Woakes - announces international retirement

[TheRey]

In the OP's defence, I goaded him to doing it as an act of reverse-psychology

Would've been better if it was Tongue Finished!

 

[Mr Redknapp]

Would've been better if it was Tongue Finished!

Tongue was piercing them

 

[Ottery]

Looked absolutely toothless in this Test. He can NOT, under any circumstances, go to Aus

Only as a convict

 

[Ghfd]

I once did a Crawley finished thread , that appears to have disappeared

He’ll end up playing over a 100 tests

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

morning all

 

[TheRey]

I want this thread to keep going and going FWIW

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Woakes

 

[Ghfd]

Bowled well today and was robbed of one this morning not playing a shot hitting the pad

The exact same ball took the wicket this afternoon bowled

 

[Ghfd]

.

The bell is starting to toll

 

[Aidan11]

He'll see out this series but I can't see him going to Oz.

 

[VenisonsMullet]

He'll see out this series but I can't see him going to Oz.

Hope you are right on the second point

 

[TheRey]

More toothless than a feckin nursing home.

 

[jaxaxe]

Washed

 

[Mr Redknapp]

He's past it on the evidence of this series but it's also un-English conditions for him so that's what makes it hard to judge

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Beaut that

 

[Ghfd]

Unlucky not for a second

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

He’s gonna knack the Aussies

 

[Ghfd]

3 for 84 today

Very hard work for the lad and twice unlucky on lbws reviews

 

[vinegar hill]

Is he honestly a better bet than Matty Potts?

 

[Eggman]

Is he honestly a better bet than Matty Potts?

Yes. Better bat, more experienced Test Match bowler
