Aussies romp in. Starc 5fa.
Josh Hazlewood set the scene for the day with the wickets of Chris Woakes (5) and Joe Root (67), in the first few overs.
Jonny Bairstow (36) fought on gallantly till Mitchell Starc - 5/88 - ran through the tail, to see Australia win by 120 runs. Hazlewood and Nathan Lyon took 2 wickets each.
Shaun Marsh was named Player of the Match.

It's a game. Enjoy it.

Not arrogant, I think, just tactically incompetent. Batting skill and captaincy skill are two completely different things. The decision belies very rigid thinking.piedys wrote:Just goes to show what an arrogant f&ck Smith has become.Donny wrote:5/74. Lyon out for 14.
We had the option to send those DUDS in for follow-on, with an entire session under lights with a seaming ball, having already taken 9 of their wickets in the previous two sessions; but no - his majesty Lord Know-it-all sends us back in.
This test should have been close to over today. Bravo cock head.
If we lose this, I hope he and Lehmann both get the arse.
