I don’t care what Blewett says because he’s an idiot, Australia are not ahead here

>>149579299
Honestly as grim as it may sound, he is your best option rn, Haseeb has good FC numbers but was shit when he played in international games, the current policy is that if u can score against India or Australia, you stay otherwise they will get someone who can do that

Crawley as dreadful as he is most of the time, still gets that job done

I would be more worried about pope if I were you

Lol no. Bethell is miles better.

isnt bethell more of a 3/middle order player?

>>149579434
Nope. Opening batsman all of his junior career.

Jacob Bethell doesn't know enough of the right people for my liking.

How fucked is england? I dont know shit about cricket

YFO mate

Zacky C needs more private sessions with Robert Key

You mean his dad hasn't paid you seven figures to keep selecting him like big Zak's.

evolutionary reason for elephants having big ears?

This is officially a comfy neet thread

>>149579786
PROOOH?

>>149579764
>>149579774

so if it bounces and hit your legs, if it would have bounced into the sticks without you being in the way you are out?

Is it possible to have a chase when your opponent only bats once?

>>149579774
a better set of facts to ponder is why the ears of African elephants are shaped like Africa and the ears of Indian elephants are shaped like India

I AM THE FUCKING DEVIL

Ah yes, but an innings of 0/0 declared is still a completed innings.

>>149579859
you can lose your wicket by being out leg before wicket and it is precisely if the ball hits your leg first and in such manner that it would've hit the wicket if not for your leg being before the wicket.
Basically stops batspersons from blocking the ball with their legs to protect the stumps

>>149579937
do you lose a wicket if you have to piss really bad and leave the field

>>149579958
You can be timed out but if it's an emergency you can talk to the umpire and if the opposition captain agrees you can go pee

wasted review

Feel like the Ashes should be contested by India and South Africa this year. Don't think Australia and England are up to it.

australia have lost their head here

Windies and South Africa once Windies stop dropping catches

sone middle aged woman at bouldering just called me so strong

How middle aged are we talking here?

these niggas can't field

First time poster here, hi :))
Have a question, can the wicketkeep store poo in his box to flummox the batkeep? especially when he's standing next to the sticks?

Funfact, if you hold onto your bat you can hit the ball away with your hand.

>>149580320

Hi :)) what does that mean fella? New here you see. Thanks!

walking back from bouldering in peeds and some homeless guy tried to flog me what I can only assume is stolen Tony's chocolate
i mean it is fairly expensive for chocolate I guess
I wish him the best not a bad business model he's got there

Could've wished him the best to his face rather than slinking off like the coward you are

teach him ways of the v5 fella
you'll have a bff for life I reckon

think thieving scum should get the noose personally but that's just me

"cor you're RIPPED. want a tony's?"

he knew a gorger of chocolate when he saw one

just paid 3.50 for a kirkstall three swords
mad cheap that

don't assume he stole it some good samaritan probably gave it him and now he's trying to sell it to get a fix

yeah true tbf

first flat I nearly exchanged on the building was like 200 years old and it was falling apart

>>149581435

I pulled out after both surveys
Last one was for non-historic movement. Roof was also falling apart but had already budgeted for that

>>149581494
>pulled out after both surveys
have done this meself once
seller accepted the offer; spent $500 on inspection, but backed out after
my real estate agent was shattered, but he understood I was serious at least

mental that americans have agents for buying and organising viewings for them kek
get rinsed for like 3% for no reason

I didn't actually get a survey on the one I am buying desu
nothing presented itself/gave anyone a reason to
building was constructed 20 years ago so it should be fine

mine was a while back, dunno how much one costs these days ngl

>>149581602
yeah this one seemed really good aside from the roof seeming tired, and could afford to redo that

didn't expect the subsidence
unfortunately puts a stink on the whole property upon resale even if you fix it by underpinning or whatever (which is still hideously expensive)

How do they play cricket in england if it literally rains every day? and how come it's their national sport?
Wrong answers only

love bouldering

argie has to be one of our more weird blowies
not sure whether he likes cricket or any of the nations involved with it

I don't know the rules yet but I support kiwis and saffas my /rug/ brothers.

