galenkia Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 86 ball century for Crawley, fastest ever by an England opener. First 20 overs England scored more runs than the T20 team in the World Cup final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great effort though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) I just watched Harry Brook hit six fours off the over. I cannot recall a first day of a Test Match for England like this. 😄 The locals are very quiet. 🤣 Another 15 for Brook will make four 100's in the day.

Painter Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Been out doing some admin and missed the end.... but this on the beeb seems to sum it up.... England added 233 for the first wicket. Yep, 233. Zak Crawley made 122 and Ollie Pope 108, while Ben Duckett and Harry Brook made their maiden Test centuries. Brook's came from just 80 balls, and he's unbeaten overnight. The slowest of those four hundreds was from 104 balls, by the way. Ben Stokes then blitzed 34 not out from 15 balls at the end. It was absolute chaos from start to finish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galenkia Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 First team to score 500 on the opening day of a test match. And they lost 15 overs to bad light. Could have been 600 way they were going. Mad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galenkia Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Just been watching the highlights of today's play. Brilliant finish, especially as the game looked heading for a draw after day three. Next one starts Friday I believe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 So, lunch on day 2, both first inning over, england lead by 79 after Pakistan do an English style collapse. Excellent england bowling this session. Let's see how we cope with their spinners... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
