Mitch "Slowest 'fast' strike bowler in the world" M ftw

 

[King Pietersen]

Brilliant. Played Trott. Give it a couple of overs and Bell'll do the same.

 

[_Ed_]

Again, Mitch!

17 wickets @ 17.05 now. Not too bothered about pace when he's producing figures like that tbh.

 

[BeeGee]

Do England have time for a slow Root?

 

[Cabinet96]

Massive last 20 for England. Their game plan is concentrated around maximising them, and they've got wickets in hand today.

 

[Howe_zat]

Do England have time for a slow Root?

I wouldn't have it any other way.

 

[Cabinet96]

18 off the last 13 balls, and they start talking about how England are needing to push on again. They know what they're doing.

And as I type, Bell smashes Munro over cover for four.

 

[Howe_zat]

Yeah this partnership's worked pretty well. Just another case of "so long as they don't get out now".

 

[Pothas]

Which obviously they do.

 

[Spark]

Not hall-of-fame jinx but still quality.

 

[stumpski]

Botham amusingly indignant at the time it took to give that. Should have given it 'in' just for the lols.

Bell

 

[ajdude]

Isn't it about time Bell hit one to mid-off, he's passed 30.

hey there it is

 

[Pothas]

Stunning. Just stunning.

 

[King Pietersen]

Amazing. Superb batting.

 

[BeeGee]

Mitch the postman always delivers.

Typical Bell.

 

[Expressway76]

Ahh the good old traditional Bell mistimed chip, it's what English summers are made of.

 

[stumpski]

Isn't it about time Bell hit one to mid-off, he's passed 30.

How do you pronounce Ronchi?

(1) got there eventually.

(2) conveniently, rhymes with 'donkey.'

 

[Pothas]

It's time for Ravi.

 

[theegyptian]

This should be Buttler not Bopara.