Was trying to apply for that job when a mate contacted me and said he's back in town and I need to meet him for some drinks

Ended up having 6 pints, left me fairly steaming

Got back home and hastily wrote the application using AI so that I could submit something legible before the job closed at midnight, fear I might not get it because I have no idea what I put

reddit moment

>>149588948
they're all vpns mate

I don't use a vpn

>>149589058
if you lack the discipline to make a single application maybe you don't deserve it

me llamo santiago y veo el cricket aunque es algo dificil de entender para mi

>>149589087
Probably accurate
Only saw the job yesterday and obviously with a closing date on the same day I didn't have as much time to prepare for it as I'd have liked
Then it was just bad luck with getting dragged out of the house and forced to drink 6 pints

just blame it on mental elf
not your fault then

>>149589046

Should have ticked the box for the "disability confident" interview scheme and used my quote and quote """"mental health"""" to boost my chances, but don't quite have the audacity for that sort of move yet

One downside of the new role is that I'm fairly sure the line manager for it is a tranny
Maybe it's for the best if I don't get it

>>149589164
lol (laughing out loud at the idea of being in a tranny occupied industry)

>>149589171
There's unironically shitloads in my department (I think I've counted 6 or 7 of them)

It's quite a nerdy / data heavy area so the trannies (basically just gay blokes with autism) are drawn to it like moths to a flame

If a 4 as we know it is worth 4 runs, should a 6 as we know it be worth more?

>>149589189
I'm surprised I've never seen a tranny in Sydney's Ecommerce industry
Also my theory is that the illuminati introduced trannyism to neuter weaponised autism

anyone else drink beer occasionally? just me?

>>149589219
Lockdown revealed I was a social drinker, I don't keep it in the house or have the urge to but get the urge to go out to a bar/pub every once in a while.

>>149589217
E-commerce is too social / extraverted for trannies

prefer stimulants myself

>>149589189
don't really get that in r nhs, but actual women flock to it
even the data-heavy areas are 50% actual women
trannies probably hate the nhs because of the 10 year wait lists for tranny drugs

Reckon zachy could easily pass as a FtM tranny

>>149589264
yeah very true
also a lot of actual women in it because they love shopping so think its a good career path

just had dinner then realised i didn't have breakfast today so i might have breakfast now

Khawaja Genninely needs to go, gaslighted his way in the squad after scoring against Sri Lanka

Also, Inglis has to be in that squad somehow, he is probably the most inform batter in that squad outside of carey and Webster

I would like this 11

Inglis

nhslad, like bard and zachy, had to wear the rainbow lanyard for all of last month. don't know why he's now complaining about having a trans manager

>>149589758
what'll your mortgage repayments be each month mate?

zachy's just going to continue being a carefree phonepostingmong without paying the rent or utility bills (mummy taking care of it all). the world is unfair. simple as

>>149589758
you'll owe interest for the mortgage money being held in the lead up to completion, so your first mortgage payment is usually almost double, but that'll be in your full mortgage offer
solicitor should have given you a quote for all of it anyway

le"aussie rebuilding phase" meme is a bad joke

the whole sport is a joke

life is a joke

Alright we've had the mortgage talk can we get on to pensions now then

the rebuilding was when they had that Xavier left arm spinner bloke in the team (I've unironically forgotten his full name)
they aren't going to rebuild until Khawaja, Smith, Starc go out of the team and they'll struggle to replace them (hopefully >we score a cheeky ashes 5-0 in that phase haha)

>>149589987
recently starting paying into my ''''''final salary''' 5 year big boy pension
no brainer

>>149590009
I said it last night but we should be playing a young pace bowler against Windies
There's no reason to play all 3 of the golden oldies, we aren't bowling weak.

didn't realise final salary pensions still existed

they don't really its a meme hence the '''
some pensions are better than others though

the only things I have in common with bard are enjoying cricket and not having a clue about how my pension works

Why is Longinus a saint when all he did was stab Christ with a spear?

