Off Topic Cricket 2021

They had one ****ing job to do……

 

Sees 191 all out. Awesome, we're going to win this.

Glance left. See 10-2. D'oh!

 

Hope no one's got a ticket for day 4!!

 

I'm going tomorrow - breakfast in the Fentiman Arms at 9am.

Perfectly set up for a great day. I'm looking for England to get to around 250 all-out before having an hour at their batsmen, nicking 3 out by the close.

Shouldn't be a problem, should it?

 

Sounds like a perfect day

 

England could easily be looking at a first innings deficit imo.

 

Well, yes they could, but that's not in my plans.

 

Actually nicely balanced after day 1........ Losing Root in last 10 minutes will have given India a huge lift especially after Thacker hit that quick 50 to give India a bit of momentum.........

2-1 in sessions to England, something similar tomorrow would put England in a decent position to take a series lead.....

 

At least we can bat down to number 10

 

Poor shot by Overton. Need an innings from Ollie Pope.

 

Looks like you’ll be seeing us bowl. Nicely balanced.

 

These two are motoring now. I'd be happy to see us bowl for an hour this evening.

 

A good morning session for England & let’s hope they can build on this & we get a decent lead

 

Test cricket is so dull

 

Match completely in the balance.

 

Bairstow looks out.

 

Yep, Bairstow out lbw.

One more quick wicket for India and they'll be in the ascendancy.

 

So negative.

 

****ing hell Moeen, was that really necessary?

Finely balanced stuff, 100 plus lead looks quite big they way these two teams bat.

 

****ing brain dead.
He was looking so good and he's a beautiful shot maker.
Absolutely no need to play such a stupid shot when we're trying to build a lead.
Try to get to 300 and a 100 lead could be invaluable.
