*Official* Second Test at Lord's - Aug 12-16 2021

[Daemon]

This is where Ashwin would be useful

Get Jaddu on for a change of pace IMO

Will just get hit over his head

 

[Shri]

i thought bumrah vs smith was ugly to watch but burns is like hold my beer

 

[wpdavid]

Uhhh did this turn into a T20 game? Five boundries in six balls???

It's the way Burns plays, don't you know.

 

[Daemon]

Burns' technique reminds me of praying mantis

 

[cnerd123]

I hope Moeen and Haseeb are discussing beard grooming techniques. Haseeb could use some advice.

 

[Aritro]

There's some pretty absorbing cricket happening at Sabina Park just FYI lads. Pitch is doing a lot more than the one at Lord's. I'll be staying on that one I reckon.

 

[honestbharani]

Ball turning miles and we dropped the best spinner in the world. Classic Koach RTG.

You soak it up good! ?


I see Hameed was out first ball ?

 

[silentstriker]

Ugh....

Jadeja needs to pull his weight here too. For all the hyped balance he gives the team, it's about time he comes good abroad on a helpful pitch.

Sounds like he'll be a handful in the 4th innings. And your quicks are more than capable of bowling England out in this innings.

He is but Shami has been a liability so far and I just do not see the point of having to play Shami in England or New Zealand. In India, yes, absolutely but overseas and esp. in NZ and England, he is just way too blow hot blow cold.

 

[Daemon]

This is quickly becoming Root's best year if it hasn't already.

 

[silentstriker]

Definitely not out there.

 

[Prince EWS]

Can't imagine a partnership more disheatening for India than Burns-Root.

 

[silentstriker]

Wow, I'm definitely wrong.

 

[wpdavid]

Bugger. We needed these two to see out the last 20 minutes. Horrible time to come out and bat now.

 

[cnerd123]

looked high live. obviously the umpire had a better view of it. one of those that looks more plumb at eye level than it does from the broadcast camera. good decision.

Curran + Robinson would destroy my very soul

Well this was an annoying jinx one delivery later.