Business Idea:
Bowl when it's red hot and bat when it's cloudy

>>149590719
you don't get better without challenging yourself.

i think we need more runs here and maybe five more wickets in hand but only one of these are possible

Doesn't matter it's a draw anyway.

>>149590773
india getting 15 wickets in the whole of today and the rest of feasible play this rainy weekend surely not a remote possibility

Just need a few double centuries and we'll be back in the driver's seat

>>149590792
Not enough time+flat pitch+no venom in Indian bowling.

>>149590834
>still trail by 78 runs
oh no

>>149590841
it would force India to come out to bat and take a guess on how many runs are needed, i.e. a draw

Ok how does it work?

nothing funny about the Mitchell and Webb cricket sketch

The thread was slow as shit when England was 90 for 5, even though there are 10 times more British flags than Indian ones.

bard liking Fawlty Towers isn't that bad but it just doesn't have the same replay value. It's got that Mr Bean slapstick thing so foreigners love it but OFAH has that plus good writing and characters

bard's taste in comedy is like zachy's taste in fashion

probably only comedy I've seen UK flags on 4chan univrtsally agree on is The Day Today/Brass Eye, which has virtually no overplayed moments and therefore can't be easily denigrated.
>>149592389

you going to the oasis concert bard lad?

>>149592264
yeah but then they'd be calling pakis indians not indians pakis wouldn't they

>>149592947
No, would never be able to justify spending that much on a band who I think are just ok

Don't really mind career average over final salary tbqh as I flew through the ranks in only a few years by job hopping

final salary would seem annoying because you'd be forced to stay in the highest post possible when you finally quit rather than being able to slow down in your twilight years

*does a marks and Spencer's brogues:the post*

this is trash cricket

got some charles tyrwhitt shirts recently and they're actually good
credit where it's due, bard was right

>>149593038
so true
not enough bazzing
not enough boundaries

they've lost it

anyone had one of those m&s strawberry and cream sarnies?

webb

nothing entertaining about a boundary

Cameron winters lyrics are really good desu
Great vocals as well
And fairly interesting musical arrangement

>>149593001
Simply enjoy the lower responsibility for your career and then job hop right at the end of it so you remain minted for your boomer twilight years

>>149593067
Yeah they're good quality, very solid choice for mid-range formal wear
I tend to go for either them or TM Lewin, although overall I prefer CT
Never wear a suit anymore except at weddings thoughever, mostly live in trackies now, feel like a right tradie scrote

Considering they get like 35 holidays (+ the extra ones they can buy), you'd think civil servants would be busy the rest of the year yet all the civil servants are also the most prolific posters. starting to think our humble tax money might be getting, how does one say this, pissed down the toilet?

on the train around south Yorkshire
lots of caravans about
lots of gypsies in Yorkshire for some reason
South Yorkshire especially

need Ian Bell back to simmer things down here lads

nothing else hits like seeing 11 runs off 269 deliveries when chasing down a number

'The most sparsely populated counties in England are generally considered to be Cumbria, Northumberland, and North Yorkshire'

Think this partly explains why there are lots of gypsies up here, just more space and generally less bother

>>149593150
I'm fine with civil servants not being worked to exhaustion. Whenever I need one I am confident they are well rested and totally not stressed and out and can do their job easily with minimal fuss and maximal efficacy

some fucking boomer decided to basically cuddle up to me on the train
he's playing some shitty pool game on his phone

DON'T LOOK BACK IN ANGERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

>>149593266
Those two overs I seen him bowl yesterday the first over he went for 11 with two fours immsmc and the second over was much better he only went for two. Then he was getting angry at all the wide stuff and now he's composed

*switches to Grenada*

Just one more wicket and we're back in the game.

>>149593337
same

Like I said.
Flat pitch. Guaranteen draw.

