoh. Poms are in control.

I'm OK for it to rain, now 🙏😁

The decision to go in with no spinner is an interesting one.

Probably speaks to not trusting Murphy 🫤 Hopefully doesn't backfire, though I do like the look of that batting order

Wobbly start but a nice rebuild by Smudge and Marnus. Let's hope they can go big, it looks like a nice batting track.

I mean I guess there is 2 days to go?

No1@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 3y

Right now, I would prefer 0 days to go. We win the Ashes if this test is a draw....

Pitch looks like a good one for batting. Good start, and have only lost Ussie

Starc getting a nice little bit of movement away to the lefties

Test is all about if it will rain, and if not, if the pitch will stay consistent. If it doesn't Mo Ali will win it
