Root out and finally a declaration.

Azza · 21 Jul 2013 at 11:16

Guessing they wanted Root to get 200 and he just got a bit bored? Haha

Wouldn't be surprised if he was told to do it within half an hour or get out.

Shane Warne on Sky sailing a bit close to the wind with his "everyone likes a bit of root in the morning"

Yes I chuckled too.

Shame root got a bit impatient. Australia stopped them getting ones so unable to rotate the strike to get him in, thus limiting his time probably set by cook/management team, looks a bit silly now. Oh well.

Root and Cook could be disgusting at the top of the order for the next few years.

Imagine walking out with 2 days left needing 583, they should have played the Mission Impossible theme during the walk out.

rotters · 21 Jul 2013 at 11:56

Watson out again hehe

Jimbeam3678 · 21 Jul 2013 at 11:57

That's one gone! Let's have it wrapped up this afternoon

Doohickey · 21 Jul 2013 at 11:58

Lolwatsonlbw. I almost feel sorry for him.

rotters · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:12

Beauty!!!!! What a ball from swann, Rodgers out now.

Psycho Ned · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:14

This aint gonna last long!

If you've got a ticket for tomorrow you'll be getting a refund I think

Doggie2k · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:16

I hate this team now with a passion!!!

No heart what so ever, the rot is still there after 5 years

Doohickey · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:22

Lol Rogers.

Poor Australia. They have no 'giants' left. No one in the team that intimidates or strikes fear into the opposition, the likes of Hayden, Waugh, Warne, McGrath etc. Clarke maybe on a good day. Pretty ordinary openers, middle order, seamers...

Yas786 · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:28

LMAO dear god the Aussies are just so pathetically inept in both bowling and batting, cant bat and cant bowl...already England got 2 early wickets to leave this sad Aussie side rocking. No standout batter or bowler in this Aussie side.

No chance in hell they will save or win this test. England will be 2 up in the series, might as well pack their bags and go home poor Aussies

. But its nice to see England completely dominate Australia.

Jimbeam3678 · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:34

Wonder what our fair weather friend Evangelion will make of all this when he decides to pop in.

Bumble is quality to listen to on Sky

Edit another one gone ? umpire review.......

Hughes gone now.

Reviewed and still out.

Azza · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:35

Phil Hughes has gone... Until the review.

Jimbeam3678 · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:36

GONE!!!

Psycho Ned · 21 Jul 2013 at 12:37

Least this will be all over in time for the business end of the golf and TDF
