Off Topic Cricket Thread

It's the one channel I rue not having. But my boy manages to stream alot of their shows and relays them to me. But my eyesight is getting like Mr Magoo's now so watching on smaller devices isn't the best. If something is on there that I really like the look of I usually wait and buy the box sets

 

Who won the toss?

 

Yeah very humid apparently, if we bowl first might regret not having Jimmy in the first hour. Woakes can certainly move the ball around and I'm really looking forward to seeing Robinson bowl

 

Ffs no Broad ! Leach playing. Mmm Warner has just lit up a cigar !

 

Not happened yet.
Broad left out as well as Jimmy.
Big call and not sure I agree.

 

Would we risk playing Broad and Jimmy together in Adelaide ? I think we should've gambled on Briad even if carrying a niggle, such a good record v Left handers and they have 5. Add to that what we did to Warner last time huge call to leave him out. I have a bad feeling that Warner could be pivotal in this series and if he gets off to a good start he could seriously hurt us

 

The toss has just become even more important ! Call tails Root you Northern ferret

 

Yep. Broad against their left handers. Would have been worth a gamble, unless he's got a genuine niggle.

 

I miss Bumble the most, still the funniest ****er on TV lol

 

I think England will be batting whoever wins it.

 

I'd be surprised if Aussies don't bat if they win the toss, especially with bad weather forecast

 

You just don't get Alastair Cook's wacky sense of humour.

 

Get in there Rooty. Told ya, tails never fails lol. We are batting first !

 

Lol I do unfortunately, but Bumble is just hysterical

 

Root calls tails and wins the toss.
England to bat.

 

Cummins confirmed they would have batted too.

Could be a tough first hour with swing and seam.

 

Now just don't get bowled out for 120. Be nice not to be 30-4 for a change. 350 plus required

 

Very tough I would imagine, hopefully Stark sprays it everywhere

 

Gonna be a huge opening session for our openers, if they somehow get through it then could set tge tone for the series. They need the confidence boost early

 

25/1 for Warner to drop a catch in the opening session. Oh now that would be lovely !
