O/T:- The Ashes 2023

[The_Don_ORiordan]

Sooooo Josh tongue in for Mo. No wood as the captain is worried he can’t get thorough 5 days having played no cricket - so why have him in the squad? He isn’t gonna play any cricket sat in the stands.

So no Wood because he hasn’t played in a month (same as Jimmy before the last test).

And no Mo, because he injured himself after not playing any long form for over two years.

Tongue was average at best against Ireland. It’s going to be a few long days in the field this test.

Hopefully the weather might save us.

Tongue bites back after a lashing.

He bowled well once he settled.

Been a poor day so far. The conditions and pitch are not 260/3.

307-3 off 72 overs.

We've not bowled particularly well and the Aussies look like they have us in their pocket!
