O/T:- The Ashes 2023

A truly remarkable field, and must have been playing on Kawajas mind, and seemed to draw a false shot from him. England were very unlucky with the weather, losing those two quick wickets, in very difficult batting conditions, lets hope that is not the difference between winning and losing.

I feel the game has been affected by the umpires getting two wickets before the game was halted by the weather ten minutes after it should have been.

If England were bowling, we'd probably have said the umpires were right to keep them out playing...

True. We'd have taken it, had it fallen in our favour, but it didn't. That's the way it goes.............

Meh, 100 runs short, Engerland twere. Bat on in the 1st inning instead of a declaration and bat a bit better in the 2nd and you've got em. With the time that would have taken out of the game it would have meant Aussie needing 350+ on the last day and given us a real good chance at victory. Watching Jodi playing for Malta at the mo, Optus Sports 3 for all you firestick freaks.

I'll stick with my original thoughts on this test.
