The England Cricket Thread

[Freddie1980]

Bairstow is able to put all his weight into his shots. The Aussies have no chance of stopping it.

Ha ha, poor old Pat Cummins probably wishes he never picked up a Cricket ball. At his rate he'll have to drop himself from the side!

 

[Trusty]

Cracking innings by Bairstow, and by England in general. Some great batting all round

Bairstow finally having a good test match

 

[Freddie1980]

I've lost count the number of time I've watched England play only to get to the end of the day and see at strong opening partnership was undermined by middle order collapse. So refreshing to see a scorecard where everyone in the English middle order has contributed with the bat.

[SoliD]

[Freddie1980]

Surely a declaration is coming in as soon as Bairstow gets his ton.

 

[SoliD]

cmon jonny finish it off.

 

[Trusty]

Surely a declaration is coming in as soon as Bairstow gets his ton.

Maybe try and get a 300 run lead, then declare

I reckon they're aiming for 300 ahead

 

[fez]

Yep, go for the innings victory.

 

[SoliD]

poor old jonny!

 

[SoliD]

Well an exceptional innings from pretty much every batsman.

 

[manic111]

That's very, very plumb

 

[adidan]

Unlucky.

 

[Freddie1980]

Damn watching England take apart of the Aussie's was like watching Flash Gordon fighting in Ming's palace.

 

[jaybee]

Here we go then... all 10 out by end of day please.
