Put in a leg gully to Broad

Hahahaha Cummins didn't change the field so Smith just over-ruled him and did it anyway

Daily reminder that Head (c) > Cummins (c)

wtf that is clearly not what happened

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Would it be such a bad idea to bring back Head ?
He would be turning it away from the left handers

spin is too dangerous with stokes rn

Spoiler: Durham T20 score

bears 37 for 2

there are three on this thread

 

[Uppercut]

I mean 79 to get with 4 wickets left and a set batsman is pretty 50-50. It just feels like a lot because of how they’re playing.

 

[Saket1209]

Cummins is an absolute thrash

They should have started the session with him when they had more runs to play with. It'd possibly be too risky now but it was a missed trick.

Australia seem to forget that Broad is vulnerable to the yorker after a bouncer.

 

[subshakerz]

Is Cummins really captain out there or Smith?

It’s okay to bowl Green

It’s not okay to tell him to bowl bouncers every ball

 

[CartyDurham]

.

beautifully chested for one by broad

100 partnership , brilliant stuff. Broads 11 was one of the most textbook innings you could see

privileged

 

[Spark]

Have to go around the wicket here. Don't let him access the short boundary

A statement has come through from the Australia team: "Australian management has requested the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) investigate several incidents involving spectators in the members area during lunch on day five of the Lord's Test. It is alleged players and staff from the Australian team were verbally abused, with some being physically contacted, as they made their way to lunch through the members area."

To be fair, Broad is also vulnerable to the bouncer after the bouncer.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Take the ****ing singles. You’ve still got Robinson who can hold a bat.

Yup this is what I think too. The targets too far away to refuse the easy singles.

Like Faf as a capt in ipl

 

[Burgey]

Yup this is what I think too. The targets too far away to refuse the easy singles.

Honestly he can get them in about six overs the way he’s going

 

[Uppercut]

Yup this is what I think too. The targets too far away to refuse the easy singles.

Broad looks like getting out every ball though.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

England should forfeit, that's reprehensible
