The Cricket Thread

Oh dear, the poor things. How very sad. What a pity.

 

It is a weird one as they really don’t appeal. How does not one player look at the umpire to ask?

 

You can actually see the umpire looking at the player who had the ball, then after he ran off he looked around to the next nearest player then just seemed to think “**** ‘em”.

 

How would you rank Stokes' top 10 moments in an England shirt in test cricket? Link below has 10 options. I think number 1 is bloody obvious quite frankly but would be interesting to see other people's opinions. My top is below.

Duckett is motoring along. England 62-0 in less than 10 overs!

 

100-1 Crawley out for 15 .

 

Brilliant, counter-attacking century from Duckett.

 

England now going at over 6 an over.

 

What a day's play!

 

Ashwin has withdrawn from the 3rd Test for personal reasons. He can only be replaced with a sub fielder who can't bat or bowl so that's a huge advantage to England. So it's operation block Bumrah, whack everyone else out of the park tomorrow.

 

Didn’t work out like that, sadly

 

India declare on 430-4

England need 557 to win

Crawley out for 11

Duckett out for 4 ( Run out )

Now. Call me a pessimist , but i think we might lose this game!

 

28-4

 

I feel like the fightback starts here

 

where ?

 

Haha we were about 8 down when I posted that

 

Did they have a beer match after?

 

Bazball - OUT
Rootball - IN

 

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brilliant, brilliant hundred on a challenging pitch to bat on. He's got England to a good total.
