5th test the oval

[scotch]

Anything that gets flicked fine enough will go for 4 off the hips/leg anyway.
Just hate genuine edges going for easy boundaries rewarding the batsman

Seems rain has arrived

Could do with it raining for another 90 overs at this rate

 

[Hetty]

Well just a sheet atm

 

[scotch]

Bizarre Wood not bowling at Khawaja

 

[Classic94]

A very dull session.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Pitch looks to be doing absolutely nothing to help the bowlers

 

[Deleted member 7993]

These are going to get the target at a stroll unless Devine intervention

We could have done with her when we were batting !

 

[Hetty]

So they're waiting for the ball to be just right for Wood to bowl

 

[sonson]

Every final innings when there's been a chase on, both sides have looked like they're just hoping for batsmen to make a mistake pretty much

So they're waiting for the ball to be just right for Wood to bowl

That sounded like what the pundits were saying, we’ll see. If this is true are Eng overthinking this?

 

[Ghfd]

There's pills for that

 

[Paddy O'Dors]

The Oval looks a right hotch potch at the pavilion end. Just bits stuck on here and there.

 

[scotch]

Jimmy after lunch

 

[essex boy]

Cos he hasn't taken the new ball in tests since 2015.

Did he even do it for Durham. I doubt it.

Wood is a professional cricketer not someone learning how to bowl. Khawaja is a borderline bunny for him

 

[Dexter]

Wood is 100% injured. There’s no way you don’t bring him on in the first 30 overs when the opposition haven’t lost a wicket otherwise.

 

[Hetty]

Wood would get the crowd up, it's flat
Wood getting loose

 

[hudson88]

Stuck F1 on. Hopefully get a couple of wickets whilst I watch this for 15 minutes until Verstappen gets back up to 1st

 

[tenpins]

Oof

 

[Hetty]

WOWZERS

 

[Bears Beets]

We’re going nowhere here

 

[Brett]

This is painful
