1st Test (Leeds) - 20th June

[Johan]

Surrey vs Middlesex coming up, hopefully that's a better contest than this one.

hopefully on a pitch that isn't flatter than 2017 Ashes Melbourne

 

[kevinw]

You want 2021 back?

I don't really care tbh. It's been an era of hot and cold, probably no better or worse results wise.

 

[King Kane]

Pant isn't playing for stumps, he is swinging for stumps.

 

[The_Rey]

You want 2021 back?

Yes please. Over these arrogant shitesters

 

[andruid]

Areal captain's knock from Gill

 

[Johan]

Have you seen our batting!?

Need to apply yourself to make 500+. We just slog, shrug our shoulders, mutter something about "vibes" and hit the driving range

on this pitch probably even Pakistan can make 500+ ngl

guess people really did forget 1 of 20.

 

[Primrose_D12]

Heck of a day for India.

I think part of that is because England's bowling has been trash, but I'm not entirely sure of that one.

Stokes has questions to answer

We can ask him if he was a battering ram in his previous life?

At least we played properly and respected the game and the paying public. This lot just **** up continually then run off giggling like its a massive joke

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

Flat track but this is a pretty insipid bowling "attack" from England. Needs serious conditions to pose a threat.

talk about an overreaction.

But England won't. Remember, we have a Bumrah

Yeah this is the kind of wicket where Bumrah gets dusted and run into the ground.

 

[Molehill]

Stokes has questions to answer

Well he was comfortably the best bowler, which is clearly a concern in itself. Desperate decision to bowl first, but the 3 seamers were rubbish. It was calling out for someone to target top of off consistently but they did away with him as he doesn’t fit in!!

 

[PlayerComparisons]

Kuldeep should have been picked smh

 

[capt_Luffy]

Yeah this is the kind of wicket where Bumrah gets dusted and run into the ground.

Bumrah's the type of bowler I will count to get wickets in concrete pitches. This one's got movement, the bet's On

 

[ashley bach]

Only 5 overs lost!! @Molehill

you do realise that you need spicy pitches for 25 in 3 to remotely be possible?
