Who's making a hundred then?

Pakistan would love to have Mudassar Nazar in this side. wafg he was.

Last time I saw Shan bowl he was probably a similar pace, if not faster. But that was years ago and I don't even know the last time he bowled.

Holy moly, Duckett just left one!

Who isn't?

 

[BazBall21]

I fancy Duckett to do well

Sajid reminds me of an old stalwart club cricketer. The slight belly overhang, the saggy trousers, then rips one past the bat.

 

[BazBall21]

Bald too

Reminds me of an aristocrat from colonial times with that villainous mustache.

 

[Starfighter]

The washing powder plug from Gower might be the worst advertisement of anything ever.

 

[h_hurricane]

Zak Crawley has exactly the same batting average(32.77) in FC and tests, before this innings.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Do they have to come up with the puns themselves, or are they given a list?

 

[Starfighter]

Bad fielding already.

Only he won't sit there with a pint after telling you where you go wrong

They are given a list. All the cuts to the different advertisements are scheduled too , even the people drinking the tea wait for the scheduled time to drink a cuppa.

 

[Chin Music]

I'm sure I asked this last time too and have forgotten the answer.

But how come he's Noman on the scorecard and Naman on the back of his shirt?

Well now he's out man.

I guess that there is no completely accurate literal translation given it is from a very different alphabet (Urdu). Neither is necessarily wrong when written in Roman script.

 

[Starfighter]

This is getting brutal already.

 

[Chin Music]

England are obviously capable of c*cking this up, but I still think it is unlikely I was wrong with my concern that the pitch would just go dead, no matter how many days they play. No matter if England muck it up, it really doesn't look a clever selection by the Pakistani selectors.

 

[BazBall21]

***ual shot from Crawley. Use of the feet, right to the pitch of the ball and supple placement.
