    Awesome stuff Gus, look at dem all-round figures

    Joe Root is number one

    Wherever you rank him alongside other sportspeople (impossible thing to answer tbh), he's the best bat we've produced in the lifetime of basically anyone on this forum and I don't think he'll be beaten within mine.

    Man I'm just so grateful to be experiencing the entirety of Root's career, hope he goes on for a while yet. Also, getting Mitchell Johnson vibes from Atkinson's batting. Stays still and hits the ball so cleanly. Feel like Johnson underperformed a little relative to his talent, but a similar...

    People were worried about the sweep, then that happens.

    Quietly miraculous that there's been no rain in Manchester all day. Been tipping it down my way.

    All-time bad performance from the Brit in this omnium. Fell off towards the end of the scratch race, then some bizarre tactics in the tempo. Even a complete novice like me could tell that doing nothing for 17 laps then going off on your own for no reward in the last 8 was just kinda stupid.

    Denise Lewis is leaving the BBC coverage! Tragedy.

    The US dominance is pretty boring. Thank god for Tebogo.

    How is every American having a storming finish? Must be juicing them up the wazoo.

    ***Official 2024 Olympics Thread***

    Those two results happened within seconds. That's something I love about the Olympics, that illusion of momentum and things building on top of each other, even in entirely unrelated sports. It's kind of nonsense, but beautiful nonsense.

    It's not like we win every home series comfortably either. Except that one freak summer. Just enjoy the team playing well ffs.

    That was superb drama! This beats road cycling any day.

    Such a joke that Shamar is at 11 haha, he's a far cleaner striker of the ball than any of 8 to 10. No stopping that though, what an over. When Wood comes off he's as thrilling a bowler as we've ever had. Love how we're using him these days.

    *Official* West Indies Tour of England, JULY 9th to 25th, 2024-- 3 TEST MATCHES

    It was unlikely of course, but in the context of the match itself, where the pitch didn't really change much until we got to bowling on the fourth evening, they were in touch. Most of the benefit for us was from batting first, which of course they made us do, but nonetheless we didn't beat their...

    Won easily as of the last hour though. What counts is the play by play, which was incredibly close throughout. Classic hindsight stuff.

    Did you even watch though? This was a great Test, as everyone who actually did watch it has attested. So all you're doing by 'saying it as you see it' is showing just how wrong-headedly you see it.
