Off Topic England cricket 2021

Yes that's what Boycott always used to say

 

England 134-2 still training by 337 runs and Bumrah is bowling fantastically

 

I believe it was W G Grace who said "win the toss, think about inserting the opposition, then bat".

India's bowling attack looks fairly ordinary, but they have Bumrah, who definitely is not ordinary.

 

Going to be an exciting last day tomorrow. Need 350 with all wickets intact.

 

Should be a good day, hope the weather is OK.

 

There are three main ways to dismiss a batsman, bowled, lbw and caught. In the first 48 balls of India's innings England bowlers would have hit the stumps just three times. If this was intentional I do not comprehend the rationale. If not, incompetence seems rife.

 

Just about halfway there without loss. Looking good, weather permitting.

 

205-1 I really need to go to bed!

 

Oh we just lost another one 206-2

 

206 - 2,have a good sleep, it's going to be close.

 

147 runs to go, 47 overs, 8 wickets left and rain around too.... now I really must go to bed!

 

Stokes out being very irresponsible, trying, mostly badly, to reverse sweep nearly every ball from Jedeja. Not good captaincy.

 

Remarkable test match win for England. India become the first side to lose having scored five centuries during the match.
