The New Cricket Thread

[Hand Shandy]

Fucking hell... The panning shot of the MCC members was like the visual definition of white male privilege.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

After a decent start that wicket has reeled NZ in, not a great PP from their prospective. 3.3 RR is not great. 

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Probably advantage England so far. Williamson looks to me like he intends to be there at the end of the 50 overs. We need to stop that from happening. Another wicket soon would be lovely. 

[Dougie Do'ins]

That wicket looks green as fuck.

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Black Caps will just play Woakes out - Plunkett in particular and Wood need to step it up.

Wood's has been the most disappointing bowler to date, hopefully he has a good day. It'll be interesting to see how Rashid gets on. 

[Dan Vito Corleone]

Well, it's a day for Wood I'd say. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Excellent 7 overs from Woakes, pity he couldn't get another wicket like.

Yes, I'm not seeing this as a wicket that needs 300. Even if it does flatten a bit. Woakes has shown that if you bowl well it's difficult to get away.

How great is it to have cricket back on free to air tv? 

Even if it's just one day

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Twats on their Mobiles.

State of this crowd.

I wonder what favours Sky will be getting for this.

The only thing I like about Lords is the media spaceship.

 

Slope - crap

Crowd - crap

"Home of cricket" - crap (see also Wembley)

Elitism/bacon & eggs tie brigade - crap

[Dan Vito Corleone]

I am starting to get worried here. We need to bang our heads together in this drinks break. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

After stifling the batsmen somewhat, we could do with a wicket soon so as their innings building goes to waste. 

[Creator Supreme]

Think NZ will do it, England seem a little meek!

[Pureblood]

 

Add two wickets to the score

[Dougie Do'ins]

Anyone else seeing way to many empty seats ? Was this not sold out ?

Late comers, maybe. But it certainly isn't full. 

[Stickman]

Plunkett is just so easy to hit.

 

[Creator Supreme]

Turned it off, boring the piss out of me!

Who's who of total cunts in the crowd.

Most of them will turn up at Wimbledon later 

[Jairzinho]

Excruciating commentary. Fucking hell.
