Captain... Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Time for Prior to show us all why he still should be playing. Big pressure. Yup, big innings for Prior, Root has showed he can stick around slowly accumulating, but needs Prior and Stokes to stay with him, both are capable but haven't looked comfortable this series so far.
Bobby Hundreds Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Stokes has got an average of 2 from his last nine or ten innings.
Narborough_fox Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Time for Prior to stand up and be counted. Root will stick around for a while yet, just needs someone to stick around with him. On a side note, big fan of this 'Sachin Tendulkar: One in a billion' thing that Sky are doing at the minute. What a player he was.
Grandad. Posted 21 July 2014 Author Posted 21 July 2014 Well Ben Stokes, please do something that will make you remembered.
RowlattsFox Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Might take someone just going out there and giving it whack. I can't see us batting the day so we need to try and get the runs quickly. Stokes and broad can both play attacking shots.

Stokes and broad can both play attacking shots. Well there's no chance of the latter standing there with a straight bat and taking the shine off the new ball. Go **** yourself Ben Stokes. And you will be dropped for the next Test I expect.
Guest MattP Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 This is appalling, brain dead cricket. No patience.
Leeds_Fox95 Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 I think we have the most brainless, idiotic team in test cricket. Absolute joke. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Narborough_fox Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Jordan should be playing ahead of Stokes. Jordan did absolutely nothing wrong against Sri Lanka, and showed some form with the bat, but gets dropped for Stokes who hasn't done anything with the bat at all in his recent international performances.
RowlattsFox Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 What did Chris Jordan do wrong again? Stokes has bowled ok but batting has been abysmal. Was a faint hope but game over now.
Leeds_Fox95 Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 It just makes my blood boil..our lower middle order haven't got a brain cell to share between them, and on the flip side, Ishant, who happens to be one of the most pathetic quick bowlers in world cricket, is picking up wickets in a lords test match, we're making him look good, and all he's doing is bowl short middle paced FILTH! Fxck off England, and fxck off India, you can both go and **** yourselves. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Swarles Barkley Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Root you fvcking dipshît donke... Oh forget it
marko Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Words fail me. No doubt Cook will take a bashing, but he's not been helped at all by his senior bowlers and some of the worst batting you'll ever see.
Guest MattP Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 How can you be a professional cricketer and try and pull against the Lords slope after 4-5 balls?
Swarles Barkley Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 I thought stokes was a big animal lover... But he said he only likes ducks
Vacamion Posted 21 July 2014 Posted 21 July 2014 Thing is, if Moeen Ali had either ducked or worn one just before lunch, I'd have really fancied England. Mindless since lunch.
