Re: Cricket
Also think that Bairstow should be in the side given Buttlers recent scores. Having said that it was an awful shot Bairstow played to get out.

Re: Cricket
Talk about putting the mockers on it, India bowled this lot out for peanuts a couple of days ago. Mind you it is a classic Oval 'shirt front'.

Re: Cricket
Well apart from the injury scares and Roy's continued failures a decent start, the bowling will need to up its game though.

We still won though and as Brian Clough once said there is room for improvement.

Re: Cricket
What on earth is that weird Perspex doofer the umpire has strapped to his wrist?
EDIT. Apparently it is an arm protector.

Re: Cricket
Hope we don't take it easy on the Aussies on Saturday. Putting them on the plane home would 'set the tone' for the Ashes this winter

Reading too much into the future is a unwise thing to do as it often backfires more then you can imagine.

Re: Cricket
Stunning result on the cards at The Oval, looks like India or South Africa will be on their way home.
