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

jimmy should shut the **** up and figure out how to take a wicket here

 

[Spikey]

With the 50 on the board, it's now....

 

[cnerd123]

Shammiiiiiiii. Belted that like he did his ex-wife.

imagine being part of the bowling attack against whom Shami scores the only two FC 50s of his entire career. Anderson and Moeen don't have to imagine, they were there.

flintoff-yuvraj 2007

anderson-shami 2021

do these guys never learn

 

[Arachnodouche]

Almost better than a win, this.

 

[Burner]

Anderson keep riling them up. Meanwhile Shami and Bumrah are going "how many times must we teach you this lesson, old man?"

 

[Shri]

The man is close to 40 years old, he must have been scared for his life when Bumrah was bowling those nasty bouncers. Bumrah was able to get him out with sharp yorkers in previous occasions, those bouncers were not necessary.

after day 2, he made it a point in an interview to let everyone know that england batted down to 11 tbf

Thankfully this is just about funny enough to take the edge off the feelings of shame and despair.

 

[BoyBrumby]

England will doddle this imo.

This post aged very badly very quickly.

 

[cnerd123]

how often do two players in the same team achieve their career highest scores in the same innings? Debutants aside naturally. Can't be common.

Largest 9th wicket partnership since Dhoni and Bhuvi added 140 vs Australia in Chennai in 2013 (the game where MSD made 224)

Shami has joined the chatroom.

Declare

 

[cnerd123]

Shami (64) now has more runs than Kohli (62) this series.

Bumrah (56) not too far behind.

 

[Shri]

shami has more runs in this series than kohli now

 

[cnerd123]

260 in 2 sessions. Perfect. Declare and let's bowl 'em out.

 

[Shri]

shami strike rate 77

 

[Burgey]

Shami has more runs this series than Kohli

has anyone mentioned that?

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Credit to India, but pitiful by England. Root should be barred from the Man of the Match award for that.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Hats off to Shami and Bumrah. Effectively taken an English win off the table.

Root and his bowlers completely lost the plot.

What a lovely session. Thank you Jimmy.
