*Official* Fifth Test (The Oval, London) 27-31 July

Actually, you'd think the fact that everyone in Bay 13 was wearing army helmets, and they were holding one person upside down in a crouching position would be a bit of a giveaway.

If the players get hit, they can only blame themselves.
Think Tufnell was their usual target and he could barely pick a ball at the best of times

to make Bazball work you probably have to replace at least 2 bowlers every test with fresh bowlers given how few overs they bat and how short a breather the bowlers get

And that innings broke the record for most deliveries faced without a single boundary hit.

De Villiers must've had ulcers afterwards not being able to reverse sweep at least one of them to the fence.

This is getting ridiculous. England need to be fined, and their captain banned, every time they try to change the ball because it isn't swinging for them

It's blatant cheating afaic. "Spirit of cricket" my dick

Any comments on Australia doing the same, repeatedly, throughout the series?

Has ball quality lessened in recent years? they seem to be changed/requested to change more than a tennis match of late.
