  1. Ah yes, JDT received £15m to spaff on strikers last season. I forgot.
  2. Agree to disagree. They're comfortably the best Test team in the world. They've narrowly beaten us twice. If we played more traditional cricket they'd thump us.
  3. They can only play the cards they're dealt - they haven't been dealt many top-class Test players. Only Root would get in the Aussie XI.
  4. Well, Smith, when he used sandpaper to doctor the ball.
  5. We have a plethora of white ball cricketers trying to play Test cricket as that's been our focus for the last decade - there's a reason Aus can't get close to us in the shorter formats. The vast majority of them are walking wickets - their only chance is to be hyper aggressive and put bowlers off their lines and lengths. We also (partly due to injuries) have no strike bowlers at the moment.
  6. And we were stupid to do so - he couldn't move, they should have york'd him.
  7. This short bowling is really dreadful cricket for the spectator. I thought bodyline had been banned?
  8. Sums up their 'culture', really. Cried about Starc grassing a catch. Gloat about Carey running out a player when the over was over. Lovely stuff.
  9. Makes it up as he goes along this cunt: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/cricket/65033457?ns_mchannel=social&ns_source=twitter&ns_campaign=bbc_live&ns_linkname=64a1636d1babaa614a473d94%26%262023-07-02T11%3A46%3A55.141Z&ns_fee=0&pinned_post_locator=urn:asset:9703c356-0253-4f03-92d6-cd334d5675c3&pinned_post_asset_id=64a1636d1babaa614a473d94&pinned_post_type=share
  10. Imagine cheating to win and celebrating. The Aussies never change so they? It's in their blood.
  11. Honestly we should have sat him in the stiffs for the duration of his contract - we've lost so much money, who cares about £4m (+ salary)?
  12. Sadly they're just much better than us. There's nothing worse than a gloating Aussie sportsman (or commentator!). Thankfully they closed their Institute of Sport so they're shite at most sports now.
  13. I'm not sure what drawing board you're going to - they have better players from 1-11.
  14. Imagine how many pages this thread would be up to if people had some discipline and debated the GKs here rather than in the Transfers thread...
  15. Speaking of Lancashire - they're letting Parkinson and Lamb go at the end of the season. Odd choices those, unless there's been a falling out behind the scenes.
  16. I'm on the fence. I thought Kompany was a poor appointment, but it's all about recruitment at this level. If they spend wisely, Martin will have them at the top of the league.
  17. He has played LB in the past - Mowbray used to put him there.
  18. Oh no, he said the P word. Some posters will be spitting feathers when they read this interview.
  19. You want to see how much NFL jerseys are. I was in Charlotte last year - I walked into the Bank of America club shop thinking they'd perhaps be some deals. They wanted £200+ for a jersey and £80 for a cap.
  20. Interesting that we only briefly saw the back of our fearless leader. This time last year he was all smiles for the cameras.
  21. I'd have liked them both for what Watford paid for Porteous. He's a handy player - albeit we then wouldn't have seen Carter progress like he has, so it's swings and roundabouts.
  22. Poor defeat that for England - gift wrapped the game for Australia. Hopefully Stokes and Baz learn from this - controlled aggression is the way forward. Absolutely no need to short yourself 50 runs with two set batsmen teeing off on an exhausted Australian bowling attack at the end of day one. Also no need for Root / Brooks et al to run past a Lyon ball trying to hit it into the next county.
