It'll be on Sky’s YouTube if you want to see it. Broken record I know but Sky’s cricket coverage is outstanding. I agree those segments being shown during rain breaks have been outstanding. For anyone not seen it, 'The Edge' is worth a watch https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9780416/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted August 17, 2020 Report Share Posted August 17, 2020 Nasser saying how Taunton has helped English spinners in Leach and Bess and Athers backing it up in a time when the cupboard is bare..... are you ****ing kidding me?! We get punished because we produced pitches which help English spinners and Sky commentators saying its helping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbored Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 England are doing pretty well under his captaincy. Crawley with his maiden test century and Buttler scoring well. 303 - 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolman_Stand Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 2 hours ago, TomF said: They’ll drop Burns and shove Crawley to open probably I agree, think the long term batting solution is Sibley Crawley Root Stokes Lawrence Pope Buttler After that the bowlers are in unbelievable competition with eachother and there will be a bit of horses for courses at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Tired shot that from Jos. Declaration at 600 or overnight whichever comes first? Probably gives us two days (considering the weather forecast) to bowl them out twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said the forecast was poor before the initial start time (weren't far off tbh) so starting early may not have worked, whereas the forecast for after the due close of play looks better so they're planning for added time at the end.

wayne allisons tongues Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Think he will get to 600 today and after the test announce his retirement. Just think he won’t fancy bowling in India this winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
