I'm an alcoholic
>you rarely see that kind of emotion from StokesKerry, mate, you good?

Thank you, baker.
both dog shit garbage tier threads but at least this one mentions that it's the ashes
thanks bake
>>152554624haha was just thinking that
This is the thread
DAMMIT I WENT FOR A SMOKE AND MISSED THE WICKET

>Josh TongueGood Worcestershire lad. Got that Pears spirit.
>>152554639That's always the way, leafbro.
stokes is a good cunt shame he didnt get the hundo
>>152554650SO trueOne of the most erudite posts I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing on /cric/Suspect you're an Albertan
JUST BAZ IT
Conway 300 likely with the way Windies are bowling
"Three slips in for Tongue" Most perfectly salacious sport ever.
Is the pitch dead as fuck or are we just bowling like shit? Haven't been watching.
Name one good ginger leader…
Stokes red hot passion for cricket vs Archers lazybones attitude
>>152554681Michael Voss
the idea of feeling sorry for Stokes because of his weakmind team is laughablehe made 80-odd at a snail strike rate on a literal road, he's on the same level as Khawaja
>5 (10)>50 (100)
>>152554681Julia Gillard
Kinda wish stokes got bowled by Lyon with marn chirping at him every ball. Probably woulda cooked him haha
>>152554680It's Adelaide - absolute road for the first 3 days. That teams have only scored ~350 each is due to bad batting.
Is /cric/ a sport for bunda lovers?
>convicts can't handle the bantsJust like their engshitters dads
>>152554705nice bait
>Cummings to ToungeSounds like a porno search desu
>>152554716True but Starc should have had that lbw if the on field ump wasn't blind
>>152554724Yes
>>152554705oh fuck off Julia if I wanted a greasy red box I'd go to KFC
>>152554692If he went at a normal bazball strikerate of 80 England would have a first innings lead.
>>152554724Corrrr
Imagine being in the engshitter top order and watching Joffy A score more runs than you. Truly a hopeless island race
HIS LAND
>>152554740>I wanted a greasy red box I'd go to KFCTop kek

>>152554738Amazing the difference a bowler hat makes.
>>152554760the best part about our black is that he's white
He's a nicker
Did the TNT bloke just say Jason Gillespie has another wicket? kekYeh all abos look the same
khawaja would've dropped that
Amount of runs scored by Eng born players this innings?
some of the bunnings girls are really cute bros
>>152554797Any way I can get the Aussie commentary? I'm sick of this idiot.

