The Hundred

[MW1304]

Get Simpson back in the England team, Christ.

The Originals have the collective yips here. Atmosphere has got to them massively.

 

[MW1304]

Didn't think we'd see 200, but there it is. Pretty entertaining tbf.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Carlos Brathwaite's 2 and a half overs went for 35

Steven Finn's 2 and a half overs went for 51! (not 51 factorial...might as well be)

 

[Jack1]

That was a nice direct hit by Mack.

 

[Jack1]

Squeeze is on

 

[Jack1]

This is game over. Brave should probably just go for it, doesn’t matter if you lose by 1 run or 200 - especially in a final …but not a good look for the competition if they get rolled for under 30 in the final

 

[_00_deathscar]

So interest. Much fascination.

 

[Howe_zat]

31/7 in a final is suboptimal

 

[honestbharani]

IPL lucked out with a last ball thriller in the very first final.

 

[grecian]

Yeah hugely disappointing after a very successful tournament for the Women's game.

 

[grecian]

Kp or Vaughan, it's a tough choice, think I'll have to go for Vaughan. as he's minorly less prickishness and Isa is always easy on the eye.

 

[Howe_zat]

Nasser apperently looking at Liam Livingstone's 'technique' in this tournament. I'll be impressed if he can make 'belts it really really hard' last a whole section

It's a tough shout.

I think it ultimately boils down to whether one prefers one's prickishness bitter and grudging or egotistical and brash.

Have gone with the former.

Well the Ravster is on the Beeb, so I have to slavishly follow.

Stirling is fun. He looks more irish as the years roll on, if that's not racist.

KP at least comes with what looks like an attempt to enjoy the cricket. His dickishness doesn't spew forth with every sentence spoken.

Problem is there's so many sentences....

Pietersen is definitely more enthusiastic than Mick, yeah.

I put this down to his ability to relate everything he talks about back to himself somehow and, as has been oft noted, he's a massive enthusiast when it comes to Kevin Pietersen.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Stirling looking in good touch here. Those last two cuts are the shots of a bloke in form.

Seems to be expanding as the season progresses though. I mean, he's always been on more than nodding terms with the pies, but it looks like an acquaintance that's blossomed into a full on affair.

KP: "It's out of the ground!!" - ball barely makes it over the rope and bounces on grass

It's possible the shirt sponsors all being crisps sends the wrong message to its intended young audience, but I like to think it's in keeping with the physique of the average short form specialist.
