CRICKET WTC and Ashes Tour of England

[Bull Shark]

Need a big burst after lunch with the ball here.. grey skies, some movement in the air & some turn in the pitch.. challenge these mutts & their ‘calculated aggression’ with some good old fashioned test match bowling that we’re great at

 

[Bull Shark]

Why has this ended up on Gem?

it’s Sunday night and it can’t have the main channel?

just doesn’t make sense

Channel Nine doing to the Ashes what Alan did to Bob Ryan’s script in Entourage

 

[Fitzy]

Shithouse bowling to start. Shocker

 

[Aldo]

Didn't know Hayley Joel Osment opened the batting for England.

 

[Fitzy]

These cameraman don’t understand the task. I want a geeze at Carey’s eye it looks infected.

 

[Bull Shark]

In the vain hope of sparking a massive reverse jinx, I don’t understand this bowling from Australia at all ..

 

[Fernando]

Getting out of this game with a draw would be huge for us...pretty lame but I hope it keeps raining.

Neither. Really dislike the negative approach and just shows baz ball has mentally defeated us. It is difficult though with the pitch doing nothing to have attacking fields, nearly worth defending and just capitalising on errors. But if there are no errors than we are fucked.

"Moeen Ali has been fined 25% of his match fee and handed one demerit point after admitting to using an unauthorised drying agent on his bowling hand in the first Ashes Test."

 

[Sproj]

12 month suspension incoming? Meh probably doing England a favour if that happens.

I’ve got to say, I really want to see Bazball on a wicket they isn’t a road and whether it works. Every pitch they’ve played on so we has been cement.

 

[Fernando]

Yeah wonder what's the diff between "drying agent" and sand paper? Pretty sure all knew it was against the rules at the very least

 

[Fernando]

>green takes catch like 10cm above the grass
>pommy crowd roars

lmao. Another incredible catch from Green, he's amazing

 

[Fernando]

Get the **** outta here Crawley

 

[Fernando]

Off for rain but that was a good sesh from our guys, well done lads.

That was another sensational catch from Green.

 

[Xzei]

I keep hearing 'bazball' isnt that just hayden/gilchrist era cricket?

 

[Allo]

Game effectively becomes an 80-90 over one day game if the weather stays away

A draw looks likely

You can use it, you just have to ask the umpires, it goes on your hand not the ball- pretty massive difference.

If he'd asked the umpire and put it on in the dressing rooms, no issue.

Jadeja got the same punishment for putting cream on his finger against Australia.

Yeah 5 runs an over aggressive Test cricket with 350 in a day. It's not the revolution it's being painted to be.
