The Cricket Thread

[Jurgen the German]

I don't think that it matters. Cook is not a good captain and his batting is not good enough at the moment to warrant selection. I think that he needs to be taken out of the firing line before we do permanent damage to him as a player.

Oh no I agree 100%, just who do you give it to?

Bell probably but not with much enthusiasm

England win the toss and will bat, this is a huge day for Cook

Buttler, Woakes & Jordan in for Prior, Plunkett & Stokes

Ishant & Binny out for the Indians

 

[markysimmo]

Cook reaches 30 in a Test innings for the first time in 10 knocks, going back to the MCG...

Well done Cook, just keep ticking away **** the plonkers at sky.

Especially Warne, bloke is a turd, all he has done is slate Cook, ruining him because of his mate KP, now he is acting like he is his best mate when talking about him

 

[markysimmo]

Cook out for 95, shame for him, still him and Ballance have put England in a good position at 215-2

 

[markysimmo]

3rd test hundred from Ballance in 6 tests, looks a very good player

 

[markysimmo]

So he is just going to be a 20/20 ***** going forward now then

Kevin Pietersen has signed up to play in Australia's Big Bash competition with the Melbourne Stars.

The former England batsman will play for Melbourne in the next two T20 tournaments, which take place in December and January during the Australian summer.

Bell when on song is one of the best players in world cricket to watch, a beautiful hundred today, 150 for Ballance, 459-5 currently

 

[markysimmo]

167 for Bell, absolute worldy of a knock today...

50 for Buttler too on deboo, 526-6

Time to declare and have the last hour at India's top order?

Yeh cant see us batting too much longer now

 

[markysimmo]

India have been appalling in the field, numerous dropped catches and a missed stumping as easy as you could get in test cricket, not a good 2 days

18 overs left tonight, if we get them in I fancy us to get a couple out

 

[markysimmo]

Buttler with 21 off an over hahaha, upto 84 now, so they should let him get his hundred, it isnt going to take long...

 

[markysimmo]

Bowled for 85, shame great 1st knock though, England declare at 569-7

 

[Spursalot]

Now we get to see whether it's the pitch or our batsmen.


Can't say I'm massively confident given recent performances.

 

[markysimmo]

Anderson has got it to swing in his first few balls, Cook is a bit negative with his field though...

 

[markysimmo]

1 out, Anderson bowled caught Cook, good catch

 

[markysimmo]

Seriously **** off plastic faced **** Warne, he has been on commentry for 3 mins and every time he makes a semi compliment about England he follows it up with a snide dig
