***Official*** 4th Test @ The Oval, London - 2nd-6th September

[Arachnodouche]

Fire!

 

[Arachnodouche]

Its almost as if chasing 350+ on the final day of a test match is tough...

But it's such a placid pitch...

 

[GIMH]

bleurgh

 

[OverratedSanity]

Wait how does Bumrah only have 100 wickets

Only debuted in 2017-18

 

[cnerd123]

this is awesome

Still stand by this?

yes

Played a lot of pyjama stuff before a relatively recent test debut. I think it feels like he's been around longer cos he's been on TV longer.

Plus injuries and always fielding at least two spinners in home games.

This is really weak @sledger

 

[GIMH]

Right, two best bats at the crease. See us home bois

 

[Flem274*]

Ashwin spewing to see this I reckon.

Ashwin spewing to see this I reckon.

I'm glad

I posted before the innings started that it's the sort of chase where you can be 100 without loss and still get nowhere near it, and this is why. It's still tough for new batsman.

On TMS Vaughan was implying that England might benefit if Hameed got out because he was holding back the run rate.

It turns out there is a worse alternative than 'player staying in but scoring slowly'.

 

[Flem274*]

Scares the **** out of me seeing these right hand ***** expose off stump to Jadeja.

Just kick him.

Well you're the authority on weakness around here so I'll have to defer to you on that one

 

[Pothas]

He's a proper talent. I've been on the Pope train since his South African tour.

Yeah he is quite clearly better than the other guys. His struggles have pretty much been normal ones for a young players, feels very different to Sibley or whoever.

 

[Aritro]

Root will have to carry that soulless New Balance bat the whole way through now

 

[Aritro]

This is a fast bowling masterclass from Bumrah, **** me

Question is, is there a worse alternative to Michael Vaughan?

 

[Aritro]

Lol, he talks so much **** it's unreal. He's a ****ing divvy. Albeit one who improves notably when he commentates in Australia where he doesn't feel like he's in his own lounge room holding court.

 

[Flem274*]

Root often looks like a dad who has just discovered his kids drawing on the wall with crayon.

 

[Cubiscus]

Classic collapse yet again but you have to applaud some great fast bowling
