Root said he asked for the captaincy when Fleming was being locked in as coach

another cricketing thread? big. huge even.

Bard scored 7 of the greatest runs ever scored in club cricket. Inspirational

more like the gayest runs ever scored

no but steven gay

Was the front-foot cut a thing of rare beauty? Yes
Was getting bowled attempting a forward defensive to a non-spinning spinner embarrassing? Also yes
The long night of the soul is upon me

Think it's fair to say without Bard's plucky 7 his teammates wouldn't have had the inspiration to plough on in their run chase

schorchies

One of our bowlers got bowled around his legs by an off-spinner bowling over the wicket yesterday
Very rum situation, I genuinely think he got clicky pontinged by the wicketkeepsman knocking off the bails with his gloves
He's not the sort of bat who would step completely across the line, so I don't know how it would even be possible for him to be bowled at that angle with that sort of delivery

One of our batsmen, even
(I'm mentally fatigued due to my ennui)

Currently watching Pears vs Essex
We've got a bit of a weak team out and Essex have started well, so predicting a loss

why is england cricket obsessed with new Zealand

I think maybe they feel they give them some magical insight at how to beat Australia considering they are geographically close

>>157223102
Makes sense considering your only world cup """"""""win"""""""" came from a cheating kiwi

hey siri how many cricketing world cups have new zealand won

Grok, how many non asterisked world cups have england won without kiwis

This match is probably getting rained out. Cannot fathom why we schedule tests in July/August instead of January-May

Ah yes, Mumbai Indians London versus Manchester Supergiants. Women.

>last time bard made a century Alistair Cook was still an international cricketsperson
mad that

Hindu /businessminds/ own more of London than anyone else and Jodrell Bank Observatory (unfortunately) up n*rf in AreKidchester so both franchise names make perfect sense. Subhuman engshitters are too low IQ to catch that

Let us know when the /weakminds/ figure out how to beat Ireland in a sport they don't even care about

2-0, wasn't it?

>>157222918
Would.

looks like you were incorrect this time

I met Cameron winter in the smoking area outside the haunt in Brighton 2026
I was naturally quite star struck. i said 'are you having a good day'?
he replied by channelling of a load of Russian novels
I said it's cool 'do you want another drink?'
we then compared our familial wealth and got blitzed on mdma
