An extension of our awful Winter in the field

If it’s a tough catch fair enough but I’d expect a 12 year old to catch it

 

[jd1981]

England need a flurry of wickets now to have any chance, I’d bet India getting 180 will probably be enough

 

[jd1981]

I’d save yourselves the annoyance of watching that chase, I think our bowling attack was a little bit exposed there

 

[Wilf Wolf]

All downhill after a good first over of our reply.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Much closer than I expected. One simple dropped catch quite possibly the difference.

 

[Tony Towner]

If Jofra had just bowled badly we'd have won.

 

[jd1981]

That catch FFS to fall just 7 runs short is gutting

 

[Tony Towner]

Boooooo

India wining and if they keep winning with manipulation of tournaments it’ll feel like a kid who keeps winning pass the parcel at their own party.

Who’s this

Some piss taker

The BCCI should be proud. They have managed to unite England and Australia cricket fans for the first time in well over a century.

You can make judgement calls on players, that's fine, it's your job, but why Rob Key do you have to be such a relentless dickhead. Treat people properly

The Lancashire all-rounder said the England group is cliquey and ‘no one cares about you’ if you’re not in favour

He’s 32 and has a phone. What more does he want?

 

[Tony Towner]

No accountability from Key downwards

Thing is we'll win at home (we haven't lost a series since 2014, and that was a two matcher - it's 2012 since we lost a three matcher, and Australia haven't won here since 2001) and they'll pretend it's all ok.

 

[Tony Towner]

We will, equally in that time we haven't beaten the Aussies or India in a series at home whilst being walloped when we go there.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We did win the 2015 Ashes in fairness, and beat India 4-1 in 2018

Sorry, I meant in the Key and McCullum era.
