Along_the_Wire fuck me, is there a more boring batter than Sibley? Painful. Root is in amazing form
alistair Commentator’s curse etc etc - but yeah, Root looks in great touch at the moment.
I’ve just put all of the cricket, footie and rugby games I wanna watch over the next 5-6 weeks into my and Vicki’s shared calendar. She’s not hugely impressed…
alistair The Vicar of Sibley is exactly what we need. Playing that way he needs to bat for 2 days though
Joe Root makes it look so effortless. Imperious batting/form
baggers44 his first very good innings against spin. Still prefer Crawley and think his technique is questionable
Sibley has exactly the game and attitude to grind down attacks on pitches like this.
Root scores quickly so his drop the anchor approach suits perfectly.
Smallman1 Yep 400 wont be enough . These 2 need to go on from here well into tomorrow.n
Draw at 9/2 is surely easy money?!
Along_the_Wire well we thought that last time and got bowled out for 200 in the second innings
Along_the_Wire Was a lot less when I looked.
Put £10 on India @ 3:1
Alistair, a question.
Do you think you know less about cricket or good music?
Cheers.
Ed
Smallman1 ooh you are cheeky. I will be proved right with Sibley. His 36 average in 15 games is mediocre.
baggers44 got to be in it to win it. £25 laid in it.
England are absolutely flying and India are getting increasingly frustrated. Root still there and Stokes on the charge
Stokes literally breaking this Indian attack
Woke up at 4am as have a dislocated bone in my foot. Good to have some decent cricket to keep me company…
vinnyt77 There aren’t any superlatives left to describe Root’s batting right now
vinnyt77 i used to love it when the lad was v little and the cricket was on which is so much better than waiting for Cbeebies to start.
alistair sensational - hope he’s still going like this for the Ashes. Pope should cash in here too and I’ll be a bit miffed if we don’t get 600.
alistair Even if he’s out without scoring another run, he’s averaging 125 in 2021…. 🤯
baggers44 Pope’s such a busy player. Always looking for scoring opportunities. Like him
baggers44 My boss was saying yesterday that it’s the one part of the year where he doesn’t mind having a two year old that wakes him up at indecent times on a Saturday…
alistair aye. the Ian Bell comparison is apt.
