Who do we blame for this now Burns has already been dropped?

Too much time and money invested in white ball cricket has left us with shit. The Hundred, played in July and August just to get the kids and Mums involved. **** off! Absolute bollocks.

The 100 sums up absolutely everything wrong with English cricket.

‘It is what it is’ straight off the bat from Root

They say that but it’s designed for banksters to swill away the night in the summer and buy £20 falafel burgers.

Opportunity

This test was an opportunity a couple of days ago

Will he dare say “you can’t legislate for [x]”?

Even Root would draw the line there. Wouldn’t he?

Make the ****ers walk to Sydney. They've got a 2 and a half day start, so should be just about doable.

How can Moeen sit there and not launch into a tirade? Fair play to him for keeping his counsel.

Nigel_Scarfer 28-12-2021 01:12 AM

It is what it is - **** off Root you soppy twat.

"The way we went about our cricket was excellent" has he been watching a different 2 day international to everyone else?

Root as captain is the equivalent of promoting the best salesman to sales manager. Just because they are good at one job doesn't mean that they're going to be good at the other, and just because Root is by far our best batsman doesn't mean he's any good as captain. That needs to immediately change, but who to give it to? Not Stokes, too injury prone, mental health issues, too inconsistent etc and i can't think of any other sensible options in the current setup barring a very short term fix of someone like Jimmy. Just give it to whoever the best captain is in county cricket and hope they can get a few runs. Far too important a role to not have someone that's good at it.

“Credit to the guys for fronting up”

“I actually thought that the way we went about our cricket on the field was excellent”

“We’ve just got to do things for longer”

“We have to look to keep getting better”

Brilliant Joe.

Lol an innings defeat. What a joke the ashes have become. Guess test cricket isn’t where it’s at for the U.K.

This must be boring for the Aussies even.

I cannot fault the execution of our software.

The way we went about our data was excellent.

Amazing, I blame the ball. It was fast and straight

We go again

We’ll keep believing

Some other meaningless old bollocks he’s stolen off the Palace Twitter or Cheryl Cole’s Instagram page

Silverwood…

“We had a good honest chat.”

Ok mate. Nice one.
