Painter Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) 27 minutes ago, Starshine said: I will be glad when this series over...been a f*****g embarrasment Some very strange decisions haven't helped... Wood and Broad now out. Only an injured Robinson left, who, of course will now do more damage to whatever he has damaged, and wont be able to bowl... Any reason why Anderson isnt playing this match? I can guess it's "part of our rotation policy"... yes, well play a bowler who hasnt played for weeks, and therefore gets hit all over the place... Edit... wood out, so Robinson hasnt faced a ball. 180 all out. All over by end of day 3, early flight home?

galenkia Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 2 wickets left for Australia and just over 250 lead. 5 wickets for Wood,so bowling going well but who's gonna bet on our batsmen?. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painter Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Blimey. The openers have, er, opened. Pity Burns didn't survive until tea the break. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painter Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 (edited) I guess the England team were in shock that the openers scored a few. As collapses go, this one has been rather spectacular... 55-9 since the ball before tea. Edited January 16, 2022 by Painter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galenkia Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Burns probably got out due to exhaustion from batting for so long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do many people actually attend County Championship games any more? I am not being facetious but it has been donkey's years since I went to Lords (or later Edgebaston) and there were precious few customers than.
