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

This will sound very contrarian but I actually have far more regard for him now than I ever did when he played and captained.

Nah, I don’t disagree with that

 

[Antzzz]

Nassar Hussain looks like Putin

More like Monty Burns

 

[Jim Prideaux]

Gonna be some tired bowlers without Gaz there tho

After these spells for sure

Yeah, it will be a potential issue

 

[Plugger35]

Ladies and gentlemen, the Ashes are coming home

Never write off England or New Zealand while Stokes is still there.

Brook already has four centuries in tests. Bairstow had 6 in his first 85 or something. I think he has a good career ahead of him regardless of whether flaws are found in his technique this summer.

 

[smasha]

Can't hit it now poms haha.

 

[10Dulkar]

Smith has great hands as we know from his slip fielding but how about the athleticism? That was worthy of Brett Lee.

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

Not again, Green

 

[Moonwatcher]

Look at that no ball

 

[Peter Bixley]

Yeah, it will be a potential issue

We just need to go balls deep to win this game. Rotation will have to play a part, but get over the line here and the urn stays in Australia, for me.

 

[dexter_]

OMG Green

That's a massive no ball from you know who.

 

[freo_leo29]

Greeny mate plz

 

[Tugga27]

You have to wonder why they didn't try the short stuff with the new ball.

I know they want to swing it but we hardly bowled a bouncer.

 

[Antzzz]

This brook is a joke

 

[Kennedy Parker]

Brook to be bowled by a Cummins yorker while backing away

 

[freo_leo29]

Someone plz York him when he steps

 

[Plugger35]

Brook swinging for the pickets here.

 

[smasha]

Missed by a whisker.

 

[The Casey Cat]

Bowl it at the stumps please. If they smash it so be it.

 

[danielnajdek]

Nice slog from the slogger

 

[Jim Prideaux]

This is worse than “basketball background”. The bloke went to the match in London, shut your noise.

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

Harry Brook is playing baseball right now. No wonder. He's got an MLB sticker on his bat and did a video of him playing baseball.

 

[Magma]

there's no way he doesnt get bowled

 

[frankrizzo]

wow thats a massive no ball greens got to get his shit together here not much point having a 5th bowler if they cant step up in these situations.
