Off Topic England - Cricket

Am guessing it was all about the balance of the side. You could drop Brooks, and Bairstow was absolutely worth his place after the year he's had. The only available slot was opener or wicketkeeper so they've sacrificed a better keeper for a better batter. How much it will cost us will tell over time, but as it stands it's not been a great decision

 

Finally held one!!!!

 

Poor from Head. He's built an innings whilst Marsh was twatting it everywhere, then as soon as Marsh went he's start playing recklessly

 

Its doable this test match providing our batsmen don't decide its a baseball game ...plenty of time in this match

 

Get in Woody.

 

Take 100 away that we wasted on Marsh after dropped catch and we could have been batting by now.
3 to go tho so if we can roll these tailenders out all is looking alot better than an hour ago.

 

Another one gone

 

Just before tea I was thinking 350-400 but we could and should skittle these lot for 275

 

Need to get Wood bowling to Murphy before he tires himself out

 

Bye bye Carey. Cheating twat.

 

Hope his head is still ringing

 

Lack of ambition there son

 

Wood and Woakes. Fantastic bowling

 

Funny old game is cricket...well done Woody.
