Anag Ram Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Not test cricket but can anyone tell me how Tom Curran gets picked repeatedly by England? Good 'death bowler' seems to mean bowls three overs for thirty-odd then pulls it back by only going for eight in the fourth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many years ago, Australia picked spinner Peter Taylor and it is widely thought that the selectors had intended to pick opener Mark Taylor. What we have here is the wrong Curran.

AndyinLiverpool Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 In fairness to Curran, England have been generally rubbish so far. Anag Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyinLiverpool Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Lot's of full tosses being bowled by England. Poor stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Cracking T20 game but the Morgan run out probably the telling moment. Tees it up nicely for a decider though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you're right, doh! Swear my brain is still in lockdown ? As @Anag Ramsays, a fair result on balance. Pakistan were really good today and even though we looked like we might steal it at one point, I think they were more than good value for the win. Have to say that the tests and the T20's have been played in really good spirit too which has always been the case in recent years. hard cricket without the daftness. It's been good stuff.

Boycie Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I watched England’s innings and the first 5 from the Aussies. Then went to the pub, I checked the score and thought they were going well enough to cruise it. I did a double take when the notification from sky sports dinged up! strewth!

They cruised it for 14 overs, then failed to get 39 off 36 balls with 9 wickets left ? They lost 5 for 24 in the next 5 overs ? SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannable Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 The last time England won The Ashes without Ian Bell, Ian Bell himself was four years old. Have a good retirement, Belly Comrade 86 and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
