Anag Ram Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Amazing. I hadn’t intended to watch it all but couldn’t take my eyes off it. Incredible entertainment Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 BTW that rule that says the ball is not dead when someone is bowled off a free hit is daft. Fair enough when they hit it to a fielder and get caught but the bowler should be rewarded for hitting the stumps in not letting the free ball get hit Carnero, Comrade 86 and AndyinLiverpool 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By hitting the stumps the bowler has done all he can possibly do for a free hit delivery, the ball should be dead at that point. I assumed it was even when the batsmen were running... it's just common sense. Hopefully this incident will make them amend the rule.

I remember one ball from Joffra Archer bowling a guy then going for six over the keeper. Imagine if that had been a ‘free hit’? Carnero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyinLiverpool Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 Shocking bowling by England then yet more slow scoring (by Malan again). Got what they deserved. Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though nagging at the back of my mind is the possibility that Sri Lanka slowing down might have quite a lot to do with the conditions. I hope not.

Van der MoodHoover Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 England have been top notch in the death overs of this tournament. I think more of the credit goes to the bowlers for pressurising the batsmen into losing their way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Excellent stuff from England after a poor start. We have a nice blend of bowlers. Shame about Malan. Will we see whirlwind Salt? Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
