This being big and strong men fighting, seems to still involve fishing around outside off stump.

David Gower tribute act.
Any sign of Root with his jockstrap on his head, pencils up his nose and saying 'wibble'?
Excitement abounds that England get past 250. In a test match. On a virtual road.
AND make Australia take the 2nd new ball for the 1st time all series.
A veritable triumph.
I wouldn't check the score this morning
Rain forecast for Sunday, so ... never mind.
Appears they almost made a fight of it today? Almost more annoying.
Almost. Although every time someone dug in, they then made an error. Brook and Smith being the most obvious examples.
But hey, we got to half way through day 5. Definitely an improvement.
Well thank heaven's they managed to get the proper rest, or that could have been messy.
We're going to win the next one. Hopefully they've figured out that a 4 day bender isn't ideal prep for cricket and this time they have gone for a 6 dayer.
Fans call for empathy, after England cricket team ruin another fucking holiday in Australia.
For fuck sake
A while ago I decided to subject myself to this, as I wanted to visit to the MCG for the first time ever. When I booked, the 1st day was sold out, and I couldn't decide between the 3rd or 4th day. I picked the 3rd day. In light of recent results I considered my self fortunate thinking that, by then, most people won't give a fuck and I can sneak down from my seat in row Z to one with a closer view. Now I don’t even know if they’ll open the ground. Bazball bastards.
I'm not watching, but to be fair Aus got skittled first so I'm assuming the pitch is doing a lot.
Yeah, a local commentator said this morning that they’d prepared a spicy, perhaps too spicy, pitch.
