[King Kareoke]

he does have a bad back, probably since he's on the pitch every session of a test match

He must be knackered

 

[The Rat]

Root came in on a hatrick ball too

 

[Jack Torrance]

Bumrah loves a no ball

 

[King Kareoke]

9000 test runs take a bow son

 

[scotch]

Root 9,000+ test runs
Imagine how good his batting would be without the captaincy

 

[Jack Torrance]

Root 9,000+ test runs
Imagine how good his batting would be without the captaincy

And if he was able to bat in a decent batting line up instead of coming in at 20/2 every game

Jadeja does as well

thafs why he’s our best ever

people like KP had one of our best ever top 3s before

 

[Mr Redknapp]

thafs why he’s our best ever

people like KP had one of our best ever top 3s before

And he's only 30 .

Think I'd love to see an England team of the last 20 years
Cook
Vaughan
Trott
Root
KP
Stokes
Prior
Flintoff
Swan
Broad
Anderson

Tresco, Strauss, Bell as backup batsman, Bairstow WK, Colly, woakes & Ali as all rounders, Panesar as spinner, Harmison, Hoggard, Jones as bowlers

 

[Mr Redknapp]

9000 runs at the age of 30 is ridiculous, can't get my head around it

He could easily hit 15,000

Cook would have had a chance had he continued but his average would have declined (still be better than our openers now mind, I'd hazard a guess of a mid-high 30's average)

Definitely wouldn’t have Vaughan ahead of either Tresco or Strauss but that as good as it gets

As opener he was the best in the world for 18 months before his knee went

 

[Raker]

Fuck sake

 

[Mr Redknapp]

yep, looks like YJB's foolishness will cost them the game.

 

[hudson88]

Lovely delivery mind

Another nothing score from Buttler - had a great year last year but I wish we got the 1 day buttler playing the Gilchrest style that we were told he was selected for
