*Official* West Indies Tour of England, JULY 9th to 25th, 2024-- 3 TEST MATCHES

[Qlder]

How is Zac Crawley feeling. Every English bat has scored a 50 in this match except Crawley who scored 0 and 3

 

[CartyDurham]

Nobody acknowledged it until now

 

[CartyDurham]

morning/afternoon all

missed most of today but the scores looking good

still think England need at least another 150

How is Zac Crawley feeling. Every English bat has scored a 50 in this match except Crawley who scored 0 and 3

Tbf got a gem in the first innings and (somewhat) unlucky run out in the second. Been arguably our best bat for a year or so, can't feel too bad.

 

[CartyDurham]

Sounded like an edge off brook but tucker said byes

 

[CartyDurham]

300 up

 

[Brook's side]

Last time England set WI 344, Greenidge chased it down in 60 overs.

At the time, that was seen as a conservative declaration by Gower.

That was one of those where Greenidge was injured I think.

 

[Qlder]

If Stokes is serious about England saving Test cricket then he should declare when 350

If Stokes is serious about England saving Test cricket then he should declare when 350

don't tempt him

 

[CartyDurham]

I think in their last tour in England, the Windies chased over 300 in a test at Headingley

England will need 400 plus to feel the game is safe

What thread was it where we were discussing where Root will end up on the all time runs list? I can’t see how he doesn’t get second.

 

[BazBall21]

Want this to finish with Brook 200* and Root 150*

 

[GIMH]

A pretty little 150 would be nice

 

[BazBall21]

Second. Think he will get there but Tendulkar is too far.

 

[BazBall21]

A pretty little 150 would be nice

I see a slog fest and declaration mid-session. This pitch isn't deteriorating.

He's overtaken Chanderpaul into 8th this morning. If he gets 135 he'll overtake Lara too.

 

[CartyDurham]

I think they just said that in the history of test cricket , England have not scored 400 in both innings before

 

[Aritro]

Will that steeply inclining roof actually keep any sun or rain out?

 

[PlayerComparisons]

What thread was it where we were discussing where Root will end up on the all time runs list? I can’t see how he doesn’t get second.

He can pass Cook by the end of the year

 

[GIMH]

This summer, every time I say something like this it goes **** up for the batsman concerned. But Root just effortlessly hitting another gear here.
