Third Ashes Test, Perth

[Justinf]

Agree.

Was beer a ruse for the pommies?

I think he will play in Melbourne, definitely Sydney.
I would have liked to have seen Steve Smith send down a few overs at some stage late int he day, but hey, we got Collingwood out on the last ball so what wiuld I know.

Australia looking good again.

England 5 for 81 and in a lot of trouble.

England has managed to make it to Sunday but not much further. Only Bell and Prior left. Should be over by lunch tomorrow.

Austalia finally all out for 309 and a lead of 390.

England in serious trouble at 3 for 55 with another 30+ minutes to go tonight.

Unless weather intervenes we go to Melbourne 1-1 in the series....

Weather? In Perth? In Summer? Maybe too much glare might be a problem.

Maybe Brisbane can send Perth some of their clouds to reduce the glare and then both cities can be overcast every day with a 50% chance of rain. :shock:

More than happy to accept on Tuesday (or hopefully tomorrow).

Marvellous effort that, Australia.
The boxing day test is going to hold some interest after all!

Seems like a wicket with 'something in it' may be the key. Perhaps England are just 'flat track bullies' (says he hopefully)

 

[JohnK]

Good win Australia.

How about now. Brisbane City is flooded. Just as well I was walking up hill.

So who is going to make the team for Melbourne? 4 quicks turned out to be the right choice for Perth, but will Melbourne also be a town with no Beer?

Its Beer versus Siddle I suspect, and Siddle loves the G!
