That is pathetic fielding.

By:
Sunday 3rd team stuff.
|
|
By:
Can you believe where mid on and mid off are.
|
|
By:
Or long in this case!!!
|
|
By:
It's a terribly flat pitch in their defence Swaddle
|
|
By:
Have really been impressed with Wood. He's one who can hold his head up imo.
|

SmithYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

We’re sh!t under this regime, the media havent called Root or Silverwoods positions into question either and this is without doubt the worst year/18 month period in our cricketing history, ever since Root was made captain and Silverwood was hired its slowly turned into a train wreck
Malan bowling is pathetic Stokes bowling bouncers only Leach bowling with deep mid off and mid ons Its being on purpose I think sometimes its that bad |
|
By:
When theyre drs for that I think we can safely say weve mentally gone
 |

We have been very poor for a good few years now you only have to look at the top 6 batting line up and the only position nailed down is Root as all the other positions for the last few years have been chopping and changing on a regular basis as we cannot find any test level quality batsmen to nail down a position and if you look at the batting averages bar Root of the top 6 then they are woefully inadequate set against the benchmark of 40 for a good test level batsmen,the future doesn't look great.

By:
until more value is put back in to the county championship we aren't going to produce quality long form batsmen or indeed quality spinners barring extreme talents...
whether we want to do that of course is a debate in itself |

Get rid of the 100. A sad creation and stick with the blast only. Knock the single day comp in the head too,
If they would take more championship games around the counties they would get far more watching it. Old Trafford would not like it in Lancashire, but sod em. Blackpool, Southport, Liverpool, Colwyn bay always filled and would do so again. Lancaster, Fleetwood and a few others are capable hosts too. As for this Test match, Aussie at 6/4 now is a great bet. |

Out grounds definitely could be made more use of though clubs are usually under pressure from members..
Uxbridge used to get great crowds for Championship games but a lot of the Middx members hated it, whether the same demand would exist now is questionable.. I think we still have to have a credible 50 over or similar while there is an ICC World Cup...that format has in itself been marginalised recently...just no room to have two domestic ulta short form comps unless we want to bin long form entirely ..the hard won validity of the domestic 20/20 has suffered as a result of accommodating the hundred as well.. |

By:
What we saying
150 ? Be nice to bat the day and avoid the whitewash |
|
By:
as many as that sonts' ?
 |
|
By:
radar doesn't look too bad at the minute...forecast still pretty appalling though..
|
|
By:
Even we can manage that
The rain is our hope though |
|
By:
Not to bad we got 22 for the first wicket
 Aussies look like taking a wicket with every ball |
|
By:
Hameed cashing on his good fortune by going on to make 6..
|
|
By:
Hameed wont be playing another test after this series
|
|
By:
at least they are giving the lads a chance...Crawley out off a nb and dropped in making 7*...Hameed given two goes for 6..
|
|
By:
shares in Rory Burns getting a bit of a bounce back...
|
|
By:
Once one of those are gone their almost into the tail
|
|
By:
Malan not looked great so far...
didn't like the Crawley dismissal much, firm footed big drive against a newish ball doing a bit... |
|
By:
Oh dear lord that is bad from Root
 |
|
By:
the wheels not so much off..as spotted in the harbour...
|
|
By:
We’re gonna need a miracle to avoid the whitewash
|
|
By:
forecast good for Hobart apparently as well
|
|
By:
We seem to go nowhere and then they just give them their wicket after 30 odd balls
Boland looks like a prime Brett Lee against our lot |
|
By:
all 3 dismissals pretty average by any standards...bowling has been decent but not as good as we continue to make it look..
|
|
By:
why did root play that? Playing for draw and goes after those? Just complete madness.
|
|
By:
“No runs scored for 48 balls”
 |
|
By:
Are they holding the correct end of the bat?
So they tried playing for the ashes Tried playing for pride Have they tried playing for their air fare home yet? Useless f00kin c0 nts |
|
By:
Getting roughed up by a mid pace Green now
 |
|
By:
reminds of games against the windies in the 80's...like watching two different pitches depending on who was bowling...
|
|
By:
This is pitiful
Absolutely disgraceful this |
|
By:
one for the skipper having the leg slip..
|
|
By:
Dont get ahead of yourselves Aussies
This is a beyond awful England side Its so bad its just funny at this point now |
|
By:
Wonder how many will take BT sport for the second month?
Think they won’t bother contesting for the next coverage contract |
|
By:
yep, difficult to believe many have sat through the night in this series...
