[2nd Test] England v Pakistan (Rose Bowl)

[mackembhoy]

Regardless of whether the Pakistan bowlers are giving there all.

Great time in the middle for two inexperienced players. Hope they both end up not out.

Agreed, nice opportunity to boost their averages

Another missed stumping by Jos.....

 

[Mr Redknapp]

I thought it was harsh to drop Crawley earlier in the summer.

Agreed, nice opportunity to boost their averages

Cricket is not about averages never has been never will, Last thing a player should be thinking in a team game is to boost their personal average.

For what it’s worth IMO it is good practice for them to try something they normally would not do for example Sibley to practice rotating the strike and playing more shots

Go on Crawley

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Go on Crawley

Like Pope, he has a good air about him.

Go on Crawley

Aye, well done

Put Broad in now for the crack

Put Broad in now for the crack

I suggested that earlier

I’d go Pope

Classy players that are the future pope will be one of our best ever

I like what I've seen of Crawley.

Effectively learning his game at test level and hasn't looked shit.

Seems to be progressing with every game. Definitely has something about him and better than his first class average suggests

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

I guess Root needs cricket, but it feels pointless relative to Pope

 

[mackembhoy]

Sibley needs to cut that out.

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

This feels like it’s becoming a theme for Sibley...

 

[Silly Point]

Are these Pakistanis ever not like a box of frogs? Game is completely meaningless and they’re still celebrating wickets like they’ve beaten India in Mumbai

Fair fucks to them though, enjoying the game

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Well bowled that

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Well bowled that

Pope knew he'd been done
