How much was Bairstow on when the Burnley Botham walked out? It couldn't be much more than mid fifties, given it was a 66 run partnership, and Anderson contributed 5 of them. I realise that there were a few extras chucked in there.

Quite a few extras as the convicts have totally lost the plot especially Cummins

Off Wood’s bowling

With Carey going for a wander

C’mon Jimmy you old **** ……

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Great innings from the whole team that. Redemption knock for Jonny. Just need some Jimmy wickets to put the icing on the cake now!

Sorry Michael Fish but it’s you who is wrong

is it fuck. They maybe get 120 today, that means we need to get them out for another 150 ish over 2 rain interrupted days, a nice and sensible lead to bowl at

I think those extra runs were 100% worth the short amount of time taken, despite what one of our resident dickheads thinks. Far less likely to have to bat again and not much time taken out of the game

Bit aggressive for the cricket thread? Calm down eh

This is the England cricket thread, a lot more aggressive these days, like the 86 runs we put in for the last 2 wickets in no time when done visionaries would have had us declaring. Wise up eh

Anybody else got a creeping fear of Australia batting out for 2.5 days?

Yeah especially with the weather forecast!

More likely 1 and a half days.

If they do, they do, nothing we can do about it. They're the world champions for a reason so it's possible.

 

[jimharri]

We could do with 8 or 9 3 or 4 of these lot out by close of play.

Visionaries eh :)

Crawleys mentality fucking stinks. 2 balls before lunch first innings, made it so clear he didn’t want to be out there second in innings. Shit technique, shitter mentality. Just battle away you weak minded **** and don’t expose the better batsmen

As I said, I think the psychological ascendency we have over them is now a factor.
They will obviously make no attempt to do anything other than draw. They'll block, and block. They'll leave and leave. It's down to the bowlers to tempt them. They've got to do the Dance of the Seven Veils in front of them.
Count on Stokes to set an aggressive field. It's not about runs now. Come on England!

Whatever happens happens, but we've put ourselves in with a damn good chance that's all we can ask

Visionaries eh :)

I can own up to my mistakes but funny how you said nothing at the time and then became a hindsight smart arse. I am happy to accept my words about Zak Crawley were way too harsh and inappropriate. However I didn’t wait until he scored 189 before I did it; when he was in single figures I posted yesterday that he will get a ton, so that was indeed quite visionary. I also posted after that that he would get a double ton but wasn’t such a visionary on that occasion.

they said punishment doesnt stop the crime

Send them to Australia.
