Cricket 2019

[Chiltern Fox]

Terrible news. RIP Bob. 

[sm1]

Great player, great pundit. Loved the debate & the verdict. Played his role as the pantomime villain beautifully. 

RIP Bob Willis you will be sorely missed.

So sad about Bob. The Verdict will just never be the same again.

 

Best pundit in cricket. Such a shame he's gone.

Not sure about that only anoraks and social misfits watch County cricket no Overseas players should be allowed in County Cricket sides like Leicester Derby Northants etc should fold just a view of his viewpoints

That's a complete lie. I spoke to him in Auckland about ten years ago and he wanted a return to the county cricket in the 70's.

[everton carr]

Not a complete lie at all said on many occasions over the years that 18 were too many Counties  and should be 10 at most he   blamed County Cricket every time England were doing badly.Dont get me wrong a great player and nice guy I just disagreed with many of his opinions

[StanSP]

Happy Boxing Day folks

England bowling first against the Saffers.

 

Could well be a very even series given how both sides are really in transition right now.

[AKCJ]

elgar was definitely on the razz last night

[leicsmac]

That wicket gives hope to pie chuckers like me everywhere

[Voll Blau]

Didn't see the first one, but very tame from Markram. Can we turn the screw now?

[Manini]

Excellent start this 

[Guest MattP]

250 might be a good score here with these batting line ups.

 

Can't believe how bad Archer is given his obvious talent. 

[Izzy]

Bloody hell I had no idea Sam Curran was son of former Zimbabwe cricketer Kevin Curran.
 

I really must pay more attention 

[StanSP]

Was pretty much ready to post about how good a ton that was by De Kock. Shame he got out as he's rescued that SA innings.

[StanSP]

Thought Stokes and Denly looked good for a great partnership.

 

Slightest of nicks for Stokes and now Bairstow bowled for 1 as well. 

[ealingfox]

Same old, same old.

[Manini]

Toothless as usual 

[cambridgefox]

We aren’t very good are we.

No we’re bloody terrible . This test gone by just after lunch on day 2 

[RowlattsFox]

So how long does Sibley get? Proving once again the step up from county cricket to international tests is huge, particularly if you start away from home. 

[Corky]

Our Test batting is reprehensibly bad.

Up to and including the home series against Pakistan next summer.
