Anyone into the cricket?

I can’t watch anymore. Totally over the England side. It’s just boring highly predictable bollox.
They aren’t up to it and just continue with the same plan regardless.
I’ll actually be glad when the old guard are gone and they can begin rebuilding with new talent. Seems like they’ve been around forever.

baggers44 correct . and wtf is up with Robinson dobbing it down at 78 mph.?

He’s a fucking joke for Test Match cricket, proper trundler.

I initially thought it was fitness but clearly technique.

We’ll have people bowling under-arm next

Mad_Cyril Robinson isn’t the problem and he’s never been quick so it’s strange to hold that against him. It’s the balance of England’s attack that is the issue. He’s got his test wickets at an average of just over 22. Anderson’s was 32 for this first 20 tests.

I know you have a massive hard on for him but his stats are massively skewed.

Any decent sample size outside England are nowhere near what you’ve quoted.

He has a limited skill set that works in a limited scenarios. Not the hallmarks of a quality Test Match bowler.

I’m amazed he’s not been coached for more speed, not difficult and if effective he could be lethal! Maybe it affects his ability to move the ball around or his body simply cannae take it! I dunno.

If I had to bat for my life against him or Cummins I’m in Robinson’s net every day

alistair

It’s a pity that England’s fast bowlers are a bunch of sicknotes

alistair

Mad_Cyril oh for sure but for my money Cummings is the world’s best bowler. My point is Robinson takes wickets and at an impressive rate.

alistair

Mad_Cyril OR reminds me a lot of Gus Fraser, pleased he took those two late wickets

Mad_Cyril he’s got potential and personality, but there is going to massive dearth when karate kid and Jimmy retire. Need to find some Pakistani and Carribean immigrants stat imo.

rhouses

England’s 91 is their highest opening stand in the Ashes since Andrew Strauss and Alastair Cook in 2011 at the SCG. This is the 36th Ashes Test since.

Not my words, the words of Andy Zaltzman.

rhouses he’s got potential and personality

Hope Root turns the screws on Green for that no ball.

Ben Duckett looks like a tiny Hans Christian Andersen character who hovers around at the end of the garden, waiting to be discovered by a child.

Cankles-McJeggings

Haha was thinking the same. The stumps are above his waist. He looks like he should be getting launched in one of those midget throwing comps. Strangle little ewok type fucker.
