applescruff14 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 India will probably bat the first session and set England 400 in the 4th innings, they could declare now, games done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even went to the extreme of getting in her car and driving up to where I was working, just a shame she wasn't convincing enough. It was a ploy to say to management that I was unreliable, must have had a terrible upbringing if that's how she turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

India may as well declare, their job with the bat is done. Taking 10 England wickets is the easy bit. If we can take three wickets in the first hour, they will rip through our batting order, positive things to come out these two tests is that we have twice had India on the ropes in their second innings, just a shame the reward is to go 1-0 down. If Bangladesh ?? can skittle us in a session I'm sure India ?? can. Bairstow reckons England can escape with a draw, don't think so some how, not with this team.

Well Cook was never going to abandon the habit of a lifetime and do something astonishing was he? It's going to be Cricket's equivalent of 'parking the bus'. It's not going to be pretty or effective and we'll be bowled out just after tea on the final day, going down defending rather than trying to win - a typical Cook captaincy display basically.

That's very good and true, those two wickets going today have cost us the match, if we could have got to the crease tomorrow morning with all 10 wickets intact we might have stood a chance. I can see a collapse to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be over before that, I think they will skittle us all in the afternoon session, I can see us seven down after this first session. Root has already been dropped on 9 so wickets are to follow and if Duckett fails in this innings which no doubt he will send him back to England, he reminds me of someone you would see on a building site. I see he's just gone for 0, bring someone else in for Friday's test. Get rid of him, embarrassment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said seven down at lunch, if England are all out for 187, my 217 run loss prediction will be right. Still need to score 45, a task which looks light years beyond us.

Drop Duckett and Ansari for the next test, send them back to England for what use they are. I thought England would collapse on day 5 but I don't think we deserve to be 1-0 down.

Just a good thing we're not Down Under this winter ❄️ but SA have already wrapped up the series down there with a chance of a whitewash so they can be beaten in their own backyard. We've got the Ashes and that's all that matters and if we successfully defend them I've got to do a Gary Lineker and go to work in my pants for a day although we have no chance of defending them and I certainly won't be working there then.

applescruff14 Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 It's good England have dropped that useless idiot Duckett and Ansari, a must win test but can't see it somehow. About time Cook got a decent innings otherwise he should go back to England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hameed is out, I'm not convinced about him, if anything we need two new openers altogether, Strauss and Trescothick was always the best opening pair in my time of watching cricket. About time Root got a century. Just noticed Gareth Batty is playing, he's going to get smashed round the park when he bowls, 2-0 down.

applescruff14 Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Cook has been dropped twice already, even when he was on 3, we will go nowhere all the time he's calling the shots, Australia will be 1-0 up in the Ashes roughly this time next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gong Farmer Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 I listen to BBC radio 4 LW on the way to work in the mornings where they have the fucking Cricket on. It consists of a couple of cunts exchanging a diatribe of shit platitudes and boring as fuck comments. Who the fuck makes a point of getting up at the time of the morning to listen to that load of utter wank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
