Starc getting 7 wickets. England missing their pedestrian slow pitches. Now let's see how their bowlers go in making Australia's batting innings define wether it's really the pitch calling the shots or if this England side is shot?

The Perth pitch is a fast bowlers dream, batter's nightmare. Only Sydney's Spinning pitch is the other bowlers dream. Anyway. Stuff cricket. Conan the Barbarian is almost on.

Cricket changed the world.
Dr Peter Hawkins came up with the technology to assess the LBW calls with the Hawke-Eye camera angle as to see if the ball would hit the wicket or not.
Since then, such technology is now used in a lot of sports.

Btw. Sport is a yellow people thing. Or a part of Australia that culturally serves Asia - fair DINKUM.

“19 wickets, a 116-year low, and one huge problem for Australia
Steve Smith trudges off - a familiar sight for Australia’s batsmen on day one.
A dozen years after Mitchell Johnson terrorised an ageing England team, Australia’s band of veterans is facing a similarly frightful ordeal against one of the fastest pace battalions the old enemy has sent to these shores.
2 hours ago”

I tried to listen to it on the radio ( it’s like being at the game)but it kept dropping out .

It’s only just started, ffs.

It’s a test not a half day promotion gig.

Wait and see.

Personally I love the pitch favours fast bowlers.

It’s going to be a tough game.

I support the No Bonk Ban in Federal Government because I believe anything we can do to stop our current politicians from breeding is best for the future of our nation.
