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

    Yeah I kinda agree, Hartley or Ahmed may mean we don't have to pick Woakes for his batting, coz his rat's arse bowling isn't it. Yet Bashir has done okay, but he needs to learn outside of Tests, not sure where though.

    I have never been the biggest fan of Potts, but there was a lot of talk of how he'd improved his game recently, starting on the A tour. So I was interested to see how he'd go. Guess we'll have to wait until the Third Test.

    I've been to have chips in a pub, not sure how I'm to react, yes we're better with batting, worse with bowling, similar results except for one great series. Actually odd he's hardly mentioned in this but Duckett maybe the biggest success story. Bairstow was great at the start of Bazball, but...

    No, and we may not have been in the situation where we had too, they were great fun, but generally coz we threw our wickets away in first innings. Anyway, I am and will just remain butthurt over the Jimmeh dropping, and when we probably need a seamer to seal up and end and let the others bowl...

    Yeah I get the Pope thing, but maybe he just grew into England, maybe it's Bazbeline who knows. The New Zealand series was one of the more frustrating ones of the lot, honestly I don't care a lot about outplaying but not winning a series when we should have. The Pakistan series is the one...

    It's one of the things I'd say was good, but as tangible results it's not made much difference that I can see. Neither of those three are World-beaters anyway ATM, though they flatter to be, and Pope was pre-Bazball wasn't he?

    I've declared it months ago, it's a meaningless buzzword, which so far has giving us no more tangible results than we'd had before. Some good things about some terrible.

    Well, looking at the weather forecast, it looks like it may calm down after 6 and there are some players who haven't teed off yet, may see a bolter or 2. The next hour possibly the worse.

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

    How the hell have we only managed 52 overs with 18 being bowled by Bashir, just fine them all their match-fee, and give the money to the Windies board, England have been ridiculous in this regard for awhile now, and it doesn't eactly make for exciting cricket. Mind you I suppose we make up for...

    Morikawa made up 3 shots in the last 8 holes to keep himself in it, just. The type of run that could be important come sunday.

    Think Rose may be someone whos snuck through without anyone talking about him, going to be in a decent position for the Weekend possibly. All depends on the wind I suppose, but not convinced it'll get up that much.

    Good pace from Wood, as expected, but these two will be happy not to play if not accurate.

    Southgate resigns

    It's clearly Southgates decision to go, I mean he would have had a job for life if the FA had their way. We should be okay though, depends who they get in. Think Howe may only do it if he think's he precariously placed at Newcastle. Yeah there were good times with Gareth, but as with most...

    Salt and Pepper could seriously happen for England couldn't it, for awhile Pepper was just an average county player, but **** me he's gone wild the last year or so, England must be looking.

    Badosa is as mentally weak as Sakkarri though, if Emma starts well on a Show court with a partisan crowd reckon she'll crumble. Anyway both have to play a match first, Emma must be big fave against a qualifier, but ya know qualifiers can be tricky as Emma as shown before...
