This is so annoying, losing time is the last thing we need.

Whilst I'm moaning, that reminds me, where is Captain Beef Flaps?

There you go!

Scrap that! Fucking hell Woakesy, so unlucky.
Bowling a no ball isn’t unlucky, poor bowling. That said 317 and all out in half an hour is ok. Today is the day we either lose that urn or go to the Oval in with a chance of history. Got to be big quick runs and a lead of 100ish and Oz batting an hour into tomorrow.

Fuck only knows why he's playing at that. Leave the ball alone. At best you're getting a single, ain't worth it. Prat.

Starc is a real handful when he gets it swinging at pace.
I remember Vaughan saying that when he came to Yorkshire he'd never faced anyone that bowls a heavier ball. Never understand how he sometimes gets dropped.

He has not got the pace he used to have. On his day he is the best around.
If he is off a little he becomes erratic. That costs runs.
That would be why.

By the way, take a joke.
A dislike for the Duckett joke? Really.
I guess its ok when Aussie players get called worse than a garden gnome!
Each to their own i guess.

I just think it's the lowest form of humour so gave it a dislike. It's not ok when it's done at Aussies either.
Take a dislike 😜

Moeen looks like a walking wicket here. No foot movement, facing 13 balls almost on the trot now. Root will be in soon.
