They've had a couple better. Root Prior in the first test and till 270/2 in the second.

I'd sack the Notts groundsman. Cockhead.

Sack my bollocks!

Crumbs, this is dire. It's like watching a late season county match, trundlers vs blockers on a featherbed.

by PeterCS Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:30

Avert your eyes, Dello.

You know it makes sense.

by Brass Monkey Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:35

Actually maybe I've done the groundsman a bad turn - I was looking at the average score at TB this season (turns out to be 280). But when I looked at the scores, the last 10 innings look like this:

377
335
505
392
271
387/4
168
461
402
111/3

It has been pretty dry.

Like Dello's humour.

by Brass Monkey Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:39

Mm-hmm.

Ishant F* king Sharma gets a wicket. Was Robson gunned?

by tricycle Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:47

Oxenford's having a shocker. Two really shit decisions this match.

by furriner Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:50

That may have been out actually.

by taipan Fri 11 Jul 2014, 13:53

Out comes Ian Bell, England's miniature titan

After a second look and a third, maybe not out.

by Brass Monkey Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:13

He'd have been given not out under the decision review system, due to two aspects detecting an edge.

by tricycle Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:28

To give the devil its due, Sharma has been very good in the past three tests. Ganguly's talking bollocks though, Sharma's been worth every bit of criticism he's received.

by PeterCS Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:46

Ian Bell. England's secret weapon.

Or not-so-secret not-so-weapon.

by LeFromage Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:50

Classic Ian Bellelephant - he never forgets (how to execute a soft dismissal when seemingly well set).

by Merlin Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:52

Absolute bloody shambles ....
250 all out by 5.30 this evening.
Following on, England close on 16 for 1 with Cook back in the hutch for 6.
You heard it here first!

by PeterCS Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:54

You whingey old Jeremiah. England are just lulling them.

by LeFromage Fri 11 Jul 2014, 14:55

Naw, it won't be that bad. We're into the good batsmen now. Moeen and Stokes not out overnight. In the first innings.
