[Cricket] Ashes 2021-22

[A1X]

Quite appropriate both the first and last ball of the series saw an English batsman bowled for a golden duck

 

[Jeremiah]

Now there's a team that DESERVES to be booed off the field (bowlers apart, who did a fair job across the series)

pathetic ......not a backbone amongst them.

 

[The Fits]

The psychopath as coach is a bit dated in professional sport these days but if ever a team needed one it is now. It’s just all so bloody predictable and pathetic and nice. Those players should’ve felt like their lives where at risk retuning back to clubhouse after some of those shots.

 

[martin tyler]

In cases like today’s dismissals, I really don’t think that argument holds up.

The crap shots on show, would have been crap shots in any form of the game.

Absolutely can’t argue with that only ball that was unplayable was the root one.
More trying to say we don t appear to understand what is needed from test cricket anymore as you pointed out the shot selection was rank . It’s meant to be a 5 day game but we struggle to make it to day 4. One day 20/20 they have a good grasp of it and what is needed but with the red ball we are clueless

 

[Adders1]

We were bested by a team of athletes who have played first class cricket for the last 12 months. The English team just weren’t at their level. can’t take anything away from the Aussie team, it was men against the boys in the first 3 tests (and final innings). They are just better than us at the moment and they wanted it more. Half of our team shouldn’t be out in the sun in the first place let alone playing cricket - tough watching the capitulation time after time, but it’s been pretty enjoyable watching all the same - can’t wait for the next series.

It would be inappropriate to suggest that England's batting in this series was absolute shit until Sue Gray finishes her inquiry.

 

[OzMike]

What a shambles of a team.
My mate texted me to join him at our local to watch the last couple of hours play.
I replied that it would all be over today.
Bolleaux, wish I had made time to put a bet on that.
Would have surely been a result !

And I have a suggestion for you Agnew - just fvck off.

Axe that 100 abortion and let Counties Play 4 day games in June, July & August.

I think I know which will produce Test Players...

 

[Is it PotG?]

Giles gone.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Silverwood will be next to go.
Get Robbo in!

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

The Pakistani openers currently showing England how it should be done against Australia.

Currently 100 without loss in the 32 over.

England would have been about 6 down for the same score with Joe Root blaming the bowler's.

It's an absolute road though - even Sussex would score runs on this

There's a cracking match in the women's WC - WI v NZ swinging one way and another

EDIT: Kiwis blew it - lost three wickets in the last over
