5th Test: 8pm England v India @ The Oval Jul 31-Aug 4, 2025

[TheParraboy]

Series so far 2-1 to the Poms

India win they retain the trophy

Start this Thursday

Be interesting what Poms do if there is a choice of going for a risky win and potentially of no trophy or a definite draw and win it back.
Considering they mouth off they don't play for draws


The great Jamie Overton added to the Poms squad.

Gambhir is a prickly customer.

But f**k the English. I hope India trounce them in the 5th test. Would be a massive fail if England lost the test and ended up drawing the series leaving the trophy with India.

The moral custodians of cricket will soon have no one to drink beers with.

 

[mozza91]

Both of these sides measure highly on the f**kwit scale.

I’m ok for England to win and get even cockier for when we hammer them this summer.

 

[Valheru]

If India win the toss they actually get to decide if they bat or bowl first if you can believe that. It really should be deferred to Ben Stokes to decide what the morally correct course of action is.

I don't want either team to be in the test championship final so to that end we probably need England to win here. India have home series to come against us, SA and WI and away series against NZ and SL. It's hard to see too many tests being taken off them there.

Ben Stokes sooked so hard the other day he tore his heart muscle.

 

[Bazal]

Poor Stokesy. He had to wave his hand so much trying to get those mean nasty horrible Indians to shake it, he's torn a f**ken shoulder!

Jamie Overton playing test cricket makes me wonder when Tall Paul Walter gets the call up.

I thought that at the beginning of the series - however, I think England have taken the f**kwit championship

This is the same venue the great Dom Sibley scored a triple couple of weeks back

Ind 6/204 day 1 stumps, rain interrupted

Stand by to watch history being made Zac Crawley to Beat Laras 400..

 

[TheParraboy]

Oh no, his highness…

 

[Mr. Shaman]

They’re not known for it, but starchy fight back from the Indian quicks today, Creepy and the Goblin were f**king them up big time.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

Oh no, his highness…

Broke what?

Deep’s a clown but Duckett deserved the send-off. TBF he also put on a stiff upper lip when he did.

But it’s making for a very entertaining WTC Final. Wanker Test Championship
