Off Topic Cricket.....yay!

Jimmy's not a happy man at the moment - three dropped catches off him in two overs.

Jimmy is ticking!

It may well do unfortunately.

Is anyone near Southampton? If there is hows the weather looking?

Drop no.4 in 37 balls and none of them particularly difficult (for a professional). How long until Jimmy punches one of his team mates?

 

[rangercol]

Buttler was a little unlucky, as the ball moved in the air as it reached him.
Jimmy will be ticking.

England look rather lacklustre this morning.

 

[rangercol]

Not going to happen for Jimmy today is it?

 

[jeffranger]

Yes Jimmy 600 & yes caught at slip eventually

 

[Stroller]

600 for Jimmy!

Truly fantastic achievement for a fast bowler, well done Jimmy. I'm old enough to still remember watching Freddie Trueman become the first bowler to take 300 Test wickets back in the 60s, that seemed amazing then but shows how much more Test cricket is played these days...

 

[rangercol]

Fantastic achievement from Jimmy.

Absolutely outstanding.

Live cricket back on the BBC!

England chasing 196, but off to a decent start 30-0 after 3 overs.

Tom Banton looks like another good young talent for England.

 

[rangercol]

Absolutely fantastic run chase from England.
Considering the players who weren't there, we have real strength in depth.

 

[jeffranger]

Tremendous win, this side is full of runs everywhere, bowling could be better though

Surely not all first choice bowlers though?

No just today, bowling too many 4/6 balls

No just today, bowling too many 4/6 balls

I meant today.

Back to bashing up the Aussies tonight. Buttler going to town, but Bairstow just gone. 43-1 off 4.

 

[rangercol]

England struggling now as the Aussies fight back.
Really need our strongest side against this lot.
Everything depends on Malan now to get us to a decent total.
