5 test series coming up

India should hire Glen McGrath as bowling consultant

India 3-1 I reckon....



Of course its not you dope, you cant win enough tests to make a WTC final

"The WTC, for us, is not the be-all and end-all," Gould says, speaking before last week's final, "because we also enjoy the Ashes and we will enjoy the India series.

is Archer perma injured ?

 

[Bazal]

That bowling attack comes out here for the Ashes and we're gonna score f**ken 250 an innings! Look out!

Your lordship, first of his name, king of the Andals Sir Woakes owning India at his mercy...

Sorry. where's the pitch?

 

[Bazal]

Poms might have stitched themselves up lol. A trim and a roll and the deck looks an absolute road, which they have bowled first on.

Still, India in England...

Ricky Ponting advisory committee regarding toss win ?

India 2/128 - 33 overs

Hope they put on 500

 

[TheParraboy]

Ind 2/177

 

[JJ]

359/3 at stumps…. That attack will be useless in Australia…

And Crawley still in the team? Too funny

 

[TheParraboy]

Gill averaging 35.00 in 33 tests

127* at stumps day 1

Captaincy suiting him well…

 

[King-Gutho94]

India scoring at over 4runs per over with ease.

85 overs in a days play.

Honestly over rates are becoming a joke teams can't get the full 90 in.

 

[Bazal]

Heh. Called it in the fourth over. Absolute road, horrible call to bowl first too cos it looks quite dry for an English track

 

[JJ]

Gill has been the anti Labs, usually looked in control, etc but never any luck

Watched some highlights and some of England’s efforts in the field were like players from the 40’s, jogging at half pace and shit.

I guess not trying is one of the fundamentals of bazball.

All good, Duckett will ramp a few balls and they'll all get out slogging so they can say they revolutionised test cricket. Tossers.

 

[Bazal]

India could genuinely bat 3 days and score 1200 runs and I'd back England to Bazball themselves to an innings loss before lunch on Day 5
