England v Australia - THE ASHES

And it will be very interesting to see how a new spinner to the team will bowl in Abu Dhabi vs. Pakistan with England having gone the last 16 Tests with Ali and Root doing the spinning job. No pressure there then on spinner-friendly wickets.

This has been as daft as using Trott as an opener in the West Indies instead giving Lyth some experience before the Ashes.
 

If Lyth fails again in this test then Hales should be given a go. He shouldn't just be seen as a one day batsman. Trescothick was a destructive one day batsman and he could also bat in Test cricket.
I bet they stick with Lyth though.

A few years back, Notts wouldn't play Hales in their four day team due to his technical deficiencies and even considered loaning him out to someone less discerning. But now though, different story!
 

this no ball stuff is an absolute farce. everytime there's a wicket they check don't they? anything else just doesn't get called.

3 wickets from no balls from england this series, all have been missed, you'd think the umpires would be keen to keep an eye on it today, but nah, missing everything.

i heard BBC asked about it and it was refused to be answered by the ICC.
 
fairly carbon copy of lord's this one. we just need to bat the same length as them if days 4 and 5 are washed out as expected.

looked straight and didn't do anything that from siddle.
