Nevermind, great match though.

Another edgbaston classic.
Win for the Aussies but the bigger picture ... it's a win for test cricket ... the best format.
RE: It's The Ashes (again) - strawman - 06-20-2023
Any chance of playing a keeper in the next test or are we gonna stay with dropsy ?
RE: It's The Ashes (again) - MancBaggie - 06-20-2023
Great game tbf. Swung so many ways
Good knock from the skipper after a brilliant hand from Khawaja
RE: It's The Ashes (again) - Borin' Baggie - 06-20-2023
Right then, great game but the debrief has to look at Bairstow keeping as the big reason we lost that one.

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, great test match, knife edge tension and all that.
In reality, I never really thought we looked like we were going to do it after tea.
Shame, fair dues to the oppositon, whom I loathe.

I genuinely feel for Bairstow. He's not a genuine wicket keeper and has been asked to take the gloves, but his dropped catches and missed stumping have probably cost his team the match. Would we have won this test with Foakes behind the stumps?
Next Test I'd go;
Bairstow
Duckett
Pope
Root
Brook
Foakes (WK)
Stokes (If fit?)
Robinson
Broad
Anderson
(Insert full time spinner here)

And a defeat. Fugg being plucky losers.
