[Flem274*]

Would prefer 231 and out.

Woakes just means I'm sad. Long-standing joke about how he always likes look you've just told him his mother died in posed photos.

Ah ok, that makes more sense. I thought it could have something to do with my Woakes fanboi-ism and his less-than-stellar Test debut, as a somewhat tangential play-the-poster-not-the-post response to my 'tasting' comment.

Either way, obscure reference.

 

[Mike5181]

That was a great shot

 

[straw man]

Sodhi's test batting average back up where it belongs: above Taylor's.

 

[Flem274*]

Sodhi Can Bat

 

[hendrix]

Definite reverse there now.

 

[Dan]

A score of 186* today would give Taylor a test average of 45. Or 231 and out.

611* gets him an average of 50, ftr.

Nah I like Woakes almost as much as you; I wasn't having a dig.

It's more of an old CricSim gag; once upon a time if you typed in :woakes: on there you'd get a big picture of him looking sad with a "WOAKES " caption, but it made a fair few appearances here back in the day as well.

 

[straw man]

Sodhi Can Bat

Looking forward to his first test century so that commentators can remind us every time he comes in that he has a test century

 

[BeeGee]

Sodhi looks like a better batsman than Southee.

 

[_Ed_]

Sodhi dominating this partnership.

 

[Prince EWS]

Sodhi looks like a better batsman than Southee Redmond.

Fixed.

 

[Days of Grace]

I want 600. Sodhi should also be batting in front of Southee.

 

[Flem274*]

I want a Taylor triple ton, but unless he speeds up and the tail bat well that won't happen either.

 

[Days of Grace]

Happy enough with an unbeaten double.

Declare at drinks, 3rd session.

 

[Maximas]

just do a Ganguly and bat into day 3

 

[_Ed_]

Taylor upping the ante now? Consecutive boundaries.

 

[Maximas]

Taylor upping the ante now? Consecutive boundaries.

just putting away trash bowling really, hard to tell what his plans are

 

[Mike5181]

Gabriel really doesn't learn

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, look. I just don't know if short and wide to a bloke on 170 odd not out on a flat deck and a short boundary is probably the plan I'd be running with. but then again I've not played international cricket.
