Sweep Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 My mate had £25 at 12/1 on a 5:0 whitewash for Australia, I reckon he's pretty happy with that start...... I thought we'd get thumped, but I was expecting a bit more than we've offered thus far......although they still have to bat yet, so who knows....although I might have a few quid on them getting 500+ 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 8, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted December 8, 2021 Shite batting again. But will reserve full judgement until they've batted. Pitch shouldn't be that much different for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t see anything but a defeat, but getting batting time and putting miles into the bowlers. Bat as long as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 10, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2021 Think we've bowled reasonably well. At 340 or so for 7, that's a decent effort. OK Head's gone on and pushed the score, but considering the lack of cricket they did OK. Looks like the pitch has got a bit easier to bat on, which will lead to questions about batting first, but for now, credit where its due. A solid start tonight, and maybe some buttler/stokes bashing and who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Get through the first session, inc new ball, unscathed and then we’ll see. Doubt I’ll see much of Saturday’s play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobyBrno Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 First 2 nights I watched the morning session before bed, crap. Today, got up early instead, great cricket. Not sure what to do tonight. Just opened a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc from NSW. That will be the decider. Happy that the overrated Yorkshireman with more Test runs in a calendar year than any other England player in history is still there. Think I’ve convinced myself. Going to bed soon and alarm set for 11.30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately he's very injury prone and needs managing. Maybe they are being careful with him. Maybe it's horses for courses, though I'm not sure Broad is the man anymore. We'll see.