>>152554797He was referring to the commentator's curse
Good news, by the way. I'm on days off so I get to get on the beers and enjoy the cricket. Sleep schedule is fixed.
>>152554860Ahh.... ok then
Honourary Hindu HISland
>>152554860don't think it's a curse if gillespie's presence results in bog wickets
>>152554833>>152554845Cheers lads. Can't decide whether this bloke or the Sheila is worse.
>trying to watch the ashes>literally every minute or two, nz coverage is interrupted with a 30 second at breakfucking lol, nz really can't do anything right. might move to india
>>152554893They should really have a separate board.
>>152554915Because he's black?/s
>>152554893Is that touring teams only? Or no Australians with a 5fer in 20 years?Double checked Warne's 2006-7 game was only a 4 wicket innings.
>>152554892If there's no radio comm i'll just mute the stream and listen to music instead fuck ads
>>152554915For NZ? yeh but diversity and all that.
Extras off to a flyer
>be a fearsome fast bowler>bowl mid 130s deliveries for no balls and byes
Good first over this
uh ohArcher crashing out
>>152554968Some one get that ginger overseer to have a word with him.
>>152554944Yeah they have it separate
>more than half of australias runs are from sundriesgrim
>>152554892daddyhd.com/watch.php?id=369
Why doesn't Archer simply bowl fast when there's something going on?
>>152554973He has spent the last 3 hours batting in 40 degree heat. Never had a chance to rest.
>>152555000>double tripscorr
>>152555000Lovely digits.
>>152555003Two and a half hours batting right before break eats up a fair bit of stamina.
>weatherSHIT
vro...
Archer's is just tired after his gruelling 50
ARSE
oh come on
>>152555015whose fault is that? he could have bazzed a bit harder, scored the same number of runs and got out earlier
>Weatherald - 1BAH GAWD, THAT'S KHAWAJA MUSIC.
not sure about where that was pitching
alright its settled weatherlads shit whats this kellaway cunt like
didn't think these umps had a finger
Refer that wtf
Lmao convicts should've reviewed that pitched well outside leg
>its a road
GONEGOTTEMFUCK OFF
>Pitched outside legKekekekekDidn't want to waste a review as a new player in the team.
umping has been shocking for this test
>refuses to review even knowing that the 3rd ump has been rigging things for aus all seriesspirit or cricket or mental retardation?
>it was pitching outside leg
>>152555075nice thread you made before lol
Should still be lbw if it pitches outside, it's not the 50s anymore.
>arse appealing when its not out
Going down leg.
Khawaja is actually decent though. I know he’s a twat, but yeah, he’s still better than shitters like Konstas and Weatherald.
>>152555120worked for him earlier in the over
what the fuck chat
>>152555084on field umps have been rigging against aus>pitch outside leg>out>pitch on leg, smashing into leg>not out
Weathershit not reviewing that just because he's the new guy just shows the class divide that exist within western societies
>imagine losing the 3rd test from this position all because god has decided that bribing the snicko guy is a bit ordinary?that would be embarrassing.
>spirit OR cricket OR mental retardationCricket.
REVIEW ITFUCKEN PLUMB
Really dislike that they don't do the full hawkeye after showing it pitched outside leg. Want to know if it would've hit the stumps.
>>152555152Tard
>>152555106>convict gives it out>can't take it backPujars will always be the father of convicts
>>152555141bribing the on field umps was the smarter strategy from the poms, first port of call after all
>mum found the pujar
>>152555152Would've been going down leg and not in an Umpire's Review close kind of way.
Shitjeet banter is just repeating what others say about him
152555152it was missing by quite a bit
>>152555174:)
corrfinkin' wemay win diss test
Don't worry convicts the fraud Steve Shith will save you oh wait lmao
same ump who gave Starc's delivery cannoning into leg stump not out, btw
Walking is an Aussie trait. Poms are incapable of not reviewing. We have to learn to be better at rigging
>>152555221mental what passes for masculinity in poostralia
>>152555141You guys litterally came out better from the third umpiring this matchSmith got a life earlierRoot got a free life
>>1525552212xIn a rowIn your back yardDharmawashed you convicts 4-zip at home as well kek
>>152555253can't all look like gus atkinson
>>152555254mate, i don't make the rules, you better take it up with god.
>>152555264I hope they can make it three in a row!oh wait
The great Cheteshwar Pujara has won more test series against convicts than Nathan Lyon's kids have had hot dinners
>>152555097The utter state of that, fucking hell. Shambles from everyone involved.

>>152555567DESIGNATED SHITTING RUG
Cant wait for the inevitable 400+ target to poolapse to a 200 run loss.
>>152555609no human poo looks like that
Think shitjeet should off himself tbqhwy

Peewees are choking. Being held up by Hindu /strongmind/ Rachin
>>152555658Its the exact same situation as perth but flipped so the opposite of thatDespite england having 10 overs of jofra being good and 0 othwr bowling Australia might fuck themselves again like weatherald already has
>Its another episode of gmoot making the captcha torture to try and scam 4chan passes out of people
Century old mens competition, dumb cunt placed front and center. You do not hate the scum behind "diversity" nearly enough.

