Northern Red Posted July 6, 2023 Report Share Posted July 6, 2023 You could give Crawley another 30 Tests (and they probably will!) and he'd still be getting out like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fordy62 Posted July 6, 2023 Report Share Posted July 6, 2023 Judge in our case sent the jury out today just after 11am. So bloody considerate. What a day’s cricket… but another what might have been moment if we’d just held onto regulation slip catches. It’s definitely time for Foakes now… but they won’t. Just like Crawley will never ever be dropped. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChippenhamRed Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Bairstow test average: 37 Foakes test average: 32 Not entirely convinced those extra five runs are worth it right now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjak Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Yep how embarassing...especially after the big talk about turning things round, and how fired up we apparently are? We are a sad rabble at times. Unfortunately Australia are showing us up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
