Looked well in

 

[waspish]

Nope out that’s the only way we was going to get anyone out this morning

 

[wattle]

Not very good odds for a draw I recon

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Brilliant bit of fielding by Stokes.

Give Root a bowl.

Well, on the train home from Victoria. At least Lancs utter incompetence allowed us to get home before the Oasis crowd made it back from Heaton Park! That game was done once we started dropping the catches. You can't drop those in a Test Match. Let alone a T20!

Went to Northants yesterday evening. Lots of big hitting and beer.

India’s tail begins here….

As my Dad used to say, "we're bowling for run outs"!

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Absolutely spot on. It’s disgraceful. The balls have been shit in England for three years. Why on earth haven’t kookaburra got their act together or the ECB try someone else? Embarrassing

It's a Dukes ball in this series. They brought the Kookaburra into County cricket but its still a Dukes for the Tests in England.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Important wicket.

 

[waspish]

Great bit of bowling by Bashir

 

[waspish]

Sums up England that in the series in the field who the fcuk should be backing up the stumps there also Pope turns throws with no awareness! Wake up England

 

[BringBackSwales]

Fucking useless fielding Pope

Fucking useless fielding Pope

has a long standing injury issue with his right shoulder - should've have both those run outs tho'.

the lost art of hand stitching a cricket ball

I sometimes wonder if these overpaid cunts like Pope actually think they just need to turn up and play the matches and play golf in between rather than hard practice like they should be doing, INCLUDING FIELDING

They still make them by hand as far as I know! Probably that blokes hungover grandson fucking them up!

If he isn’t fit enough to facilitate an easy run out then don’t play him

 

[jimharri]

Can we get them out for a lead of 50 or 60 runs? Probably not!