>>152556138Why are subcons so bad against NZ?
line and length
seamin'
>>152556180it's cos the kiwis are always calling things black. the ethnics think that the kiwis want to bum them. they probably do too.
sad that jakey didn't think he was worth a review, low self esteem
>Boland has a higher batting average than every Englishman sans Root
What happened to the Kiwis posting 800?
my plasma screen tv can't pick up channel 7 through the antenna
>>152556406Sounds like your plasma needs to get down to the gym a bit hey haha xD
>>152556406you need a set top box anon
>Reviewing a ball that wasn't hit and bounced a foot in front of the keeperCowardly review by Stokes.
these umps are cooked
same old england always cheating
>>152556440it was another free umpire review
Same old england, always cheating! TNT's pom commentators aren't calling their team cheats like they did yesterday for Australia hmm.
2-0 is the most dangerous lead
>umpire inserting finger into player's eye>fair and neutralyou've got to be kidding me
shan't be letting a brown touching my eye
>>152556447>>152556454>>152556478>>152556485you lot a worse than jews with all the victim culture.
>hope he's washed his handsI'm glad Isa said it before I did
>>152556512literally england the first 2 days. zero self-awareness
do you think marnus has got a handle on calculus?
>>152556536you clearly bribed the snicko guy, that was glaringly obvious.
>>152556574and you've bribed the blokes on the ground. take your free wicket and your free reviews and neck up
>>152556138>russell crowe doesn't have two double centurieswhat a failure
STOP working RIGHT NOW
>>152556485Why are you watching TNT?
>>152556592>bribed the blokes on the ground.nah them fat cunts are just phoning it in since all the tech has come out. they can't even read a light meter or put a ball through a hole any more. billy bowden was the last half decent umpire.
carse to head
It's over
nothing on it
>England chesting againLmao
>>152556574Mustn't have got the memo over the Jamie Smith review, dumb prick rigged it the wrong way
>Inch away from the ballWe'll have a review, thanks.
SAME OLD ENGLANDALWYS CHEATING
Reminder that was Wetherald's last ever test innings
Snicko has done it again!
>>152556478Was it actually an umpire review? Thought it was a player review.
We'll have a pooview thanks.>>152556639The legal stream was giving me trouble in the first test so I went back to the site I use for other series and it works perfectly.
Would really appreciate it if they could get NZ or SA umpires for the ashes. not racist just want a timeless look
>>152556732It was an umpire review. The third ump says "We have an umpire review for a fair catch"
>>152556689>>152556711please stop phoneposting
>>152556732This one now was a player review. The other one was an umpire review.>>152556756England should just agree to let Reiffel come back to do Ashes.
Stokes is losing the plot with his team
love when there's a big appeal and the umpire has no fucking idea so he walks over to the square leg umpire and then they send it upstairs for a review on the guise of being uncertain whether the ball carried or not when that's clearly not the issue they're having
>>152556807i don't think he's secure in his sexuality.
>>152556766I am at work m8What the fuck do you want me to do?
>>152556807Smith bloody knew that wasn't a wicket.
*snorts*
>>152556823ThisUmps just need to man the fuck up and force a team to review if they think they got undone by
shawty get shawty get inspired how bout dat
Why is a kiwi mutt the captain again?
Stokes is gonna blow a gasket but honestly he is probably rightfully pissed at his team.
*uses a carriage service to harass, stalk or intimidate*
isn't jaffa a racial slur?
England will be fucked 30 overs in just don't poolapse until then
>>152556871in stargate SG1?
>batting patiently under pressure with the new ballCowardly, cowardly stuff.
>>152556871Probably in Finland.
>>152556783>let Reiffel come back to do Ashes.His DRS overturn rate recently was pretty bad.
jofra archer gassed already? loser
*leaves*
>>152556938come back soon mate
was prime aleem dar the only ever good non-white umpire?
>>152556885fuck off millennial, you're too old for this site
>>152554681Jesus Christ
noob question, is there a "pitch timer" like in baseball where the bowler has to deliver within a certain amount of time i can't tell
>>152556903Enough about Englands 1st innings
>>152556946well i think steve bucknor was the 2nd best non white, an he was terrible.
Tongue bros our time is here
>>152556971there's an expected over rate which can be fallen behind
>>152556737Fair enough, the TNT coverage is terrible. Usually TNT just do a deal with Fox and show the Fox Sports coverage for all the other series in Australia that isn't the ashes. Would much prefer that they just piggy backed off the Fox coverage for this series too. Terrible.BT sport did a good job in 2017-18, they had Vaughan, Ponting, Boycott, Hussey, etc. This year has been terrible.
>>152556946I actually rate this Nitin Menin or whatever the fuck he's calledSeems to get a lot rightThe fat fuck at the other end is garbage thoughever
>>152556971there's an over rate for the day. but nobody gives a fuck about it any more.
>>152556985surprised to see kumar dharmesena rated so highlyalways had shockers whenever i've watched him
>>152554893Hoggard fair dinkum
Oh, you follow cricket, do you?What's Usman's surname, correctly spelt, not looking it up?
>>152556969Left-Arm Orthodox Spin.
>>152557019carwasher
>>152556995>>152557003so if it's for the whole day, the over rate i mean, you could have a stretch of bowlers just take their time and rest and make up for it later?
>>152557019I... I can't...
>>152556971>is there a "pitch timer"No. It's much like old school baseball.
>>152557019khwhwaja
>>152557011umpiring cricket is a lost art since 2010 just like how the mutts forgot to build saturn Vs.
every cunts misso and mumza on cricinfo today
>>152557032Yep. Spin's often utilised to catch up on a lagging over rate from earlier in the day
fuck Alyssa Healy is an annoying cunt
>>152557057Frodo ass nigga Clarke
>>152557057ginge bros filling out the podium
>>152557032>you could have a stretch of bowlers just take their time and rest and make up for it later?they might do that if anything actually happened for them not making the over rate. as i said though everybody just pretends that it isn't a real rule.
>>152557060that makes sense. ive watched some cricket before but im not an expert obviously. who's englands spinner? i thought i heard the commentator mention that they dont have one, or a good one at least
