So early after it was put back to a later time good old cricket!

They're now saying play will resume at 16:20.

Marsh gone, but target down to 116. That squeaking sound you can hear is my relentlessly puckering bum.

:eek:

Smith out!

Sankari · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:00

I fear we'll go down quickly from this point.

Sankari · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:02

6 down!

SoliD · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:03

Your fears are founded. Absolutely incredible scenes....

SoliD · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:03

That was an amazing catch

Bairstow - can't keep for ****!

Sankari · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:06

Bairstow deserves MOTM for that one.

COLLAPSIO!

Sankari · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:09

This will be over very soon.

SoliD · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:10

Hopefully, but I'll take the nerves and pain for broad to get the last one with you boys needing a run or two

Why no one around the bat for Carey??!

If we can get the deficit to <100 by the time we're all out, I think it's safe to say we can claim the Moral Ashes.

Remembering how Murphy batted in the first innings, I'm still a bit worried.

Is moral Aussie slang for something?

Yeah agreed, this could still be tight

Feels like we could have skittled the Aussies out for about 50 if we just kept having a little break every half hour for a snack.

Sankari · 31 Jul 2023 at 17:28

And that's it, Australia wins the Moral Ashes! Amazing scenes!
