Second Test - England v West Indies (Old Trafford)

[TopCat]

If Buttler doesn’t make a score here, I’d drop him from the one day stuff as well. As punishment for being a useless bastard

Cutting your nose off to spite your face their CL

You seem to be becoming a little bit obsessed with him mind.

I’m taking the piss

 

[Far Tibetan Mountain]

I’m taking the piss

Oh ok.

Question for you

when was the last time that an england number 11 had previously scored a 100?

I remember it happening in the 1991 series v West Indies when the umpire in this match, Richard Illingworth, had (along with the other 10 players) scored a first class century

Windies bowlers being ground down, great batting

not that bad really. Sunday and Monday are set fair

 

[Far Tibetan Mountain]

Woakes, Curran, Bess and even Broad could do some damage they come out swinging too

Broad hasn't been able to bat for a few years now. Scared of getting hit again.

 

[Steak Pie]

Don’t think it irritates people but probably makes them turn their tv to a different channel.

Test cricket isn't for everyone.

 

[Mr Redknapp]

The media have been banging on about needing pace at Old Trafford, I think it's worked out quite well considering how much the ball has moved for the WIndies.

 

[Ghfd]

Sibley out with a reverse

he’s starting to remind me of Tavare who played in a similar style but in limited over stuff for his county, could blast it all around the ground

must admit I’ve not noticed Sibley‘s score in the county game or in t20s or 50 over games

Stokes is going into 5th gear. Stays in, we will have over 400 by end of play

 

[Far Tibetan Mountain]

This is what its all about Ben!

 

[Ghfd]

Wide?

was heading towards first slips left hand

 

[Voice of fair play]

Test cricket isn't for everyone.

Yeah agreed and even less soo when it’s at a snails pace.

 

[Ghfd]

Umpires call?
Close,

 

[TopCat]

Going to be too high again surely

 

[Ghfd]

My eye is in

Going to be too high again surely

Umpires call yet again.

 

[SAFC 2012]

Its a load of shite that mind. If its hitting they should be out

 

[HarrogateMackem]

Windies attack dropping to bits, Sibbers batting them into literal submission.

Making the decision to rotate our bowling attack seem better and better

 

[scotch]

I'd send buttler in next as pope has had his pads on for a day now waiting
