The Cricket Thread (Part 2)

England stat padding their way.

Can’t think of a touring team in England that has been this bad before. It’s embarrassing to watch.

Pakistan look to be going the Windies way. Which is shocking considering that cricket is their major sport and there are 250m people there.

Pakistan look to be mounting a comeback. Or it might just be the England team slacking off and thinking of the nightclubs

Pathetic effort from Archer, Atkinson and Tounge today. Rocked up and expected them to just roll over.

Fair play to the young lad on debut, some massive hits.

Razaullah has hit as many sixes as Geoffrey Boycott did in his 108-Test career.

Simple. STOP with the barrage of bouncers!! Get in the nets and practice nailing 6 Yorkers in 6 deliveries! Missed one? Start from zero.

Loved Razaullah’s performance, so carefree and natural with the bat and the ball. Bloody hell he’s a big lad, he dwarves the Sky interviewers!

Tounge is usually excellent against the tail but they all lost the plot yesterday.

Yeah I was really surprised by that

They didn’t expect Pakistan to play for pride.

And that’s that.

England really win quite comfortably. But doubt this was a challenge. This pakistan team is poor.

Sometimes it’s what you need after a summer of upheaval.

Mind you only a 3 test series against SA and a random one off Test match against Australia in the winter.

@wyld.at.hrt , id want your opinion on the kookaburra ball.

How is that ball suitable for subcontinent conditions. Most if not all countries (apart from India ) have adopted that… And that’s led to the steady decline in their cricket.
