They played really well in the UAE too but this looks incredible.

Congrats

The Dads Army episode featuring Fiery Fred tonight, what a way to cap the win.

Stuart Broad is ****ing awesome. Has become such a good bowler.

 

[harsh.ag]

Broad is going to run 500 test wickets close if he continues this way. Who would have thunk??

Still not good enough for the Indian side, ftr.

**** me.. Just done watching today's performance. Will be disappointed if England don't regain the number one position and hold on to it for a couple of years. + I am fully sold on Bairstow and will vehemently oppose all calls to get Butler in his place.

The England selectors tbf. Were willing to put up with a few years of mediocrity.

 

[Zinzan]

What a *** drubbing. So is it now official that England are the new South Africa and South Africa the new England?

guessing this was one of those broad spells where just about every good ball takes the edge and every half chance is taken

Not quite, he beat the bat plenty of times before lunch but didn't get edges until after.

Also a drop in there as well

Yeah, I got worried after the drop we may have blown our chance. Needn't have worried.

the highlights lied to me

 

[LegionOfBrad]

Well, I picked a fine day to be in the middle of nowhere without any phone signal.

Missed a Broad God spell.

Firdose Moonda's tears writ large all over her latest cricinfo piece. So good.

 

[91Jmay]

I don't really get why people hate her so much.

 

[Bahnz]

I don't really get why people hate her so much.

Probably has something to do with the fact that she's both a deluded fan girl and a legitimately terrible journalist.

 

[91Jmay]

She is certainly bias but no more than Botham, C9, Malcolm Conn (before he literally became a paid cheerleader for CA) et al.

 

[Stefan9]

I don't really get why people hate her so much.

Because she and her husband likes to press certain political agenda's. That's why she isn't liked by most South African fans who only want to see good cricket and don't care for the politics.

Sunday 17 January 2016 - the day this man became the leader of the #1 test cricket team in the world

Politics impacts everything, you can bury your head in the sand and pretend sport and politics don't mix but they do so it being ignored doesn't change anything.
