The Cricket Thread

[Deutsch Wolf]

Think Somerset might have had a punt at it had Banton not got out, probably not now.

Pretty toothless again. Very likely to still be stuck on 0 wins.

And we lose.

Watched the end of the chase. Let's just say I don't think much of Alex Davies as a captain.

 

[Tony Towner]

Pathetic. Into the relegation zone and the only winless side. 2 defeats this season where they were heavy favourites after the first innings.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Glamorgan 542/7 chasing 593!

Tied!

Bracey with a great catch off the last ball, scores were already level

 

[Carrotdude]

What an ending! There were 11k people watching the stream at the end

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Caught it without a glove too

 

[darlowolf64]

Crane turned down at least one single early in the over and only took one off the 5th ball... Think that was a mistake

 

[Tony Towner]

Sam Hain starts the last over at the none strikers end on 98 2,4,W,6,W...unlucky

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Watching the "Legends" cricket on TNT just so I can watch Ian Bell. Absolutely 100% worth it.

Thanks...hadn't realised that was on.

Another superb overseas signing, how do we do it:

Aamer Jamal leaves Warwickshire early after injury-blighted stint

Pakistan international team-mate Hasan Ali has also been sidelined with elbow issue

A reminder of the XI on Jimmy's Test debut:

Trescothick
Vaughan
Butcher
Hussain
Key
Stewart
McGrath
Giles
Harmison
Hoggard
Anderson

None of the other 10 players played for England after 2009

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Salzman gave a great stat. Anderson made his debut in a side with Alec Stewart, who made his first class debut in 1981.

Sheeeesh.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Nice start to Atkinson's test career

 

[Sniffer]

Atkinson strikes!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Atkinson takes a wicket with his second ball, big drag on from Brathwaite

34/1

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Not out. Unlucky from Woakes, was a beautiful delivery

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Good review by Louis. Although he's a bit fortunate it bounced over the stumps after he missed it.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Atkinson again! Pretty horrible shot tbh and 36/2.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

What a catch by Brook! Stokes moving closer to 200 Test wickets.

44/3
