2nd Test (Edgbaston) - July 2nd

[Daemon]

Guess this cancels one of the Woakes ones

 

[capt_Luffy]

****!! It was like half an inch!

 

[King Kane]

Brook gets away with one, it looked high to me though so a fair enough call.

With the way he's batting though they could get another chance quite soon.

 

[slowfinger]

i thought that was an inside edge to be fair

The one today was hitting more of the stumps than the Woakes ones.

Root 5*
Brook 5*

At the drinks break

 

[Red_Ink_Squid]

The one today was hitting more of the stumps than the Woakes ones.

But with less majesty.

 

[Johan]

3-33 @SillyCowCorner1

After 3 years of transforming our Cricket, we are back there, 3 out for nothing, Joe Root or Inshallah

 

[slowfinger]

we're not even Bazballing in this innings

maybe that is the problem

 

[Agonizingly Awkward]

33-3 @ashley bach @SillyCowCorner1

 

[Daemon]

Nass again peddling nonsense about DRS and the margin for error.

Umps call is ridiculous.

“Hey lets have a system that’s more accurate than humans to correct errors from said humans. But just when it’s the closest and toughest for humans to make an accurate judgement, we’ll trust what they say instead!”

 

[SkyBlue]

Being in Bumrah's shadow is not easy

It's like the rest of our bowling attack almost expect Bumrah to bowl a magic spell each time to bail them out

Good to see guys like Siraj stepping up and taking responsibility

I'm still not convinced by Prasidh and having a left armer like Arshdeep would've been useful in these conditions. Gotta think horses for courses at times rather than looking at stats.

 

[GIMH]

Don't forget that India were morally 27/3 too

This is actually a great point

 

[sayon basak]

Joe Root or Inshallah

Wrong use of the word.

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

maybe that is the problem

They're trying, just getting out in the process. Law of averages, etc.

 

[Arachnödouche2.0]

How does Pant let that go through? Terrible.

 

[slowfinger]

more awful keeping from Pant

good thing he averages over 40 with the bat

 

[Daemon]

Root is so good at rotating strike. Must be annoying af to bowl to him.

 

[capt_Luffy]

How many no balls can you bowl in a spell?

Akash and Siraj: YES

So much for Bumrah or bust, I thought India were no chance when he got rested but so far your other pace bowlers have stepped up to fill his boots.

A long way to go yet though.
