*Official* T20 and ODI matches

[Jacknife]

He's the worst ODI new-ball bowler I've seen in a long time.

At the death he's great. With the new ball he doesn't swing it and he doesn't bowl yorkers!

Like he said before, overreaction imo.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Cut out the bloody short stuff on this damp squid of a pitch.

?

 

[Jacknife]

Good stuff from Jimmy.

Now that's how to bowl a short ball if your going to do on, straight at the head and that's exactly how not to bowl one, where it comes at chest level is pointless.

 

[Cevno]

I think it's time for another 15 pages of hysterical yelping about UDRS where we all know that Hot Spot often doesn't pick up thin edges, and use this to de construct our opponent's arguments that we made up and gave them in order to argue with.

Firstly i don't get clearly what you are exactly trying to say?

And Secondly have always said neither Snicko and Hotspot are fully accurate and just need to be used as guiding tools in absolute clear cases. Need to define what we need technology for and what not for as Simon Taufel put it,not just blindly use it for everything and with inconsistencies.

Neither do i disagree with what i can gather you are trying to say.

 

[Cevno]

Massive Shot!!!!

 

[nsniks]

England are getting carried away with their short stuff

 

[Neil Pickup]

That's been pulled 20 rows back off the front foot. Evolution.

What a beautiful sunset.

Not having a go at you at all. Just musing on what a limitation on the technology we're all aware of means for "the UDRS debate" - that is, nothing.

Dernbach has strange shaped ears. Mildly weird me out.

 

[Jacknife]

Just like the last pitch anything remotely short is sitting up begging to be hit.

 

[Cevno]

Bopara bowling ahead of Patel and Swann?

 

[Howe_zat]

Less than 5 an over since Patel went, given the length of the game that's pretty tight.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Yeah, it's very much a full-length kinda pitch with the occasional surprise short one to keep the batsmen honest.

Might be even worth letting Bell have an over or two.

 

[Howe_zat]

Bopara bowling ahead of Patel and Swann?

Think it's a good move to try him out on this wicket. Gives it a full, skiddy sort of length and can bring it back in to the batsman. I doubt Patel will get much of a bowl from what I've seen so far.

 

[Cevno]

Just about in.

Poor throw.

 

[Jacknife]

Poor throw, better one and he was gone and by a fair bit.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Just about in.

Poor throw.

Awful throw.

Was about to comment it as a good over until that rank full toss.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Ah well time to switch over and see the Welsh get slaughtered at Wembley.

bet it rains here and ends the game.

 

[Jacknife]

How many more times do you have to be dispatched when you bowl, even the sightliest bit short before you learn, full pitch deliveries look so threatening so why not just stick to those.

It usually spins a bit down at Hampshire.
