5th TEST

[fcblackpool]

How lucky was that!!! Bairstow losing his balance like that.

 

[BFC_53]

And another!!! This is fantastic!

 

[foggy]

The finish this series deserves

 

[SeasideKurt]

Woakes tearing through them.

Zak Crawley has been magnificent in the slips.

 

[Old_Laytonian]

And I wasn't going to bother watching when I finished work at 4.30

 

[foggy]

Woakes has been absolutely immense. They can't play him at all. We'd have cakewalked this series if Jimmy hadn't been so poor.

 

[Mark_GT]

Finally things go our way. Brilliant from these two. Keep that ball!

 

[NewburyOne]

England looked beaten after the Smith drop but have just had a magic spell. This isn't over yet though, this pair are dangerous. What a series this has been, just when you think a game is done, there's another twist.

 

[bill40]

Look at this logically it's either a draw or an Aus win, oh a wicket. That makes no odds it's still, oh another wicket. But seriously we still can't oh another wicket. I'm still right oh another wicket. I need to keep this up we still haven't a chance!!

 

[Ollygon]

This is not good for my blood pressure

 

[Matesrates]

Going down to the wire this one

 

[Mark_GT]

New ball or stick?

 

[Matesrates]

New ball or stick?

Stick for now

 

[NewburyOne]

Bye bye Pat

 

[bill40]

Look at this logically it's either a draw or an Aus win, oh a wicket. That makes no odds it's still, oh another wicket. But seriou

New ball or stick?

ly we still can't oh another wicket. I'm still right oh another wicket. I need to keep this up we still haven't a chance!!

This is not good for my blood pressure

 

[Wizaard]

Needed that

 

[glasshalffull]

Won’t need the new ball now I think!

 

[Hertsseasider]

Wowser

 

[bill40]

Sorry I've gone mad another wicket

 

[Matesrates]

yes

 

[Ollygon]

This is ridiculous.

 

[foggy]

Was never in doubt. England are just simply a clearly superior team to the Aussies I'm afraid.

 

[Mark_GT]

Slow Mo working out perfectly- more grip

 

[Threepeaksphil]

Stopped for drinks they are taking the piss. Come on England roll over the last two

 

[bill40]

New ball now Wood and Broady to see off the tail.

 

[SeasideKurt]

Carey going for it.

 

[Mark_GT]

I bet there isn't one of us who've been following this all summer who thinks this is in the bag. It's like watching the Pool in 7 hour chunks

 

[BFC_53]

Experience as an England fan tells you this isn't a formality, not by a long way. You can tell the crowd think the same.

 

[glasshalffull]

Maybe they should take the new ball after all.

How important was that ball that hit Khawaja on the helmet and caused them to change the first ball to this one!

 

[no9]

6

 

[Matesrates]

Can’t stand this

 

[Matesrates]

Need Woakes back on

 

[SeasideKurt]

They're gonna get this.

 

[Wizaard]

Change the bails change your luck.

Bang

 

[Macseasider]

You couldn't write this script. Incredible Broady. The old bail trick!

 

[NewburyOne]

Come on Broady!!! Just 1 more bit of magic please.

 

[Matesrates]

Beautiful

 

[Hertsseasider]

Wow

 

[Mark_GT]

Top shithousery there!

 

[Matesrates]

Need Woakes back on

What do I know

 

[hertfordseasider]

What a beauty, he can't retire, he only looks about 20 still!!

 

[Macseasider]

What a beauty, he can't retire, he only looks about 20 still!!

I know. He really could do another couple of years.

I just wonder if Jimmy hasn't missed a trick not retiring too.

Unbelievable bowling this over.

 

[BFC_53]

What a brilliant ending!

 

[SeasideKurt]

Perfect ending and so well deserved, what a player!

 

[Ollygon]

Fairytale

 

[NewburyOne]

Wow, just wow! England have been incredible today. No way did the Aussies deserve to win that series. If it weren't for rain....

 

[Matesrates]

Brilliant

 

[Wizaard]

Great stuff. This is why test cricket is so much better than the bish bash bosh of one day formats.

 

[Dave62]

Brilliant match. Fully deserved victory, well done lads.
If only we could have managed more play in the final 2 days at OT

 

[bill40]

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A six off his final innings and a wicket in his last spell, LEGEND.
