England v New Zealand - 1st Test - Lord's

[Safc98]

Is there any reason why “Baz” and “Keysey” weren’t sacked after we lost to the worst Australian side there’s possibly been since the 70s?

Smith aside I don’t think there has been a particularly poor shot today, it’s good bowling on a spicy pitch.

The Brook shot was understandable.

Yous all must have someone on ignore

Is there another thread?

Might explain why we're losing.

Zak sitting with his feet up laughing his bollocks off

He wouldnt have done any better....glad that Gay isnt the onlyone who failed today

 

[Brett]

He has to go , all of them , but this is more then just the England coaches

We need a full restart of English cricket as it's not working at county level

I wouldn’t trust this lot to put the bins out never mind bat past 130

He did ok, a good delivery to get him out

NZ still need to bat, i think they'll struggle aswell

Nah they’ll get past our expected 125 with relative ease, I expect them to have at least 100 + lead going into our 2nd innings

Didnt notice as presumed this one was started first so would be the thread

Quiz question while we wait

80 players have played 100 or more tests. Only 5 haven’t bowled a single ball, who are they?

3 of them are keepers. However plenty of keepers have bowled

I think Bairstow must be one.

You’re right.

 

[The Breen Machine]

You’re right.

I have a feeling Thorpe may have bowled at some point as there was a brief time in 96 where he was getting some overs in ODI's.

Dravid?

Thorpe bowled. Dravid has a wicket!

 

[Hetty]

Alec Stewart?

 

[The Breen Machine]

Thorpe bowled. Dravid has a wicket!

I can't imagine Dravid bowling!

Going back to keepers, Healy?

 

[Hetty]

9 down

They didn't think that was out
