Re: English Cricket
That's a weird one 15 overs left , 6 wickets to win and we call it a draw ! Very sporting of us 
5 overs left then maybe... Lazy gits !

Yep, I'd have left it till there was 5 balls left and 6 wickets needed ( and then I'd be taking a risk about run outs off no balls !  )

Re: English Cricket
Well that was certainly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory by the Aussies.

Re: English Cricket
Why bring Root back in, he was out of touch in all of his recent innings. Dawid Malan must be spitting feathers. And Roy has had no cricket for ages either.

Roy and Root have been totally useless in this series, a huge blunder by the selectors.

Re: English Cricket
Terribly sad news coming from the world of cricket as Australian cricketing legend Dean Jones has died suddenly.
