England test tour of Pakistan December 2022

[TheJediBrah]

Baxball publicity is in overdrive

Nasser thinks a classical team would be 80/5 but because England bazball'd they have an extra 100 runs

 

[flibbertyjibber]

So Bazball flunked in the session then. In trouble here.

Tbh if I’m being a bit facetious, do we know England would have lost only two wickets if they batted attritionally? Defence isn’t a strong point of this top six.

Nasser Hussain is ***ually attracted to Ben Stokes

You ****s haven't heard of Arrested Development?
How old are you?

25, and I'm not the sitcom watching type.

Yeah if they were 180/5 at tea that'd be a pretty average to meh first day for most teams away.

Nawaz (3) to clean up the tail

 

[chris.hinton]

Burgey has piped up

He was missing last week

 

[chris.hinton]

But we are going to get these sessions. Key, McCullum, Stokes are the greatest Trio since the Beegees. And they are driven and are improving everything

NEW WORLD ORDER

 

[chris.hinton]

Probably the only bowling attack against which bazball won't work, Cummins/Starc/Hazlewood are just too good for that.

Bookmarked

Stokes has played a gem on a turner before.

 

[Darwin Award]

So it's not going to be a records tabs kind of day sadly

Well one long time record has now fallen and Stokes crashing some boundaries off the last few balls off the over right before lunch did the trick.

... Most runs in the first day of a test in the first session: 5/180... beating the previous record set waaaay back in 1902 by South Africa against Australia 1/179.

They came oh so close doing so last test but I think they bowled 6 more overs this time and that got them over the line.

Is it sad that as of this week I finally understand your username and pic after years of wondering what the **** you're meant to be

Yes.

Though in fairness it also took a while for me as well.

 

[morgieb]

Could Abra Cadabra take all 10 here? That would be insane.

Tbh I was thinking just before lunch that Root's England could quite possible be around that score. I mean it's never the plan to be 5 down at lunch so I'm not saying that was a win in the session......but considering 30 odd for 3 was our norm in and if Root went cheap the innings was more or less over. Nass probably does have a point......even if it's a tenuous one.

Hey I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's unlikely

What a record! Some knock from Llewellyn that, ftr. Against a pretty strong attack.

You can't dispute the math tbf. Disprove his theorem, the calculus is tested and proven
