How is Carey still getting away with this? The cheeky prick did this all through the india series too

'I like what's happening here Gary'

what, batsmen easily picking his short balls off?

To be fair that was actually a legit appeal. The ones in India where the foot had never moved an inch were hilarious though.

Lyon's looking real good here. Definitely not making Duckett's life easy.

 

[halba]

Is this flatter than a Rawalpindi road? Even Aussie bowlers would do more there...

Nothing in it for the bowlers. Not even a millimetre of air swing.

 

[ashley bach]

Marnus under the helmet never short of yapping a bit of rubbish.

 

[sledger]

Ok we are now comfortably into stage 1.

Still no sign of stage 2. Good.

Called him gareth the ball after. Maybe he does need a hogpile.....

Nah he's been way too short IMO. Duckett's made him look way better then he's been because he's shanked a few pulls and found the fielder on the cut.

wish great man Symonds was here to give it to him

When did Hazelwood get so ****

 

[Croadymeister]

Has Pietersen's & Vaughan's words stung them into action. Well we now have the same platform their openers gave them. Whether we can build on that remains to be seen

 

[Nintendo]

Not giving haze the new ball here seems really odd. Green and haze are fairly similiar bowlers, you don't want them operating with the older rock at the same timer ideally. Would be better if it was cummins and green after haze and starc.

 

[RightArmMystery]

0/31 off 4. Hazlewood playing the Robinson role

 

[loterry1994]

Get hazlewood the hell off

 

[Bahnz]

I continue to be shocked by how quickly these hacks rack up runs. Another hour, another 70 or 80 runs.

You see we desperately needed Mitch Starc so he could bowl "inswingers" with a scrambled seam somehow.

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

Josh Hazelwood never seen a batter like Ben Duckett before.

 

[Son Of Coco]

England too good at the moment with the bat. Hopefully I wake up in about 7 hours time to 5-6 wickets down...but at the moment it looks like that would have to be 5-6 medical emergencies.

He does seem way more prone to off-days than people think. It probably doesn't help that he's still short of a gallop in terms of how much cricket he's played.

But I don't really get what he's doing.
