Bloody Lyth again ! Thing is England MIGHT not be chasing much of a target in the second innings so maybe he won't have the opportunity to build a decent score. Another early dismissal in the second innings and this surely will be "Curtains" for him.

If I was about to be beheaded by a member of ISIS this very moment I could not name you one single England Cricket player, unless of course Ian Botham, David Gower & Geoffrey Boycott are still playing.

But we have Lyth to open ! I've got a sneeky feeling he might outscore the Aussies, collectively.
At least he outscored them individually!
Optimistic as ever |

Hales or Stoneham seem to be the next cabs on the rank

If we do wrap up the ashes in this test do you think that the selectors will give him one final chance in the final test ?

One of the most dominant day's play I've seen.....And I've watched a lot of English cricket.....Oh happy day. It seems though that batting competence outside of your own country's classic conditions is becoming rarer and rarer. You can see how the culture of faster scoring just doesn't work on English overcast mornings.....That's a flat pitch game.