HOWZAT!

chad and bowled

oh dear

I feel a little bit for him in his 100th test but he gets a chance to make up for it second innings, weather permitting

any non-bots in

Indians just weren't meant to play physical sport
Chess, yes

>>149593368
>Guaranteen draw.
India to blame here, batted for way too long day two. Would have skittled England out by now if they were chasing a lower score and won this test.

good m-
>Kraigg goes for duck
fuck

This stat says the openers aren't doing their job of staying in for the first 17 overs like they're supposed to do. Runs don't matter against fresh bowlers with a new ball in the morning on a non-road

>>149593398
seems not

>stickability
nice one Carlos

no such thing as a non-physical sport
that's why snooker, chess, f1, golf, darts etc aren't seen as sports

GOTTEM
>>149593528
You try sitting down for 9 hours while mentally working like a computer.

>>149593528
breathing is a physical activity

organised competition and record keeping are what makes games into sports

>>149593528
Darts is a sport despite what you, in your smelly bedroom, say.

cricket is a sport in Australia and the subcontinent
it's a summer activity elsewhere

>>149593150
Had an angry conversation with my line manager yesterday about my workload being too high

>>149593591
>line manager
when you say this I immediately imagine you work at McDonald's

me? best boulderer on /cric/ by a significant margin

>>149593605
modern toil involves having zero limit whatsoever on who your "boss" actually is so "line manager" is at least specific

DROPPED THE GOTTEM-GONE GIMMICK

snooker IS a sport

>Chess
debatable

>The rest just mentioned
DEFINITELY NOT

it's a disgrace that the best pace bowler in the world isn't playing despite being 100% fit, and it may cost australia the match

>>149593625
Yeah mate, McChicken large chips and a chocolate shake please

Still on the train

sir this is 1845

like to think of York as a large village

People here say that too except for the cities part. Once we get our shit together (become nuclear superpower) we're coming back (to free the Welsh)

We can at least all agree Aussie Rules isn't a sport and that's that

This is embarrassing for India fucking hell

GO

>>149593537
I do that whenever I watch a day of test cricket

activity not sport

the new Irish poster is good

random souths fan spotted

>new
and not Irish

>>149593565
no it isn't. it's probably the best example on that list of a non-sport
imagine having a huge belly and flabby bingo wings (99.9% of dartsmen) and thinking yourself an athlete

WOW CUMMINS YOU ARE A FUCKING LEGEND

BASED CUMGOD

That was so good

CUMMGOD

when it comes to posting on 4chan I wish Bard had the 'work ethic' of Tuffers

O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN

Seen some black people in my affluent countryside neighborhood, which is a bit at odds with the typical people you get here

Also seen these two complete chavettes who always walk around with each other and nobody else, which is also a bit rum because we really don't have their type here usually either

Wonder if there's some sort of scheme to re-settle people here

>>149593810
sumo wrestler athletes thoughever

look if you have unathletic welsh genes then sitting down and thinking over a board or sitting down and turning a wheel will be sports in your head. you need to give yourself a chance and warp the definitions if you're a welshie weakling with no actual sporting dna

>literally called The Black Country
>noooo not the blacks

>>149593884
As if I'd live in the black country
My part of the West Mids is far comfier and essentially part of the west country (best country) really

first time in test history the first 2 wickets of an innings were both caught and bowled

>>149593905
riveting

>>149593884
I asked a fellow from there about this and he said it's because of the dirt. You also don't see any evidence of Aryan civilisation at the cliffs of Dover for example

>>149593905
incredible

>>149593858
>Unathletic Welsh genes
Christian Bale, Colin Jackson etc would like a word
also, a middle aged woman in a Leeds industrial estate yesterday was literally in awe of my Welsh genes as I broke a heel hook beta

also entirely possible that it's called The Black Country as it is rightful Welsh clay

reminder I can read as much welsh as sussex tarq spaccy and the surrey tarq "glammy"lad's whole identity revolves around his dad accidentally applying for a welsh driver's license on his behalf

>Christian Charles Philip Bale is an English actor known for his versatility and commitment to physically transforming for roles. Born in Wales in 1974, Bale identifies as English and was raised primarily in England.
why are you such a retard spaccy kek

>>149593962
reminder you are also a fat neek that never leaves his laptop

IF wales split from the ECB and played international cricket on their own...

THEN would they have test status and if so where would they rank?

