*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

“550 is par on this”. 550 is never par. Which is why if someone makes it they almost always win. If you make over 400 batting first anywhere you’re in the game
This is the 2530th Test match played , only 8 teams have lost posting 550 or more in their Test innings.
So basically a less than 1% of losing a test match lol.

Just see off 6 overs of Bumrah without anything stupid. That's all you have to do then cash in. Not play stupid shots like that. Root you idiot.

Look there is some cricketing logic to the shot. But there's a much greater cricketing logic in realising that this Indian attack is now insanely reliant on Bumrah and there's just no need to take any undue risks against him.

Genuinely think that's almost up there all time with Gabriel's hoick. Bumrah wasn't even looking threatening. Like, what the ****.

Root has nothing to lose. He already lost captaincy and under the new leadership and new template he has free license/freedom. Not like he will lose his place in the side for being irresponsible. 4th innings of last game and now this.

Lol. Just does whatever the jocks tell him to. Had an easy downhill skiing ton staring him in the face and he goes and does a thing like that. What a chump.
