Finnegan Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Is bowling in a test really so different to bowling in an ODI that you'd drop the top wicket taker at the world cup just gone, on these pitches?
RowlattsFox Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 At least by bowling first we won't feel doomed after half and hour. Must be good looking batting pitch if the Aussies are choosing to bat, you'd think naturally they'd want to pressure on England straight away. Surprised to see Peter Siddle in there but he knows how to take wickets in England and given how much we struggled against the Irish seamers it might be a clever selection.

I think the main reason for this test is that we're playing at Woakes' home ground so he always bowls well here. Also Archer has been suffering from a side strain so it gives him another week to rest. I think we'll see him back in the second test especially if we lose. It's quite a brave decision though after the World Cup. Generally though there is quite a difference in particular in the way batsmen play. In an ODI batsmen are under pressure to put on a score and bat aggressively whereas in test match it's slow and steady wins the race so a lot of balls are left or blocked. It's down to the bowlers to "work" the batsmen and force them into a mistake - it's why you've got Anderson playing test match but not ODI.
Izzy Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Warner's gonna get a ton ain't he And sorry, but names and numbers on shirts in test cricket can get in the bin.
Brainy Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Why on earth is Bancroft getting some sort of heroes welcome from the Aussie camp? (speaking about Langer's comments a few days ago)
walkerleeds Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Wtf were that choir doing with the national anthem then?!

The ball for one is a factor. It's also the continuous rhythm of bowling spells - potentially 20 overs in a single day, even in an extreme 30 overs. Throw in an injury too. 18 minutes ago, RowlattsFox said: Surprised to see Peter Siddle in there but he knows how to take wickets in England and given how much we struggled against the Irish seamers it might be a clever selection. He's the Aussie must suited to English conditions and as been for a number of years.

RowlattsFox Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 haha, reviews not going to well so far. Used when not out, not used when out, and not used when he wasn't out.
fuchsntf Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 One missed clip.not reviewed.. One wicket ,not out ,not reviewed... Sort of how sport balances itself out... And shows the real difficulties...that the umpires have....
Voll Blau Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 I'm amazed Dar gave that in real time, didn't look close to me having seen the replay.
Guest MattP Posted 1 August 2019 Posted 1 August 2019 Great start. Booooooooo CHEAT CHEAT CHEAT "gets out" Booooooooo

It's hugely different, early in the morning you'll want to bowl a fuller length trying to get some swing, later on when the ball is old you'll probably try and be a more aggressive and a bit shorter if it isn't doing much, the red ball moves more as well. Starc bowls a lot of yorkers in ODIS and there is no point trying to get top batsmen out with those in a Test match when there is no scoring rate pressure. Then as someone else said, the workload. Starc probably has to bowl 20-25 overs today rather than his maximum of ten and you are bending your back for more effort in this format.