>>149593968
Gareth bale then
Makes no odds

>>149593977
lmaooooo
they unironically wouldn't get 11 players. they'd be about romania tier
have only ever had Robert Croft and Simon Jones who hardly played

>>149593977
Yes and 13th

this nigga got the michael jackson disease

>>149593961
so true

imagine being 38 and having an identity crisis
couldn't be me

not one indian or sebbo flag for 3 hours despite there being a dozen when england lost thei 5th wicket

hmm

FIGHT AND WIN
COME ON WEST INDIES

imagine thumbing your laptop all day then watching the chase afterward
Couldn't be me

some days he thinks he's from sussex, other days he thinks he's from yorkshire and then he thinks he's welsh. it's grim

>>149594012
using an irish flag rn

>>149594012
saw certain mentally ill man was crowing about me saying india won't bowl out this lot
taking free wickets at dodgy times means nothing

>>149594034
I already made it clear I prefer India to lose

>>149594020
*conch blowing intensifies*

>>149594012
There’s really nothing to say when two nutjobs are just going at it.

-I don't think I am from Yorkshire at all, I just live there and enjoy it massively, and will be doing so for the foreseeable future providing all goes well in Donedon in a minute
-I think I am quite Welsh indeed, but at the end of the day mostly just a Sussex tarq

Fucking hell all this Ashes talk already
It's going to be shite from both sides end of
Remove Ashes and test is DEAD and these old fogies know it

>having to go on holiday with an annoyingly perky old woman with no tits, no ass and english.
grim

What are you blowhards bloviating about now?

we will smash sixes all over oldman poowaja's corpse and you will love it

nice reddit bullet pointing

that's barely missing

>>149593995
Phil Salt is Welsh
Obviously half the Glammie boys are too
I reckon it'd be a Bangladesh tier side overall

thanks mate I'll smash the ball up into the air for no reason

For what purpose

So if Webster's actually good why are >we still bothering with this Green cunt?

BIG SLUG

Moronic dismissal

>>149594248
Looks like we're keeping both

newie requires baking soon

>>149594248
Because Webster turns 32 this year

Labuschane will be back in the team pretty quickly

this poortnership > subhuman gill wasting time for his teammates

>>149594306
For who though? They aren't dropping Green, and Webster bats and bowls better than Marnus

>>149594268
I'm not doing it

Phil Salt is more Bajan than Welsh

>>149594329
Probably Konstas

Open with Green, he can be Australia's Crawley, he'd average about the same

Don't understand Zachy's gripe with the chase

>"If this was a pitch in Rawalpindi or Ahmedabad, we could have been discussing demerit points by now." - Arun
SO TRUE

perhaps resting bumrah wasn't a good idea

>>149594414
his general knowledge is very poor so he keeps losing to the fat women chasers when playing along

sucking a sticky wicket in Donedon

He already had a week’s rest, no idea why he couldn’t play this Test. Didn't take any rest during the IPL.

I am now realising that the Indian fans also wear le funny costumes but instead of animals, Elvis, or Flintstones, they come wearing Indian pyjama kits.

>>149594414
nothing against it per se
there just exists other things (some notable) i would much rather be doing at the precise time it is on, is all

uh poosisters? England are categorically winning the story here. will the bindian cricket peem ever take a wicket again?

>>149594469
England haven't even met the follow-on yet and they only have bowlers left. They would need to bat until the end of tomorrow before the game is favoured for them.

employedchy b works every day but also goes bouldering for an hour at 3pm every day. don't ask how it happens, just believe him

we should declare now and let India enforce the follow on

Follow-on? Averted

>>149594571
Why would India enforce it?

WWTBAM became too mainstream
The Weakest Link early seasons was peak quizzing
UC is too high brow and only weird neeks know the answers

>>149594562
>England haven't even met the follow-on yet
LOL

>>149594563
been through
grey collar hours
start early
finish early
35 hour working week

Etc

GOTTEM
>>149594581
>>149594590
You have to be trailing by LESS than 200 runs to avoid the follow on.

i like tipping point

>>149594268
I'll do it, got a really good idea for it so nobody else do it please

>>149594602
wow a whole 1 run away

>>149594624
