Friendly reminder that Ben Stokes-Mitch Marsh comparisons were common place 12-18 months back.

Friendly reminder that Ben Stokes-Mitch Marsh comparisons were common place 12-18 months back.

But remember Mitch Marsh is chock-full of potential.

England in the second test vs BD: 408

England this innings: 485 and counting

Honestly it's been pretty poor cricket since lunch. Stokes is getting away with murder.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Great trolling this by Stokes.

 

[91Jmay]

500 + score is great effort. Indian fielding has been pony. Kohli is a good ground fielder but average in slips, shouldn't be in there.

 

[Shri]

Ashwin, save us with the bat.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Kohli is a good ground fielder but average in slips, shouldn't be in there.

There is a lot of Pietersen about him. Great ground fielder but crap catching. Great bat but a complete knob.

Wonder if Piers Morgan likes him?

 

[91Jmay]

Yeah he is very KP like. Player I've compared him a lot as a very good not great player in Tests.

 

[Howe_zat]

I have money on Stokes to top score, so can Moeen please get out?

Feeling nervy?

 

[harsh.ag]

Okay, so I get to hear we've been dropping catches again? How many and of whom, can anyone update?

 

[fredfertang]

Hey Howe this is Ansari's second test.

You said he inspired our One-Test Wonder XI

When are you eating a shoe

If it helps Jake you can get a chocolate clog from Thorntons

Stokes dropped 3 times and a run out missed also had a few that went in air for ages and dropped between fielders. Not like you picking the blokes who hurt you most or anything.

 

[Shri]

I ****ing hate the curator of this pitch.

 

[Stapel]

Feeling nervy?

I'ld hedge it to put a pound on Root to topscore right now.

I have barely seen any of India's bowling these two days

How rubbish have we been?

Ashwin ok but not that threatening. Jadeja average. Mishra crap. Yadav very good, Shami ok

At the end of this series, this innings will not be remembered for India's rubbish bowling, but for their rubbish fielding.

Bangladesh have been alright

Shami has been very good. Tough to score off. The others, average.
