In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?
After this bowling spell it's got to be Root if we win.
Maybe Broad outside chance, if England win Root if Aussie Khawaja favourites
I was thinking Root too.
Who said Test Cricket was boring? Crowd getting their moneys worth.
Nah, don't like that 6.
Oh shit.
Oh shit.
They have to take the new ball now
Broad with a new ball coming up.
Gotta take new ball now. Cummins on the charge.
Think that rules out the draw 
Silly.
Well that over has changed things a lot!
Now they need the new ball. That was one over too far.
Youd take the wicket for 14 runs but you'd love that over back
Thanks Joe, that’s enough for now
Almost an incredible catch!
It’s easier to score with the new ball so that’s what’s putting them off I think.
Jesus christ.
This is a great finish, the rain actually helped make it a close tight finish with all results possible. Good stuff
Love a final session of Test cricket. Excitement every ball.
Labuschagne/Green would've claimed that..
New ball please Ben.
DefoThink that rules out the draw
who's favourite now? Aus?I think this is a mistake.
Why no new ball ?
This is baffling captaincy.
Thought Bazball was all about attack?
This is where captains make or break their names in tense situations like this.
To new ball or not to new ball, that is the question.
Surely after this over they take it christ
Do you not think the decision was made with wicket taking in mind?
As much as a new ball can get you a wicket it can also get to the boundary easier
New ball taken, now or never or is this going to be role reverse and Australia going to a win from a difficult position.
Shot!
Need another slip here
This is not looking good.
Just like that.
Just rip their stumps out, please
Should have taken the new ball after Carey got out.
Yeah been Australia's to lose for a while,great test though. Prefer this to getting battered
