Re: Cricket 2021
OK, I'm CLEARLY missing something here...........
England needed about 140 runs to win with 6 wickets in hand, and have approx 7 sessions left to get them in. The way I see that is you need to score at about 16 - 20 runs per 100 balls which equates to less than ONE run per over, and you dont need to take even half a risk, but will still win with 2 sessions to spare. Why then is that 42 carat plonker Stokes risking his wicket trying to launch the ball out of the ground?

Re: Cricket 2021
Touch of the Andrew Windsors at the end ...... no sweat
Joe storms (plods) to another unbeaten ton passing 10000 on the way
I like Ben Fowkes 89 good balls and 3 bad un's in his innings he treated the good uns with respect and dispatched the other 3 to the boundary .... proper test batting

Re: Cricket 2021
After watching the IPL for the past few months seemed a damn slow game watching Stokes and Root plodding along.
Good win though for the Poms.

Re: Cricket 2021
Just saw Joe Root make 100 . Very, very, very rare occurrence for an Australian cricket fan. Well done the home side.

Re: Cricket 2021
Perhaps if the Australia Cricket fan spent more time watching the game and less in the beer tent he would be quite used to seeing Joes tons

Re: Cricket 2021
Nah Statts. He doesn't make 100s against us - we bowl a bit quick. Well not since 2015. He hasn't looked like getting one on his three tours of Australia. I think Steve Smith has made 8 against your mob in that time even with the sandpaper suspension.

Flicking between the cricket and Essendon v Carlton 150 year anniversary match in the footy. Cricket slow, blues controlling the footy.

47 - 0 at drinks. Poms won the toss and bowled Baggers well ahead of the dons at 1/2 time in the footy.

Re: Cricket 2021
Wow good innings so far from the kiwis.
4-318 stumps. RR 3.6 a good rate after 87.

Re: Cricket 2021
Slow over rate caused by constant trips to the bloody boundary to collect the ball

Re: Cricket 2021
Unfortunately he’s already 0-78.
He may be the first Pom to make 100 this test. One would hope not and Joe can save the day again.

Re: Cricket 2021
At last 405 - 5
"Leach to Blundell, OUT
miscued to mid-off, England finally break the stand! Just a hint of turn outside off stump, and Blundell was looking to pound it down the ground for four. But he mistimed his shot, hacking it straight to Stokes who took a straightforward catch at mid-off. Blundell goes for 106 and after 236 runs and 67.2 overs, the partnership is over"

Re: Cricket 2021
Leach 2nd top score with 117.
Must be a good batting pitch.
Maybe a double century from Joe will be required. Might be a day 5 finish though.
5-447
600 would be daunting
