[Cricket] Pakistan-England Test Series

[Mackenzie]

Mark Wood bowling really quickly, possibly the quickest I’ve ever seen of an English bowler. 97mph in that last over.

 

[The Wizard]

I never feel like Leach does enough as a front line spinner, to many bad balls.

Meanwhile, in Aus, Travis Head scores 175 (8 fewer than he got in 11 innings for us in the CC)

Outstanding bowling from what I've seen.

But England have lost this. Not just a bang average batting display here, but also it is clearly a spinners wicket, and we've picked just ONE. (Unless you count Joe Root's part time twirling)

FFS.

Bit harsh on Will Jacks, who took a Michelle on debut, in the first Test!

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Jack Leach's running-reverse-sweep is genuinely the worst shot I have seen anyone play FIRST BALL in my entire life. In literally ANY level of cricket.

If only we had a spinner of Swans ability

Same system clocked Leach at over 100mph…..some concerns as to it’s accuracy

Oh. 100kmh perhaps

 

[dazzer6666]

Oh. 100kmh perhaps

Nope….Leach @ 157kph

 

[St Leonards Seagull]

Blimey, imagine how quick he’d be with a run up.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Mark Wood bowling really quickly, possibly the quickest I’ve ever seen of an English bowler. 97mph in that last over.

It didn't do him much good though.

Day two and Leach strikes, 159-4

 

[jakarta]

England making progress, four wickets this morning, 169-6

 

[jakarta]

Root strikes first ball! 169-7

and again! 169-8

Nobody seems to rate him but he now has 49 Test wickets, not bad for a part timer?

 

[jakarta]

Calypso Collapso as Wood gets his first 179-9. Extra half hour taken.

EDIT 202 all out.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Well, well, well. Again this England team show it’s probably better to keep one’s powder dry before making rash judgements on selection and performance.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Blimey

 

[jakarta]

Wickets tumbling all day, this isn't going into a 5th day is it? 143 lead, need at least another 120?

 

[Scappa]

That's a stunner of a catch to dismiss Root
