Australia, India have rigged this in addition to having all the cards in their favour so I'd be happy to see them fail

Much as it pains me to see the Aussies win anything I am in their corner. The way the Indians have steam rollered the rest of world cricket financially in recent times is not good for the game in the long run.

If there is one Aussie it’s hard to feel sorry for its Smith, why on earth did he not review that.:confused:

Have to say though, it is one hell of a stadium.

Looks like TNT have got the India/England test series. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/cricket/...98a9b09aa8c2d8
Always seems to be last minute with India tv rights, waiting to see who'll blink/pay the most . Maybe the Indian board did when they realised nobody might take it.

Playing only 1 fast bowler? It's not as if our spin options are any good.

I am a Lancashire member and I wouldn’t have Tom Hartley anywhere near my red ball team.:rolleyes:

Brilliant team selection ;)
India's 'bunsen burner' wicket back fires on them !

No plan b if spaz ball doesn't work. Plus the useless chump keeps losing the toss, he must do better at that.

Not surprised given Indian wickets in the past.

At last Joe Root realised he was playing test cricket and not T20.:

Interesting weather forecast for the next Test.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/1272832
Sleet and 1c on the first day, why are they playing in the himalayas? Bit like Headingley in April.

Strictly not English cricket but I didn't want to start a thread for a quick question. I am down at my brothers in Surrey after my immensely enjoyable trip to Wembley yesterday. He is watching the IPL Finals so I had to watch as well. Can anyone tell me what the little 'tree' symbols that change to dot balls and back to trees on the onscreen graphics are supposed to symbolise?

Dear me, thanks for that, a minor thing but it was really bugging me.

T20 WC, has started of with USA v Canada in Dallas. Bizarre.

A lot of swinging, missing and a very confused crowd....

Re: English Cricket
 
There are more people on the pitch than in the stands for the first West Indies game. The stands are deserted.:rolleyes:

PS. Perhaps time for a new 2004 cricket thread? ;)

The US game was packed , they played it like baseball and won. They could be a surprise package.

Should we still call it English cricket or just have general cricket thread?

What you picked/created seems fine. :)
