Still a bit worried about us being 3 or 4 wickets down before we even get past their total, regardless of whether they post a lead of 30, 40, 50 or more.

I have enjoyed watching England take wickets this morning, but it is a farce really. Is this even a game of skill on this pitch? There needs to be a minimum standard when preparing pitches. I get the fact all home teams produce pitches to suit themselves - thats fine - but bowling on a beach handball pitch just makes Test cricket look stupid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_BCFC Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I actually think if Root concentrated on bowling he would be really really handy. Clearly just an all-round good sportsman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
