2019 Cricket

4 out of the ground so far from Ali after the Aussie keeper dropped a dolly with him on single figures... Would much prefer to be writing that about the Ashes!!
 
From the BBC text updates......

"England will resume today on 200-5, trailing Australia by 297 runs.

In fact, never mind trailing Australia, they're still trailing Steve Smith by 11 runs".

used to love going down the Gray Nicholls factory each spring to pick up a bat or two for the season! They dont press them like they used to though, current ones are twice as thick!!!

I used to go to the warship “factory” in Essex to get my bats and was amazed by the number of blanks being sent out to the pro’s. Even nasser used a warsop!

Any decent club cricketer would have known exactly what Starc was trying to do. You would not be tempted whatsoever by the drive ball.

Dumb thinking and *** technique as you point out.

Ditto Roy last night.

And stokes goes :( now were in all sorts

According to Andrew Samson on TMS Bairstow has the fifth highest percentage of being bowled in the history of test cricket and the highest in the 21st century.

There's a surprise.

He averages 6.66 to straight balls in the last 2 years. 6.66!! Straight balls, in red ball cricket!!

I just wish we had someone better with the gloves and a pretty decent bat too waiting in reserve... 🤔
