The New Cricket Thread

[Brownie]

Bowlers have gone into matches without a warm up before. It’s not black and white. There was no widespread concern about Anderson before the game, it’s pure hindsight in action.

Hmm pretty sure a few said he shouldn't have been selected as soon as he was selected.

As they will have done on other occasions when a player had been injured before.

 

But again, the point being made is that he knew he wasn’t fit. Bullshit.

Why are Australia still batting? I mean far be it from me to look a gift horse and all that but wtf?

They must want 500.

[Captain Howdy]

Why though? They have a match to win

[Jairzinho]

Last over I reckon.

[Jairzinho]

So, 96 overs to get 398. Piece of piss. Slower rate than they went at.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

14-3 at stumps.

Might yet bite them on the arse, if England are 8-down this time tomorrow.

Just pretend it's a 1 day total and just go for it.

 

122-8 seems like a year ago.

[Brownie]

Roy playing so far away from his body.

Absolute madness from Australia

[Brownie]

“Can’t be easy coming out to bat at this time of night, facing a 90 mph bowler”, says Shane Warne.

 

Pace in the over - 85mph, 84mph, 84mph, 85mph, 87mph, 84mph.

 

Why do they talk so much shit?

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Warne bangs on like an old woman, I'd love for someone in the box to chin the cunt. I couldn't sit next to him banging on like he does.  

 

Weather supposed to be light rain tomorrow until about 1pm, so could miss a bit of time. Australia have batted us out of the game on a pitch that looks dead. Draw looks like the most likely result, and to be honest it would be fair on both sides. 

[Captain Howdy]

Shane Warne, victim of one of the worst cases of mid life crisis ever seen

[sir roger]

He managed to strump Liz Hurley so I imagine he may be able to shrug off our dislike.

 

Like the way Burns leaves the ball , a very valuable asset for a test opener and one Roy needs to pick up pretty sharpish ( Can't believe he went at that last ball a foot outside off in the situation )

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Ask him why he cheated Ward, I would...then chin the cunt with the mike.

I’m sure he could, I don’t mind Warne to be honest, he does chat bubbles like

[Lee909]

Sky Sports cameras spot England coaches on roof of stadium tomorrow morning 

 

[A_S]

Straight from the Alistair Cook book of declarations, that. Unless the plan is to have Lyon bowl unchanged from one end with 9 men around the bat. Fuck sake. 

 

I'll be most annoyed if England reach stumps 8 down and Anderson not required to bat. 350 from around 100 overs would've drawn a few more attacking strokes from the English batsmen, many of whom aren't exactly known for their restraint with bat in hand. 

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

A bit of rain around in the morning, time for some of our supposed stars to show some bottle.

[Captain Turdseye]

What in the name of fuck has gone on here? Last I seen was the Aussies essentially 3 for 30-odd and I’ve just walked into a pub and seen England set 400 to win. How shit were our bowlers?

[VERBAL DIARRHEA]

Archer must play in the next game, drop Ali. Foakes in for me too as I keep mentioning.

Classic effort mate, you're wasted on this thread though.

[Pureblood]

The first man falls.
