Eng vs India - First Test - 20th-24th June

[Ghfd]

Stokesy must be imminent

Durham have Sussex 8 down
.

Bit surprising Shoaib getting an early bowl

 

[Raymondo]

There must be atleast ten spinners in England better than Bashir.

Mustard isn't he

No, he was a wicket keeper.

Name them

 

[Ghfd]

Whips Shoaib off for himself

 

[Eggman]

I know pace isn’t everything and Woakes does well in England but running in here as an opening test match bowler bowling at 78/79mph.

He’s lacking match practice

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Bit ominous this

 

[chopsfc007]

Chopsviz has broken

 

[Dexter]

I get the feeling Tongue just runs up, lets the ball go and hopes for the best with whatever comes out. Bloke has absolutely no control with line or length.

 

[Raymondo]

Name them

Jack Leach
Rehan Ahmed
Jack Carson
Matt Parkinson
Tom Hartley
Zafar Gohar (who has now qualified as English I believe)
Adil Rashid
Archie Vaughan
Liam Dawson

And I’d probably rather see Will Jacks and Liam Livingstone ahead in the pecking order because of their batting and fielding ability.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Technically it looks like his action can go wrong easily or isn't easily repeatable.

Vaughan has barely bowled this season and loads of them aren't

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Ben's had his potty mouth on

 

[Ghfd]

Ducky drop and it really was a dolly

Big

 

[Rammstein]

I get the feeling Tongue just runs up, lets the ball go and hopes for the best with whatever comes out. Bloke has absolutely no control with line or length.

I have to admit I get the impression sometimes that during his run up, Tongue thinks to himself.... along with some of the crowd " ...wonder what this one will do / where it'll go... ? "

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Has got to take that

 

[Raymondo]

Vaughan has barely bowled this season and loads of them aren't

That’s your opinion, but clearly Somerset CCC agree with me.

 

[Ghfd]

.

Especially the rebound giving him a second chance

 

[Black Cat Bob]

Bugger

 

[Raymondo]

Has got to take that

It’s hard to see how we take 9 more wickets on this, I can’t imagine India will make the same mistakes (re: losing 7-41) in this innings that they did in the first.

That’s absolutely pathetic from Rahul.

 

[scotch]

Jack Leach - yes
Rehan Ahmed - no
Jack Carson - yes
Matt Parkinson - no
Tom Hartley - yes with his batting
Zafar Gohar (who has now qualified as English I believe)
Adil Rashid - yes
Archie Vaughan - yes with his batting
Liam Dawson - yes

Biggest test is going to be how long India want to bowl at England and how many runs they want on the board.
I think they'll want 400 and 90 overs
