*Official* First Test (Edgbaston, Birmingham) 16–20 June

[TheJediBrah]

What would your plan be to Khawaja, re: the opinions of various famous people?

I would yell, "look, Cardio!" and he'll scare himself out

 

[TheJediBrah]

If Head somehow hacks his way to a decent score jumping and gloving every second ball I will give up on cricket

Nearly there again. He’s riding his luck a bit. Matter of time I think for a miss hit

 

[CartyDurham]

Really can’t argue with this level of alphaness

I would.

Head and Labuschagne are both hacks

If there's someone up there in the clouds watching down he/she/they have a lot to answer to for letting them be ranked where they are

 

[halba]

head eventually going to miscue

TJB's worst nightmare would be Wagner bowling to Head for an entire session

Stoppable force meets movable object

This is how he plays

All of a sudden starts middling everything and smacks it everywhere

**** me I would fancy myself against either of them

Bowling short to Uzi is a plan

A dumb one

ok when do you think that's going to start happening?

 

[CartyDurham]

No where near his gloves . Wasted that review

he didn’t look comfortable at all though with that short ball

117 for 3

 

[GIMH]

Pretty poor review

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Optimistic review

 

[CartyDurham]

Lot of chat and laughing going on. Knawaja enjoying it

and a huge six by head. This is more like it. A bit of positivity

im an England fan but that’s good play by both these post lunch

 

[TheJediBrah]

This is the worst 37 I've ever seen so far

It’s weird as I can’t recall him having a problem with the short ball before the last test

His issue used to be playing with a open face and nicking off

He rides his luck but his positivity has at least made Stokes think a bit. England were allowed to bowl without anything happening in the first session. Not now.

Wagner had him trouble a lot with it IIRC. Though that might have been a Wagner thing.

That’s a beautiful shot
