Max Power Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 To be honest, and I hate to say this, but that was proper batting from Travis Head. Attacking weakness in the bloke who the opposition are banking on to bowl long, tight spells. It's basically fucked us for the whole series because when the sun comes out, we'll shit the bed and play extra seamers instead of a spin option and they'll get 560-3. Well batted Head, you bastard.

Paid Members Nexus Posted December 28, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 28, 2021  Is the reason we're so shit because we've spent so much time focusing on the one day side of the game, or are we just shit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like wrestling focusing on gimmick matches so much they forget how to do a proper match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted December 28, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted December 28, 2021 We get some David Gower back on commentary and this happens. Silverwood and Root out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Hamptons Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Mark Wood got 6-37, fantastic bowling from him.. Chance England could win this... Great start to the batting but Green is starting to get at us.  Questions will be asked about what we can do.. We're shit at test cricket, everyone is in a hurry to score runs. What's the solution? Less white balls games seems the most obvious. Roots not be the best captain ( his total runs have been good in this year and last) but who could replace him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured we had over two days to score another 200 runs with 9 wickets left, how hard could it be? To steal a joke from (I think) Drop The Dead Donkey, there's probably an entire generation that think "England batting collapse" is a single word.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 8, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 8, 2022 I reckon that might almost have been YJB's best test match knock - just after the one in the Ashes. He's suddenly looking like the test player we always hoped he would be. Brilliant innings, and Ben Foakes looked really good too. Good support work from the Three Oakes.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted March 12, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted March 12, 2022 It's a day-night test, that's why they're calling it that in this instance. Supper is more fitting though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamura Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) In bad news for Hoylandswaine haters (there's a few on here I know) the fuckers have only gone and signed Pakistan test/ODI/T20 bowler Junaid Khan. He did get comprehensively upstaged by another bowler from Pakistan in one of the lower divisions, a 21-year-old who took 10/16 (9 of them were wides) playing in his first match in England.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 6, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted May 6, 2022 Ben Stokes chose violence. He also missed out on six sixes in an over by hitting the last ball of one for four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 So, this is fun… I left my job as Head of Comms for Frank Warren in December for a new job in the betting industry. But, after a very brief time, I realised that world wasn’t for me… so, on June 13 I take over as Head of Comms and Media at The Oval. Pretty big bucket list job for me. Looking forward to getting stuck into the Surrey CCC goings on, as well as the England internationals. Should be great 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