>>152557071Starc can do so much betterNo homo
>>152557071keep your mind on the match Mitch
just put a za in the oven can someone remind me to go check it in about 10 minutes cheers
>>152557087Will Jacks but he's more of an all-rounder than a pure spinner like Lyon
>>152557071becky ives is far more annoying but at least she's not on as much. do you think starc's a bender an she's a beard?
Starc is a pockmarked lanklet who refuses to take IPL coinhe should take what he can get
>>152557108he just has first root syndrome
>>152557087Will Jacks, but he's a part timer.If Australia really needed to make up overs they'd put a part timer like Labuschagne in.
>>152557085so if they are pretending it isnt a real rule why not just take a shit ton of time if you're behind and force a draw. well i know its a 5 day affair so you'd have to waste a lot of time, but an extra like 10-15 seconds every delivery would add upim not saying england should force a draw now im just asking in general
have to go to dinner tonight at my aunty's. cousin and her bf is in town
>>152557119does he really not play in IPl? is he racist?
>>152557081lol
I have only had sex with 3 women including the misso
>>152557104>>152557131thanks for the info
>>152557155in the 40s for me but ive never had a gf
This is a community of sexually frustrated white men
>TNT commentary loves the current tactics when they almost get a wicket>TNT commentary hates the current tactics when they get hit for runsECB might be more predatory than the BCCI
I need to do a POO POObut I'm holding it in
>>152557135>why not just take a shit ton of time if you're behind and force a draw.they get tole if they try shit like that. but on the first few days the only people that get fucked are spectators an nobody gives a fuck about them once they've handed over the dough.
Australia are 129-1. We're fucked.
>>152557135umpires can give a five run penalty at their discretionthey'd just penalise the bowling team until they lost
>>152557181im not white
im an unemployable angry loner
>>152557208250 is doable. not by these retards though.
Do we think frankie mackay or alyssa healy is more ugly?
>>152557236Based.
i've had sex with four womenone fat white australiaone japaneseone chineseone hapa
>>152557236based Mr. Stokes
Will Jacks get another century?
>>152557242That's not even a question bro. One of them is basically a man.
>>152557270yes
>>152557257hapa was the best im betting
>>152557257not incl prozzies ive only had sex with women taller than me (im 5'10)
>>152554596
>>152557242that's a tough one mutt. seriously.
>>152557101Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
>>152557280yescrazy bitch
>>152557289thanks m8. needs a few more
another noob questionseems like its all pace bowlers and 1 spinner, was it always like that? why not multiple spinners if they're goodor did they just figure out the meta over the years, well i guess decades, is pace bowling is better
>>152557242Alyssa Healy isn't bad looking
>Alyssa Healy will be bringing her expert insight & commentary to both Melbourne and SydneyFuck me..
>>152557317jobs for the girls
>>152557309depends where you're playing. more spin bowlers in the subcontinent (besides pak), more pace bowlers everywhere else
>>152557309spinners don't have to exert themselves as much as a pace bowler so they can bowl a lot more overstherefore a team with heaps of spinners isn't generally required nor selected
>>152557330is that just a climate thing or the way they set up the fieldcouldnt you just set up every field to benefit spinners if you have good ones
>>152557310i dint think you were allowed on social media in the pavilion mitch?
>>152557309The West Indians have used all fast bowlers in the past. But it depends on the country, if you go to Sri Lanka you would take 3-4 spinners and 1-2 fasts.
>>152557324wouldn't have had this issue if michael slater wasn't a spastic
>>152557346yeah but my point was i guess if the spinners are good why not have multiple? i guess its just easier to bat against spinners than pace bowlers?
>>152557358climate/what the ground is made of etc. the pitches are supposed to be impartial but they never are. especially in india
>>152557309Different bowling attacks for different pitches pal.Sometimes it's nearly all spinners or all pace.
the past few days of cricket have been DOGSHIDD
>>152557119>refuses to take IPL coinI already thought he was based, you don't need to convince me
>>152557362>>152557376>>152557377thanks for the insight, i ask a genuine question and get many (You)'s with actual answers which i appreciate so here's a (You) back
>>152557380meant decades btw
Do you think Michael Slater is watching the cricket right now?
>>152557358it's to do with the climate and the pitches. different areas of the world are known for different bowling strengths that the lineups and local player development will reflect. spin in the subcontinent, swing in england, bounce in australia
>>152557371Get fucking Matt Hill in there, he did okay taking over footy. I'll take anyone else at this point.
enthralling test match cricket this
kiwis are cowards
is a straight drove down the ground one of the most kino shots?
>Swann calls himself a midget>Immediately apologises for saying itThis TNT coverage has me awestruck at how bad it is, it's like they want cricket to die in England
Just read that women have melanin receptors in their vagina is this true
>>152557444yes unironically
James Brayshaw enjoys men's physiques
>>152554592I reckon Stokes should have Tongue 'n Arse coming from either ends.
>>152557459I think the donedred is doing a pretty good job of that too lad
Oh they're doing that shit where they "go out in the middle to have a listen"
>>152557475So does his daughter in law
>>152557418so its just a strategy i guess on the surfaces to benefit your attackhow do they even know what the surface is gonna be like beforehand dont they have to announce their squad well in advance of a testwhats to stop australia or whoever from seeing england as an example only announce pace bowlers in their squad for the ashes then alter the surface to be really good for spinners
>>152557489I notice this yesterday and thought why don't they shut the fuck up for more than 5 seconds and we might actually be able to hear it kek
>>152557475He thinks he's fucking cool saying "Claret" instead of "blood".
>>152557444nah, flicking head height bouncers over the keeper for 6 is the most kino shot. makes everyone seethe.
>>152557439I do not agree
Post Kath's feet.
>>152557402looks like an asset flip
yep Englel are mentally cooked

