The England Cricket Thread

[Kenai]

Archer and Stokes, maximum confidence, the game is essentially won

 

[Skynet5]

Should have sent Leach in to block for a couple of hours.

I though that.

 

[Kelt]

They should call up Boycott.

He'd show these no-brainers how to stay at the wicket.

 

[adidan]

This is starting to get tight enough to start using metaphors.

 

[Cob]

Is Archer wearing a stab-vest?

 

[Skynet5]

Oh dear archer. Not needed

 

[Cob]

Always going to happen.

Still, Broad and Leach can hold the fort.

 

[adidan]

Archer, no! No, no, no.

Somebody get this team some brains. Hell, share one between them.

 

[Semple]

Falling apart now. It was a long shot.

 

[el_dazza]

Game, set and Ashes.

 

[adidan]

There isn't an emoticon suitable...

 

[Locky]

Congratulations to Australia on retaining the Ashes...

Won't be the 5-0 but 4-0 is on...

 

[adidan]

Stokes should just slog now

 

[davejh666]

This ain't over yet guys......

 

[adidan]

48 needed...

 

[davejh666]

46...

 

[el_dazza]

40, Stokes not taking this lying down.

 

[davejh666]

What a shot. 40 now

 

[Psycho Ned]

Win or lose here this has been an epic innings from Stokes.

 

[Cob]

Glad I've no wine in the house or else I'd be on my third bottle by now.
