Certified Legendary Thread 2nd Ashes Test England v Australia June 28-July 2 1930hrs @ Lords

[FreoGirl]

Green's had an absolute shocker.

he's still got more out of the ball than the others

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

They need to take the boy off.

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Prove me wrong campaigners. I don’t think we’re hard enough to not fold under that depressing turn of events.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Would have been 1 wicket away from even in the match.

 

[smasha]

Another road pitch sigh,taking out our bowling attack the poms.

 

[cows]

**** me ...

 

[Bradesmaen]

Too many no balls from Green. No one else has bowled one.

 

[freo_leo29]

They need to take the boy off.

Problem is he's the only one whose looked like taking a wicket

 

[bradydaw91]

Big dopey Green

 

[Magma]

the coaching staff needs to take him off for 15-20 mins and get in his ear and calm him down

 

[Corn Cobbers]

They need to take the boy off.

Slug Jordan?

 

[Plugger35]

The drama of test cricket.

You can't beat it.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Root might go on and make 200 now.

 

[FreoGirl]

England were so lucky that their wicket taking balls were the rare legal deliveries

100% - not sure why everyone's cracking the shits with Green, after much more experienced English bowlers were constantly bowling no balls

 

[freo_leo29]

the coaching staff needs to take him off for 15-20 mins and get in his ear and calm him down

He gets 1 spell tho, if he's off we won't see him for ages

 

[bradydaw91]

Duckett literally never ducks it LOL

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Root might go on and make 200 now.

IF they chase our total with 2 wickets lost how many heads roll?

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

Slug Jordan?

He's given him one too. The boy's done well.

 

[FreoGirl]

Root might go on and make 200 now.

isn't that more Cummins' and Starc's faults?

 

[Jim Prideaux]

I can’t tell. Is the pitch actually lifeless or is it our bowlers aside from Lyon have been poor?

Lords is not really known for having roads, so I’m skeptical it’s all pitch.

To my eye, Starc has been pretty awful so far this match.

No doubt as I say that he will get a wicket.

It’s a bit of both currently. I think our bowlers have been poor/have the wrong technique for this pitch. But, the conditions aren’t favourable currently

 

[Mr Meow]

IF they chase our total with 2 wickets lost how many heads roll?

We only have one, and it was a bad shot but I wouldn't drop him.

 

[smasha]

Wheels have fallen off.
Lyon's injury,him visibly upset make me feel gutted then the cherry on top ,the no ball.
I hate Lions.

 

[1989]

Feels like they're 200 ahead, not behind.

 

[Plugger35]

Meanwhile Duckett just moves closer to a ton amongst the havoc.

 

[Aristotle Pickett]

isn't that more Cummins' and Starc's faults?

No , I wouldn't say that.