>>152557373It's easier for a team to find 3 or 4 good fast bowlers for it's level of play than it is to find more than 1 effective spin bowler because fast bowling is harder to bat against than spin bowling. It also depends on where you are playing because of the pitch. In Australia pretty much every ground is good for fast bowling but not as good for spin bowling. If you were in India the pitches there are usually better for spin from the start of the game, in Australia the ground doesn't get worse until the end of the game so you might have 2 or 3 spinners.
good test this
check snicko please, it didn't hit
LETS FUCKING GO TONGUEBROS
>>152557444nothing in my 30 years of watching beats thishttps://youtu.be/KTxIWryp-Ts
>>152557559bit in this, i think
>>152557548haha ikwym haha iykwim haha
That two month boat ride back to England is going to feel very, very long.
>>152557373>yeah but my point was i guess if the spinners are good why not have multiple?Because you can pick the best (and potentially second best) spinner in the country and have them bowl nearly non-stop if you wanted to. There's no need to pick a third, fourth or fifth spin bowler if there are better bowlers who could be bowling.> i guess its just easier to bat against spinners than pace bowlers?Not necessarily. Some teams and batsmen are weaker against spin and sometimes the pitch surface is better for spin. When that's the case, teams may pick more than one spinner. It's common to see two specialist spinners and a part-time spinner bowling a lot of overs in a test if that's the case.
Fucking Marnus
>>152557583Hi
>>152557500Squads are big. Limited by the soil. Batsmen in both teams want the pitch to play how it normally does at that ground.
>>152557500>then alter the surface to be really good for spinnersit would take a long time to alter the surface that much. and some places it's not possible because of soil composition and weather conditions.
>>152557572corrnice shot that went a fucking mile and he barely moved
>>152557572Shot son.
Wasn't this pitch supposed to be a 500 run road? What the fuck is going on am I being gaslit
>>152557572>that high elbowfucking rock hard
>>152557500teh squad isnt just the 11 that end up playing. you can change the players from the selected squad right up to the day of the match
back spasms imminent
>>152557563>>152557609>>152557630>>152557631ty im learning appreciate ittheres an indian guy at my office wonder if it'd be racist if i ask if he likes cricket, probably. but i do enjoy cricket would be fun to talk to someone irl with it about
>>152557662It is but both sides batters are garbage, Engshit are of course a joke
>>152557500These >>152557630 >>152557631 and also Australia doesn't have enough world class spinners for an all-out attack, most bowlers here are quicks. It would be poor cricket to watch
>>152557688its not racistive never asked an indian that and theyve said no
Usman is gonna kill england's hopes again here isn't he
>>152557662nobody can bat any more.
Khawaja desperate to get 1 run, Head trying to keep him there and get out for a duck, based
>>152557688It's not racist. Like asking a Yank if they like baseball
>flat and england bowling like shot day 1>give them 8 free wickets and leave 250 runs out there>200 ahead>let a tailender a guy who averages 20 something in Australia take it down to 90>get past their 1 bowler>get out to shitterNeed a fucking team psychologist or JL yelling at them or something
>>152557688>ty im learning appreciate itThis is a superb book about the history of Cricket: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3299712-more-than-a-game
>>152557662Australia remembered to bring some decent bowling individuals, England forgot to bring anyone.
>>152557572actual stick cricket shot
>>152557572The fucking snap
>can't score a run blocking>goes back to shield to rediscover aggressive intent>called back up>a few underwhelming innings>back to blockingfucking marnus
>>152557737Archer has been good this test. It just took him two other tests to finally wake up.
>>152557688the first international game in any sport was a cricket match between US and Canada.
>>152557688They think it's racist but then they also get very excited and talk to you about it anyway
>>152557674oh i didnt know that i thought you had to submit it pretty early.>>152557702i like spin i think its more fun to watch for me personally, but that might be the baseball in me that everything in baseball is just speed now i like the older days where it was about command and control which to me is more a spin equivalent i guess>>152557703well maybe not racist, but you know what i mean. if it was at a bar and saw some indian dude i'd ask about cricket but at work don't wanna get put on some racist list
