The Cricket thread

Fitting to see Siraj taking the final wicket, especially after taking his Brook catch over the boundary. His bowling was brilliant.

Horrible collapse by England... things you love to see!!

I remember Paul Terry coming out to bat with his arm in a sling against the Windies. Had to face Joel Garner. Only one outcome there.

Ingerland got tanked in the first test in the Ashes, so full of it after bowling the Ozzies out for 132 in the first innings. They collapse again and Head hammers a 69 ball century to cruze home. All over in two days.

Will the punters who bought tickets for the other three days get refunded or is it you pays your money you takes your chance.

Always great to see the Aussies giving them a tanking. Theyre playing test cricket as if it's T20. It'll be worse when Cummins and Hazelwood are back. I think you get a refund if its day 1 to 4, but not day 5. Airlines and accommodation are lost, which is the biggest cost.

And England were so confident before.  Ah well.

Little joy in seeing one arrogant nation beat another arrogant nation.  Reminds me of rangers playing hearts.  No love for either

Full refund.
Cricket Australia generally refund if you see less than 15 overs played in a day, unless you see a result (for example if you had tickets for a day 4 and seen a result in the 14th over then you'd not be refunded).

Eng threw away an Ashes Test win in Australia by being completely brain dead. Stokes bowled really well in the 1st innings but he only bowled 2 overs in the 2nd, one of which went for 17. He lost the plot when Head Bazballed Eng. I think he's fooked fitness wise.

Stokes is almost certainly on a count. Can't go jeopardising his fitness two days into a five test series.
