*Official Third Test at Headingley* 25-29 August

White Ball

State 12th Man
I've got high hopes for Robinson. Gets nice bounce and carry even when he doesn't manage to hit the seam. So long as he stays accurate he'll go far.
The tweeter has bounced back well from his debut, still think it’s disappointing he’s allowed back in the side but in terms of Cricket he’s done well

I've yet to see him bowl a bad spell. FC record suggests it really doesn't happen much at all.

I didn't see it myself, but someone was talking about Pollock doing some analysis on his left arm in his action that suggested he might pick up some injuries. Does anyone know the details?

Are you Fannie de Villiers?
Yep saw it. Ban him for a year I say.
Well, let's assume we are talking about an Indian player, may be you'll be a little less defensive then:partytime!

I am not saying I saw that a 100%, but something looked off on a couple of occasions, so just wanted to confirm with folks who are watching here. No harm in asking right? Or is it against he forum rules or something?

He took 7/101 on debut?
right but he had to read out an apology written for him about his off field conduct, whether he should be playing or not is debatable but have to appreciate his strength of character to bounce back from a first day in International Cricket like that

Maybe others feel differently but I thought they were more incredibly embarrassing than anything else. Type of thing a 12 year old would say.

Not in the same league as Overton's comments.
This, the Overton stuff is worse.

The apology was about the same level though.

That was Overton's best over so far, no rewards though.
Nothing THAT bad honestly. From memory it was the classic 18-19 year old "women don't deserve rights lol." type of tweets you see alot from people that age in the social media era (i'm guilty of this aswell.) Australia u19 team made some similiarly stupid insta post's last year. Honestly think morgan and bmac making fun of indian fans that came out just after it was way worse but it just kind of slipped under the radar

I haven’t seen overtons comments how come he was not investigated as well? Is there a link?