Reckon touring teams should have to take a steamer....for traditions sake
>>152557688Also, both teams arrive at the ground like a week before the start of the match and observe the pitch being made, so they roughly know what it's going to play like. They can then make squad changes if it looks different to what they were expecting.
>>152557730>JL yelling at themI can't think of anything more demoralising than having to listen to that cunt. Seeing his performance on comms on Channel 7 100% made me take Cummins side; he's an absolute dribbler.
Indian guy once called me racist so I asked if he was a dalit because he was acting like a dalit with his behaviour, then claimed his izzat for myself.
>>152557791like in the loo?
*gets in uber*hey mate you watch the cricket?
>>152557723fair>>152557734will add to my to read list, but ive got too much>>152557766yep i'm aware of that fun fact actually, i wanted to try to play cricket locally where i live but i think it's all indians and pakistani immigrants i dont think id fit in>>152557770fair
>>152557772Don't be so conditioned, ffs. It's like asking a Canadian if he likes hockey.
>>152557772>i like spin i think its more fun to watch for me personally,it's a shame you weren't watching when warne an murli were in their prime, they were fucking kino. both turned out to be chuckers in the end though.
It feels good when Travis Head is at the crease
ive been watching cricket my whole life and i still have no idea what the fielding positions are
dont take the bait
>>152557813>busy night, mate?>what do you do for a living?>been watching the ashes? no? how bout how india is going?>how shit is public transport here, hey?
>>152557812Goodness no. Take a long tramp steamer between England and Australian. Lots of shoe leave.
>>152557858wicket keeper is the bloke right behind the wickets wearing a helmet, hope this helps
>>152557572>waugh: thats an unbelievable shot. thats a terrific shotreally rolling out his whole vocabulary for that one
archers tongue my carse
>>152557815>i wanted to try to play cricket locally where i live but i think it's all indians and pakistani immigrants i dont think id fit ingive it a go mate. it's a great game to play, it's mostly about boozing and scoffing food at lunch, at amateur level. them jeets will lay on some mint scran too.
>>152557900yeah cheers
>>152557815would almost certainly be all indians and a couple of pommes but they're funny fellas the pajeets, and will absolutely say some out of pocket shit about women
>>152557858just work out what leg and off mean an you'll be right.
>has spoilers on his shoestake it easy, mateyou're not that fast
>>152557800that answers my question then actually ty>>152557816gotta be careful m8>>152557835i've watched plenty of highlights over the past couple years and spin highlights were always more fun to me. i randomly turned on cricket during the 2019 odi world cup and was so into it, then the ashes right after which were also amazing, but i've kinda not kept up with it too much because most of the test matches are at bad times in america. and i dont care for limited overs. but for some reason this test starts at 630pm my time so i can watch
>>152557766Thankfully the pajeets will revive cricket in my country
Having a part time wicket keeper is not a good idea methinks.
>>152557915no worries mate, i dont know what the other ones are
Reckon Jacks gets a hundred today?
>uber driver tries talking to me and gives me a bad review when I stop talking after a few exchanges
>busy night mate?>been watching the cricket?
surprised britjeet hasn't mentioned the /strongmind/ partnership currently at the crease in the Bay Oval
>>152557932>talk to most indian blokes one on one>very decent lads, surprising bantsHave we worked out what critical mass is needed that when there's too many individual indians, they form some sort of shitty hivemind and become awful? It's baffling tbqhwy
>>152557946>i dont care for limited overs
never taken an uber
>>152557951Its like a lame pickup line>i'm a wicketkeeper/batsmangive it a rest, mate
Who are my uber drivers talking to on the phone all the time
>>152557908>>152557932i tried looking into it and it was like people who take it real seriously if that makes sense, not just some dudes having a fun casual match just indians doing like competitive play. maybe i'll look more into it and see if i can find something local. i also dont have a car (i live in a "walkable" city) so probably the playing is mostly suburb shit, but ill try again
>>152557993lot of the indian blokes who grew up here are fine, i reckon the indian mind virus is fixed by early exposure to footy, cricket has too many other indians

