snowychap Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Due to be raining throughout the day tomorrow, so we're effectively in to one day (and not a great forecast) to take 8 wickets. Tough but a good effort to get here. Burns looks like he's there until he really falls out of form, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowychap Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Turned out to be pretty run of the mill today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, cold, windy, Windies leaving to go home tomorrow and not much chance of them really saving the game. Not much of a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Woakes didn't do very well did he. Selectors must drop him and bring in someone from a Southern County. In my time following cricket, this has always been an important qualification !!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 We have so many good seamers. Woakes is a terrific bowler. Why cant Anderson just retire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Broad proving the decision to drop him was foolish. Great performance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Weather permitting, going to Warks on Sunday - Bob Willis Trophy - v. Northants. My mate down to day and said it was a rather weird atmosphere . Batsmen retiring to give others a bat. Lots of social distancing etc. (Sir) Ian Bell got a decent score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last 18 months or so his bowling average for England has been around 20. Should never be dropped when performing like that IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Should not have thrown the captains armband to Ali, just going to further ruin his confidence. Bit of an embarrassing defeat on the cards here, obviously a weakened team with the test guys excluded, but still. Don't look like taking a wicket.

Couple of great innings for sure but the bowling and fielding was pretty average at best in the main. A full England side with an appropriate captain on the pitch does not lose that game.

Wainy316 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Seriously, stop organising test cricket in Manchester. Nowhere else is raining. Happened last time too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
