Shows what a tough game cricket can be this is from the Beeb

 

Hameed released by Lancashire

We bring you disappointing news from the world of county cricket. Haseeb Hameed, who made a fine start to his Test career in India in 2016, will be released by Lancashire at the end of the season when his contract expires.

Hameed made 31 and 82 on Test debut and an unbeaten 59 with a broken finger in his third match, earned high praise from no less a player than Virat Kohli, and was widely seen as a fine England player in the making.

His form has nosedived since, he could barely buy a run and he has spent a large chunk of the past two seasons in the Lancashire second XI.

A Lancashire statement read: "The club met with Haseeb on Friday and explained its decision, and the 22-year-old is now free to discuss opportunities with other counties."

Just now, Stickman said:

Archer gone...He probably thought after bowling the Aussies out on day one he'd be able to put his feet up for a while on day 2...

 

Welcome to the England cricket team Jofra get used to it

 

I reckon he'll bowl 5mph quicker than the first innings.

England's "mentality monsters" at work here. They struggled to get Steve Smith out in this series so his absence should give them an edge considering the rest of the Aussie batting line-up has been poor. So what happens? Smith's replacement Labuschagne ends up scoring more than the entire England line-up in the very next innings.
