Re: 3rd Ashes Test - Australia v England - MCG
There’s no way, with batting as fragile as it is, they will select Wood, Broad, Anderson and Leach. It would also be harsh on Robinson who, IMO, has been England’s best bowler in 2021. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were looking at Overton to be honest.

Any recommendations on how to get good MPG? I’ve got a Diesel engine and I can usually get anywhere between 40s to 50s MPG. I try to use cruise control and stick to the speed limit. However, how much difference does things like sticking the heating on make?
Thanks in advance!

What’s really noticeable about that footage is the way both teams just jog back to the centre circle after a brief celebration when they score. Even Moore does in the last minute. Now it would be, head to the corner, entire team goes over, try to waste time, then get back as slow as possible.