>>152557993they're fine if there's no white roasties about.

>>152558087walking is a bit hard for the city plebs because it takes more than 20 minutes to walk across the entire town. taxis are fine people just prefer ordering on their phone and i think uber is way cheaper
>>152558079yeah all i found was like actual "leagues" i just wanna pick up a bat for the first time and mess around. there's probably something out there might need to check r*ddit or something

>>152558090For me its third man (ball retriever).
Estimate Ben Stokes' IQ...I'll go first, 89.
love when the bowlspeople's run-up foot prints start showing up on the second and third dayslimited overs 'cricket' could never
>>152558061>having two part time wicket keepers and they just randomly swap throughout the match, even between oversWould be absolute kino shithousery
>travis head has hit the stumps more time than the english bowlers this innigns
>>152558106how is it any different to an uber though lol aren't they the same people
Never used an uber in my whole life.

I went in a taxi once in 2007.
I watched this movie the other day. I don't get it, it was frightening at all.

>>152558183i live in dc i dont think our local colleges have baseball teams and if they do they're probably shit facilitiesi think there was formerly a group of jeets who play cricket on the mall but not sure if they still do
just noticed carse has arse in his name. potential for a humorous combination with tongue
Judging from the commentary, professional players have no idea how to play a sport they have been playing for several decades.

An embarassing declaration from poo peeland
England shouldn't bother trying to take a wicket just aim at slowing down the scoring rate this innings will obviously end with a declaration anyway; what's it matter if it's 2/400 or 8/400?What matters is eating up time/overs to force Australia to declare on as low at total as possible
