Anyone into the cricket?

rhouses

Rock paper scissors format. Fuck all.

rhouses Rock paper scissors format.

In isolation, I agree entirely.

In the context of what happened today, enjoy your can of whoopass

You got fucking humiliated rhouses. In your favoured discipline. Owned.

rhouses

Mad_Cyril Fair play. You bastards.

rhouses LOL!

Cankles-McJeggings Friends think this is worse than what Ponting did to us in ’03. I’m still hurting from giving up Test silverware from England this year.

In all honesty, couldn’t care less about this World Cup. Did lose $50, but whatever. ODI WC next year is where shit gets real.

Along_the_Wire

England’s innings was the most relaxed I’ve ever been watching cricket. Admittedly, not my favoured format, but the comment still stands.

rhouses

Along_the_Wire No denying, Jos and Hales made our batsmen out like chumps. And ludicrous Big Ro threw the bowlers under the bus after that disgraceful batting performance.

Also, as much as it pains me to say it, one wonders how many failures from Dravid do we have to put up with.

This is worse than 03 purely because this is the WC format the players want and consider themselves the best at. To get demolished like that hurts. Especially it being England doing it too. After their pretty decent innings you could see they thought it was theirs and so did the fans.

rhouses Sour grapes. Test cricket in India means empty stadiums

rhouses

alistair Sour grapes? What, you’re a noob cricket fan who prefers T20/100 over Test? Get a grip, please.

We absolutely destroyed you lot in England for the T20 and ODI bilateral series, it was barely worth mentioning.

alistair

rhouses those series mean shit. Are you trying to tell me that Test cricket is a thriving format in India. The empty grounds tell us otherwise. It’s your format and you got rinsed. As for England, could be reigning double world champs on Sunday

rhouses

alistair I’m not saying that we don’t own the format monetarily, of course we do. We make your lot and cricketers around the world millionaires thanks to it.

What I’m saying is you’re pretty noob if you prefer T20 over Test cricket,.

alistair

rhouses The point is the vast majority of Indians clearly do. I am happy to watch all formats

rhouses

And yes, personally, drawing an away Test series in England hurts far more than a T20 World Cup semi final loss.

rhouses

alistair I’m happy to watch all formats as well, but I never been one to care for populous sentiment, especially regarding T20 and even the IPL.

Red ball away series winss, always will be my format of choice. And what I consider ultimate. Mind, this might change for India, now that King is no longer running things.

alistair

rhouses unfortunately, it’s a fact of life that test cricket is in a slow death spiral outside of the Ashes which still make a lot of money. The empty grounds (outside England) and shorter series/fewer matches tell their own stories.

rhouses

alistair Feel like you’re basing that argument with two years of covid in play. Let’s see what happens now. I know there was a massive resurgence in interest for Test cricket when we destroyed Australia in Australia two times in row. Something England can only dream off, with your Ashes on a pedestal.

Cankles-McJeggings

Haha shut the fuck up rhouses.

rhouses

Cankles-McJeggings lol don’t tell me we didn’t you give you something to smile about in Oz when we OWNED those mofos in their own backyard. Two times in a row.

Cankles-McJeggings

Anyway the asx is the biggest selling car in Australia. I went in a gsr a bit back . Brutal 2.4ltr engine in a matchbox sized car. Paddle gear shift the lot. Cheaper than the Kia Seltos too and 10 years warranty.

rhouses

Cankles-McJeggings Nice. Driving in Indian cities, you want a fuel efficient car… not a powerful beast that would do well on the autobahn. 2.4 would be excessive and unnecessary in Bangalore.
