A bit harsh on Bairstow, the shot he played down the ground he obviously thought there was two in it, so would have retained the strike. I think it's always better to have a wicket keeper batman than a specialist keeper like Foakes ;D
Looks like the good old British weather is going to win the Ashes for Australia :O
We'll be lucky to get any play today, and tomorrow's forecast has got worse.Quote:

Yup. Not looking good. Bit of a tease that no rain at The Open for a little while and that’s not too far from the cricket.Quote:
