*Official* West Indies Tour of England 2020

[Pothas]

No Cook, he really was never particularly slow.

 

[Daemon]

This is going to prove to be brutal for the Windies in the third innings and even the third test.

 

[TestMatch]

I'd bring Brathwaite on now to bowl to Sibley.

 

[trundler]

So frustrating

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I'd bring Brathwaite on now to bowl to Sibley.

I will not be surprised if the umpires calls him for chucking

 

[Bijed]

No Cook, he really was never particularly slow.

Yeah, whilst he wasn't exactly Viv, Cook being kinda boring and limited always makes me think of him as slow when really he was probably just on the slower end of normal

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Test cricket at its best here...lots of dangling and near-misses.
Blue balling.

 

[wpdavid]

Two runs needed. Keith Fletcher's 329 ball record is probably safe.

 

[Starfighter]

Love these big inswingers from Roach.

 

[BoyBrumby]

I will not be surprised if the umpires calls him for chucking

Not sure they even can anymore?

But his action is rancid though.

 

[Pothas]

Not sure they even can anymore?

But his action is rancid though.

Yeah they definitely won't.

Not really sure what the rules are though. If someone just decides to chuck it without even pretending?

 

[trundler]

Yeah, whilst he wasn't exactly Viv, Cook being kinda boring and limited always makes me think of him as slow when really he was probably just on the slower end of normal

The lack of footwork probably contributed too. Slow is probably an SR of <45... which is 10 more than Boycott managed apparently.

 

[Starfighter]

Yeah they definitely won't.

Not really sure what the rules are though. If someone just decides to chuck it without even pretending?

They can only report him. He was actually reported before but passed.

 

[Howe_zat]

Yeah, whilst he wasn't exactly Viv, Cook being kinda boring and limited always makes me think of him as slow when really he was probably just on the slower end of normal

He could be really slow if he got out early, if he made a hundred he'd usually have plenty of square boundaries in there.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Don't warn him, let him run where he likes now we have runs on the board.

 

[Groundking]

Top stuff Sibley, keep going let's grind them into the dust.

 

[wpdavid]

And there it is. Very well done.

 

[Starfighter]

Well, it's taken long enough.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Get in Sibley, great stuff.

 

[Pothas]

7 threes. That seems a lot.
