O/T The Ashes

[Brin]

Absolutely phenomenal today!!!

Chasing 317, not an easy task, England started badly with Duckett going for 1 in 6 balls. I thought oh know here we go.....

Moving on Mo Ali hit 54 from 82 balls so not a bad contribution before he disappeared.

Now here's the BIG news! Crawley batting as number 2 has so far hit a massive 187 not out and Jo Root is 69 not out. With the extras, England are now on 324-2 a lead of 10. Brilliant brilliant brilliant!!!!

Keep on batting and take this as far as you can it's only day 2. Come on let's see 500 plus+

Fireworks time now Brin.

150 in front will do and we have a great chance of making the Oval all square 🤗

Frog, my thoughts would be to be pushing for 200+ before considering declaring. It's only day three tomorrow and there's some very bad weather coming up at the weekend. I'd hate it to be a draw and they retain the ashes.

That's the worst spell of weather that we've had for a while 😃
