dabber Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I think we are in trouble. Majority of our bowlers are old or injured or both! Don't have enough in the bowling attack to take 20 wickets, Highlighted by hoping to get Lyon out with the short stuff with 50 odd needed for the last two wickets. Smith and Labuschange didn't need to show up and they still won. (Nailed on 4-1 to us.....!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NottsRam Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 No spinner other than Joe Root for second test! Gone with Josh Tongue for Moeen. RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 England need to get in the absolute bin today. Awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKRam Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Root totally under bowled himself when he was captain so he shouldn’t have a pop at Stokes now. He’s always under bowled . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I sorta feel like if England had batted first they'd have lost the 4 or 5 wickets for low scores. Fear,not confidence ruled the decision and you just know batting last will be a pig for England. Still, 4 days to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I think it’s a shame that every series involves two games in London where there’s no atmosphere or passion from the crowd. Edgbaston was electric and produced a cracking game as both teams thrived on the buzz. Lords and the Oval are full of stockbrokers who arrive late with a bottle of fizz to talk work. England struggle at Lords because it’s so flippin quiet! SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I'll no doubt jinx us but.. We've started really well and Crawley looks in very good knick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) Great start until Crawley engineers his own wicket by running down the pitch and getting stumped. Obviously learned nothing from Root gifting Lyon a wicket stumped in the last test. Edited June 29, 2023 by Carnero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe would be 50 if you added them all together They’ve done the hard work Australia have pushed all the field back we could easily score 5 singles an over without gifting our wickets away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Tibbs Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Fair play to the Aussies - they've set the traps and we've been suckered in. Throwing the game away again after battling so hard to get back in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
