    Joe Root is number one

    Better than the rest of the fab 4 combined.

    Which ridiculous Bazball win is the best?

    I think the Hyderabad heist was the greatest because they really wouldn’t have been expected to win that. Even when Pakistan scored 550 here, I still had England as favourites to win.

    Is this one of the funniest graphics produced by ESPN Cricinfo?

    Why did they use the cricketers’ images in the histogram? 😂 I’ve never seen that done before but at least it highlights how Root is miles ahead of every other Test batter at the moment.

    How is mentioning people from China racist? Is pointing out the systemic caste-based violence, murder, rape, burning down of villages etc in India also racist? You don’t have the moral high ground so stop trying to lecture me.

    I said you have no experience of me. Sort out your own issues in India before you start calling others racist.

    You’re the only person who has mentioned India. If you want to talk about discrimination there: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-66253389.amp Those who live in glass houses…

    I just asked my wife (who is of East Asian descent) if I am racist. The response was that I should stop posting on cricket forums, which is probably sound advice. But the consensus was that I am not racist at all.

    How is that casual Asian racism? Are you not aware of the bus loads of Chinese tourists around the world? Aussie “cricket fans” are similar to them. Nothing racist about it.

    Aussie Spectators

    The Aussie supporters are mainly from the upper class as most Australians can’t afford to travel to England while taking a couple of months off work. Therefore, they are usually garbage and look like the bus loads of Chinese tourists you see around the world. Just there to get the t-shirt but...

    Zak Crawley cricketing WUM

    I have always defended Crawley as the attacking opener we need in the bazball era. I have full faith in this batting approach and I hope more Englishmen are won over by the style. When I opened the batting for Lboro Uni, I took the same approach but I was far before my time. T20 cricket hadn’t...

    Two paced pitch now, may only need 2 sessions to bowl Oz out.

    Ufff that stayed very low. Pretty good signs for England if they can get a 200 run lead.

    *Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

    How are Australia getting away with an over rate of 11? That’s intentionally taking time out of the game and unsporting.

    Nice Crawley, well played lad. Now time to bring in an attacking batsman.

    *Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

    Australia are on the ropes already and look mentally shot. They look tired in the field yet have only been out there for 52 overs! Barely an ODI game.

    *Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

    Since when does Crawley have a forward defensive block in his repertoire? Oh okay followed up with a four, makes sense

    *Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

    You sound surprised. Having said that, this situation should be his bread and butter as a T20 specialist.

    *Official* Fourth Test (Old Trafford, Manchester) 19-23 July

    To be fair to Cummins he is being put under an awful lot of pressure. You don’t suddenly become a bad bowler overnight. Even supreme athletes have mental blocks.
