4th Test at Old Trafford, Manchester

[Shri]

Somehow I have absolutely no recollection of this game at all. Manish Pandey?

it was in sydney lol

steve smith was bumrah's first ever international wicket

 

[trundler]

Yeah that's more like it. He'll probably see off the new ball and be invincible for the next 10.

 

[Burgey]

That ball's so dark it looks like it's barely been dyed. What's the bet we get given a bright red one?

They get to choose from the same boxes uimm.

Shot that from Paine

 

[Jarquis]

He actually got him out on debut:

Shame that Pandey couldn't get his ton...

Yeah that's why I'm puzzled why I don't remember it. I guess mid-cycle ODIs really are that unmemorable.

EDIT: Holy **** though, that "attack". MMarsh at first change...

You'd hope so (not that our lot would be any good at choosing any way). I remember reading a story once about NZ being caught switching out the match balls with an especially dark lot once. Not only are they harder to see, but it's thought that they swing more too.

Like I feel I should remember this, somehow, but I just have zero memory of it at all

 

[Burgey]

Jofra, mate. You’re bowling too short. You’ve been reading too much of your own press. Pitch it up ffs

 

[Starfighter]

I see the wind has finally brought the big beach ball onto the ground.

OH ****, i remember now thanks to mycricket. i was making a duck

 

[Spark]

This has all gone a bit village again

 

[Starfighter]

Around the wicket to the right hander with the new ball is not exactly a common strategy. Actually, I can only think of Mike Procter who used it. Still, whatever floats your boat.

 

[Spark]

That's probably the best shot he's played.

 

[Starfighter]

Move square leg in front of the popping crease, put in a leg slip and have some real leg theory. That's just a gift otoh.

ok so bearing in mind we won the premiership this specific season, we rolled a mid-table team for 109, we lost our fourth wicket on 109 so in strolls ajdude. must've been the end of the over or something cause we passed their score but we go 10 runs over just in case someone (usually me) ****ed up the books. old mate right arm party pies comes around the wicket to me (also a right hander) when we're on 112, i attempt a flick to fine leg (my bread and butter) but it came off my pad onto the stumps, and old mate proceeds to give me the biggest send off i've ever received. i was so baffled all i could give him was "mate we've already won the ****ing match". much better than an MMarsh ODI ton tbh

Those clouds are very pregnant

More evidence, were any needed, that our captain is somewhere below clueless. It's basically a white flag tactic; our bowlers aren't good enough to take his wicket using normal methods, so we try this nonsense.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well the rain dance has started.
