*Official* England in India 2023/24 #CryMoreTour

[SillyCowCorner1]

Seriously, why is this a bad thing? Yes, media should find ways to generate public interest in a match. Sometimes that involves running stories about things people will be interested in.

What I have an issue with is the yellow journalism...twisting words to make a headline.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Really hope it's not a raging turner. We've made their spinners look bang average these last two tests, no need to bring them into the game now.

Coincidentally been exceptionally quiet in this thread of late

 

[Burgey]

These news headlines are sensationalism at its best.

I ****ing hate it. The unveiling of the pitch a few days prior to the start of the test. We don't have that **** over here in the West Indies.

The ridiculous thing about this, no matter where it happens, is pitches very rarely, if ever, look the same way on match day as they do three or four days out

I unfortunately have been traveling so I couldn't watch this last test.

i just want pitch to be quick and have bounce regardless of turn. then this will take care of the rest:

im sure it has nothing to do with India winning or Jadeja taking a 5fer on a flat as **** pitch

 

[danzydab]

Batting first gives the best chance of winning for england, if they bowl first it is very difficult for them to come back considering the massive difference in the quality of english and indian bowlers

I still commented when India won the previous test, so no.

 

[danzydab]

wow jimmy in the XI.
rehan out and ollie rob in

 

[Aidan11]

Robinson and Bashir in for Rehan and Woody.

 

[danzydab]

would've preferred atkinson over anderson

 

[JavaHurricane]

Stupid selection... Again. Should've handed Atkinson a debut to go with Robinson. Two RFM pacers here, not sure I buy that call.

 

[Shri]

no anderson at dharamshala then?

 

[Chin Music]

Highs in the low teens seems still pretty damn cold to me (though more hospitable for the English than India). Fair bit of rain forecast too.

Positively balmy for northern English county cricket fans thinking about the start of the county championship in about 6 weeks!

 

[RightArmMystery]

Bairstow still in the XI.

 

[Gnske]

No he's playing allegedly, poor guy can't take his ****ing old man nap.
