Brook looking set again

[Aidan11]

Not watching this one, what does a good score look like?

Duckett just out and score is 238/6.

At one point we look on for 450. Now I'd take 300.

Melvin Betts supplied my mate with freebie tickets so I will never have anything but huge respect for the man and his cruelly under rated career

Thanks all. I’m off for me Sunday dinner hopefully Livingstone can stay with ducky until the end of innings

We could well be bowled out by the time you’re tucking into the Spotted Dick and Custard

 

[Aidan11]

Hope we haven't lost any more since Duckett.

I'm back on the Durham game now.

 

[Ghfd]

Dinner demolished as England have been, since Brook got out

Head getting three wickets , give me strength

 

[Aidan11]

Hope we're not going to collapse now Brook is out.

I should have guessed it was inevitable.

 

[Ghfd]

We got over 300 at least , and it was great to see Rash get a few

Should have been 350 but hopefully with potentially four spin options, they can do what head, Maxwell and to a lesser extent zampa achieved

Yeah I think we've done all right despite the collapse.

I don't think Australia will find it easy here.

I’m worried about a DLS coming into play. Hopefully we can get them 6 down before they get 200

 

[Aidan11]

Aussie openers are enjoying themselves so far.

After the t20 World Cup , I thought the hunch of Jacks bowling in any power play would not be seen again

Yet again he went the journey and there was no need at all to risk it again today

Head being dismissed by Carse’s first ball bloody well proves that

 

[Ghfd]

Excellent Pottsy my lad

They are well ahead of DLS though , so we need a few more sharpish

Housery

Start the car/bus/aeroplane.

 

[Aidan11]

Can't see them getting back on now. Aussies ahead on DLS.

My big worry today , we needed to try and conserve wickets .

 

[Salem Street South]

For me the game turned on Jamie Smith not giving himself a chance to get in. Shame cos he's been brilliant all summer.

Also, if we bat the overs out, this would likely have been a draw.

Can’t see any match thread for the ODI today

Because you've got the author on ignore. We can see it and two match threads is annoying.

This is not really a match thread

That other thread was started one minute after the game finished last week.

I’m constantly warned, deleted and banned whenever I post on that persons threads, so in agreement with a moderator I placed them on ignore and will no longer contribute on any of the threads started by them

No one is forced to read my stuff as they can place me on ignore and concentrate elsewhere

I don’t want to be banned any more

Well this damp squib of an ending feels like a very fitting way to end this summer of cricket & sums it all up quite nicely.

Exactly . We had the benefit at CLS but the Aussies had more of an advantage today, especially when they got a great start by bowling jacks in a power play

That was ridiculous
