*Official* Opening Match- England v New Zealand- October 5th, Ahmedabad

[SillyCowCorner1]

In comes England's saviour, Chris Woakes.

 

[Moss]

Golden from Phillips, didn't expect Root to succumb to pressure like that

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Probably the best fielder in the world and fastest between the wickets, dynamic batsman, was a keeper, and a golden arm with the ball. He can do everything.

there will be swing under lights if pitch plays like it does in the ipl

if nz do not lose early wickets they will win without breaking a sweat

 

[GIMH]

**** you’re a weak, pathetic ****. Why are you so obsessed with me? I’m not talking to you dickhead

You trolled 'England fans', got called out for it, and seems you don't like it

You stink these threads out. You did it all the way through the T20 WC too. When you're in a thread, you're talking to everyone who reads it. So yeah I'll comment about your obnoxious behaviours because it's tiresome

he didn't succumb to pressure he succumbed to glenn f***ing phillips

 

[RightArmMystery]

Pretty impressive that, nutmegged playing the reverse. After a pretty good start, boy have we bottled the opportunity to get a big score here, some truly awful shots.

 

[Shri]

root is no pant

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

100 was there for the taking, Rooty. But your brain was not in it.

NZ bat down to like, 12 or something.

Not looking good for England.

Exactly reverse sweep every over doesn't work. It is meant to be a surprise shot.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

obsessed with scoops and reverses

I blame test cricket for that.

how very unprecedented

 

[slippy888]

why is kane not playing today guys

 

[Skyliner]

Keep GP on now that he can smell blood in the water.

 

[sledger]

why is kane not playing today guys

I think a more pressing question is whether he is as good as messi

 

[Shri]

i don't see eng getting past conway or mitchell unless there are early wickets in the chase

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

I blame test cricket for that.

Agreed, Root needs to keep his funky shots in Test cricket where they belong. This is a very serious white ball tournament and he should respect the tradition.
