*Official Third Test at Headingley* 25-29 August

[Arachnodouche]

This is why Pat Cummins is far and away the best bowler in the world today. He just never looks flat, regardless of what his batsmen have served up.

Didn't I say earlier , we are seeing repeat of 2014 series? ?

 

[duffer]

My avatar until Kohli scores an international century.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Delighted for Craig Overton really. Guy has taken poles at around 13 for the last two seasons and hardly anyone backs him to deliver. He's a quality bowler guys!

Seems a good bloke too. Not necessarily a charge to be levelled at all of our seamers...

 

[Manee]

Gross but true.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That was ****ing glowious from Hameed

 

[Shri]

wtf are we doing

why have we not turned to the guy who breathed fire at lords

 

[honestbharani]

plus alongside Ishant, he is the best bet to the lefties. But you know, Bumrah...

 

[Aritro]

I do enjoy this Pommy propensity for dressing up in costumes for the cricket. Adds a dash of colour and fun to proceedings.

 

[anil1405]

I know there was a tea break in between but stop giving Bumrah long spells ffs. Especially when you have four seamers.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Kohli's handling of Bumrah since his stress fracture has been atrocious. He overbowls him and treats him like a ****ing workhorse every series.

 

[honestbharani]

The workhorse is supposed to be Ishant but he gets injured. And he overbowls every fast bowler anyways ultimately. Does not seem to understand 4 over bursts are a thing for most bowlers around the world.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I'm getting Sanga vibes with Haseeb here.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Ishant chose a pretty bad time to get the yips. Wtf has he been bowling today?

It definitely started last Test, despite his experience allowing him to bowl well.

I mean this is what happens when you have a double digit score to defend. You try too much, too hard, and it all goes haywire.

Nah he definitely got better last test. But here, think the score and the expectation that he has to pick up a bag quickly seems to have gotten to him.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Obviously these guys partook of a tipple or two with Mr. Shastri over the last ten days. They look flat as piss on a hot day.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Siraj got a clean fade there. Who is his barber?

Yeah but my worry is it should not continue in this session. That short spell before tea was understandable. They have had time to calm down and work on their plans.
