Definitely need to tune in right at the hour tomorrow haha. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Git Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Only hope we have with Bairstow, is that he gets injured, because his place seems sacrosanct. Unfortunately the Ashes will be history anyway, so it'll ultimately make no difference. JakeDCFC and Henrycav81 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he should be keeping is a different matter. SKRam and NottsRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lest we forget…. Last year that innings against NZ will live long in my memory. Not for some clearly! I think Aussies are missing a trick here, not that they’re doing too badly but surely time for their spinner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Aussies are missing a trick here, not that they’re doing too badly but surely time for their spinner I’ve not got a problem with him playing as a batsman only but he as a right bag on if he’s not keeping, it’s not his fault but the selectors or whoever picks the team now should say your a batsman only. I never thought he was a test standard keeper before he broke his leg but he’s not playing like a county standard keeper presently. The catching as been the difference between the two sides in this series and the difference between the two keepers as been huge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 This is no fun. Where's the bazball gone? Need to swing for the boundary more and get the game moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows that and is hurting. We’ve become a sub standard fielding side this series which is alarming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Ali out now. "oh I think this is a trap. I know, I'm gonna walk right into it because this is the way." Before the series I thought england would lose 3-1, maybe 2-1 but yes, the 5-nil is looking on the cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
