*Official* Second Test at Trent Bridge

[TT Boy]

Took me 2 days to finally access this site and I’ve just finished work for the week. ****ing Great Firewall. England for the win.

Apparently, barbers in Nottingham are cheaper than in India or London .

 

[Goughy]

Holding slating Kumar already

 

[keeper]

Strong words from Holding about Kumar opening the bowling. Thinks Sreesanth should be on...

Wtf? He says some bonkers things, does Holding. Kumar is at his best when it swinging.

Sreesanth should be on instead of Sharma if anything.

Dhoni changed from an aggressive strokeplayer to a comparatively more defensive one after his haircut. Lets see what happens to Ishant

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Some haircut that.

 

[Cevno]

Not much pace in the pitch right now. Will quicken up a bit later, i guess.

Not sure how wise it is to bowl Sharma in such conditions to 2 Lefties ahead of Sree. Ishant is much better to the right handers.

 

[Burgey]

Sharma looks about 40 with his hair cut.

 

[TumTum]

Ishant got a haircut, doesn't look like a homeless guy now

 

[Cevno]

Close call.

 

[centurymaker]

dhoni go ****ing die you ******.

why bowl again? ******* ****

england to win this comfortably again.

Looked out to me on first view and hawkeye confirmed it. Review that Dhoni.

That 2.5m rule is stupid, not that it matters with it being unable to be used.

 

[Uppercut]

Hmm. I'd say that's out but it'd be a seriously brave umpire to give an lbw for an outswinger over the wicket with Cook batting out of his crease.

 

[Burgey]

How is that "umpires call" on whether it's hitting? The graphic seemed to show it was hitting comfortably. If anything the pitching on leg would also have given him pause.

Can see why it wasn't given tbh.

It would have been given NO on a review...

I think it has to be hitting some part of middle when he's 2.5 metres out of his crease?

They have wider margins of error when the batsman bats out of his crease, I believe.

Ishant!!!!
