I would think if we had all 4 days we may get a result, but Monday
looks pretty bad to me, can't see any other result that a draw to be honest. |
|
By:
 lets hope they bat quickly. 400 runs today would be nice. |
|
By:
At last...
|
|
By:
agreed

nice to see my pep talk has inspired cook.

Lazy running

A couple of made up bets....
Gooch has 8900 runs. Who will break his record first? KP. 7499. 6/4 Cook 7364 i/r. 5/6 Neither by end 2014 9/2 Anderson to break Bothams record of 383, 305 presently... Yes... 4/7 No.... 6/4 |

By:
wicket good for draw ironically as it makes chance of follow on less likely ;-)
Mon/Tuesday weather 'orrible. Be amazed if there's a result - would take something similar to first test in terms of a collapse. |

I am not one for jumping on a bandwagon, but not convinced by compton. Wuld it be ridiculously leftfield for Trott to open? Bell first drop, KP, Root then Bairstow.

You are always talking up the draw nigel. I think about a quarter of tests end up as draws,
|
|
By:
Nonsense I'm often suggesting to lay it. Draw are pretty unlikely in test cricket now EXCEPT when there's plenty of rain as there is here.
|
|
By:
It's actually about 1/10 by the way
|
|
By:
I think 1.58 is far too short.
I havent catalogued all your posts, but from memory you seem to be always banging on about the pro draw line. |

Will be interesting to see Bracewell bowl..
|
|
By:
also only light showers with sunshine are expected on monday afternoon.
|
|
By:
very unlikely to move trott up to open.....root or maybe chopra for the ashes
|
|
By:
Ermmmm.. well they will likely be playing (or not playing) on tuesday.
|
|
By:
Can see Root moving up..
|
|
By:
how do you see that scenario panning out?
I'm thinking : Day 2 - ENG 270/6 Day 3 - ENG AO 375 NZ 200/5 Day 4 - NZ AO 250 ENG 120/2 Day 5 - rain |
|
By:
Eng 400/5d, lunch tomorrow
nz 240 ao, lunch monday , nz 200 ao, england 41/2 lunch tuesday |
|
By:
quite possible. I've already taken some ENG here at 3.1
|
|
By:
i think england will have to declare, all depends on whether cook wants to go for the win! he should, a 2-0 series sets us up perfectly for the ashes.
|
|
By:
he is conservative, but he is so unpredictable too. going to be loads of cloud monday and tuesday (if it gets there
 ), the weather interestingly looks a little better on tuesday, sunshine and showers. could see very low scoring second innings and a lot of wickets on those last two days!heres hoping! |
|
By:
well I agree at 3 it's worth a punt - but only with green
|
|
By:
steview, check sunday's weather, it was supposed to be sunny and dry the whole day, now moderate risk of isolated light rain shower.

|
By:
backed the draw here, going to take the dog a walk till tuesday lunch, an see where we is then .
|
|
By:
so glad he's gone!
|
|
By:
Ridic shot.
