Sorry but The Ashes means it's thread revival time. What are the usual posters thinking of the start so far. Stokes, from hero to zero? Entertainment versus common sense? Was dropping Foakes right call? No Wood?

Broad is gonna take some ones head off
😳
Never noticed before - "Consolidatorised" ?!? WTF does that mean?
Our bowling line up is unusual. Anderson is 40 and still one of the best. Mo Ali coming out of retirement did well to get two out, just read he got Parkinsons in 1984. But why don't we trust our younger bowlers ?
Aussies tail end doesn't wag - for a change
Quelle surprise
ITS PISSING DOWN
It's been a good test match so far
and still hard to call
Ahh bugger
😦 🏏
Matches are won and lost on catches. Stokes had the game in his hands - then he didn't.
I don't follow Test cricket but fair play to those that do.
My gripe is the stupid advert on Sky where the idiot with the rake is talking to the men who are boarding up the scoreboard and he asks why? And they tell him him England are playing and he says 'Crack on' If he is the groundsman he should f**king know there's a match on !
What the hell has happened to Root??
Victory!
Series still alive
Some good morning Wood, for those watching on Australian time. Man of the match.
Well done ENgland another great game

It's started wagging , last two out for 1 run each. Makes us slight favourites. Plus The British ladies gave the Aussies a rare thrashing (don't even think about it MM ... that wouldn't be cricket)
