Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 4 Site Supporter Share Posted February 4 Still a long way to go, but that's a reasonable start. Need another big innings from someone again I reckon, but a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piemon Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) Hopefully they stick with Ben Foakes now going forward He's by far our best WK (And it weakens Surrey in the CC) Edited February 4 by Piemon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted February 4 Author Moderators Share Posted February 4 He needs to score runs Otherwise he will be out on this game, i really cant see it Lose by 150, i reckon, but with this lot, who knows Yon mons 200 won em this game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) We need 6 good partnerships of 50. And a flurry from the tail. Ideally we want 2 centurions. They have to believe it can be done and I’m sure they will. I wonder if India will have fielders in close to put the pressure on us, or man the boundaries to stop the heavy scoring.

Moderators Casino Posted February 4 Author Moderators Share Posted February 4 We have 180 overs so scoring rate isnt an issue This team breaks records but 400 batting last in India Really cant see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Gutted to get up this morning and find us 210-6. Really thought one of the senior batsmen would have put in an innings. The Stokes runout was just stupid, lazy running. We could still believe with him and Foakes at the crease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To let them go from a modest 331-7 to 445 all out was poor with batters 8, 9 and 10 scoring over 100 between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meanderson93 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I know it's risky stuff from openers but I do like how they both like to get bat to ball, get the scoring rate up early on and try and get the bowlers on the back foot, reclaiming those early overs for the batsmen in theory. It gets the pair of them in a bit of bother losing wickets in the teens and twenties but it ain't half fun to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Pope is scoring at 4 an over too and looks pedestrian! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
