FUCK that could have killed him. I’m guessing the helmet took a bit of that blow or he wouldn’t have walked off

Hit Smith in the EXACT spot Phil Hughes got hit and died from.

Stupidity not to wear neck protectors. They need to be made mandatory.

Think it caught him more on the neck than the back of the head ie the tragic incident of Hughes.
Scary that he was probably a few centimetres from being seriously injured

Has Joe Root ever put in a proper captain’s innings before? He is vastly, vastly overrated and to put him in the same bracket as Smith, Kohli and Williamson is just a smack in the face to those three batsman who are LEVELS above him.

I took 4/1 the Aussies simply because it wouldn’t be the biggest shock if we fucked this up

Haha Hoddle is at the cricket

Root is starting to remind me of David Icke.

Who the hell else is next as captain?

England to be bowled out with a lead of 200 half an hour before lunch tomorrow would set up a great finish to the test match. Can England get another 170? Not so sure myself
