here's your cricket bro edition
play restarting in a few minutes at a sunny Birmingham
England need 536 with 7 wickets and 80ov remaining
Aus v WI also on later
just looked in the direction of Birmingham and cant see a thing

If you played Final Fantasy as a kid youre probably a nonce

I mostly played Tekken 3 as a child
ive never really watched cricket, trying to get my head around the format and tactics
will england just play defensively so it ends in a draw?

>rain stops
>immediately lose a wicket

jesus fucking christ he was lucky that wasn't aiming for his HEAD you can barely see anything out there
get some torches out there and get them off the field
>From Middle English kide, from Old Norse kið (“young goat”), from Proto-Germanic *kidją, *kittīną (“goatling, kid”), perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *gʰaydn-, *ǵʰaydn- (“goat”) or Proto-Indo-European *gidʰ- (“kid, goatling, little goat”). Compare Swedish and Danish kid, German Kitz and Kitze, Albanian kedh and kec. The sense of child has been in use since the 1590s as cant, and since the 1840s in informal use.[1][2]

Jamie Smith is a kino cricketer
Don't enjoy watching midget Duckett, faggot Crawley, lesbian Root, down-syndrome Brook or peewee Stokes
But Smith is kino
Reckon instead of copying Smudge's nickname, we should call Jamie Smith "Fudge" since he looks like he just came from steamworks
Root looks like an upper caste Norman.

soul
mint or lavender is easy indoors in pots. alliums are the family of onions and garlics, some of them are ornamental or you could put some garlic for example in a window box, you’ll have to research what suits you.
eucalyptus and citrus you can grow them inside in pots as bonsai trees or just keep trimming them back they’ll be fine, you’ll need a bit of research on those too.
I think the simplest easy and quick way is get some mint and/or lavender in pots put them by the windows and see if those geckos are offended enough to go away

it was already decided by his many wins (ending the shitjeet character by exposing his lies about his cousin, the freethinker greentext post etc). not even going to mention certain literal who and his attempts at rigging the poll

bye bye
thinking about making a cricket related post
>>149646713never said that
>>149646756wasn't rigged. Your boyfriend lost. The Australian old guard looked out for me
>bard plays cricket
he's a team mascot, which is arguably half a step above zachy watching it in his bedsit
>follows FC
nobody cares lol. that doesn't mean anything when he follows t20s enthusiastically (loses lots of points for this)
Your fielding today was amazing, and you are so ripped
>bedsit
not for much longer
Bard and his cocksucker can have a tag team match againat Zacharias and whoever he can find to be his partner
being THAT into t20 is (mildly) eccentric not reprehensible and certainly not condemnable.
also on the other side there are levels to following the cricket, the least of which is knowing that it’s on

>wasn't rigged
funny how the poll link got posted and bard had a quick 4 vote lead before it 'somehow' became a 2 vote deficit after a long bit of inactivity
based bnob has spaccy on the ropes here
>>149646958Why's this bloke so obsessed with you anyway?
>bowl good length
>take wickets
This is the trvth
73/5 seems less than ideal my dear black boros
he actually thinks I rigged it like Georgia 2020
>>149646996no idea
Ian Bishop is the Sun Tzu of pace
>>149647058which part of Wales are you from?
now that the dust has settled let's admit that this bowling attack >we're putting out at the minute is utter shite (Woakes opening? no spinner and a bunch of who-tier bowlers with 10 tests between them?) and any runs scored against them are ridiculously overrated
and yes I'm allowed to say bowling attack
https://archive.4plebs.org/sp/thread/149572390/#149576214
Kek that is obviously him.
You should just admit it Zachy.
Chris woakes was being used as some sort of strike bowler first test
Really weird
I think >we basically have no bowling resources at all
Not sure why Ollie Robinson isn't playing desu
We've basically done to him what Pakistan have done to abbas. I think we don't consider him fast enough but he's way better than Josh tongue and that tattooed up saffer
>>149647134Woakes has something but he needs to be able to maintain it for the whole spell, once he can do 5-6 overs and not take an over at the start to loosen up he could be really good. If he can’t improve then he shouldn’t be opening but aside from Archer who’ve you got?
>>149647156unironically isn't
>>149647149you're wrong
I'm not zachy and even though it looks bad for him because he often posts tennis blogs, there are multiple tennis watchers in /cric/. I know because I'm one too (wasn't me though)
>>149647210Why lie?
Not like your posts are EVER cricket-related anyway. Your transition to r/bouldering failed, you crawled back here because you at least you know you are the poomunity's punching bag and its better than having no mates irl.
literally just posted a cricket related post you neekazoid
>>149647134Woakes is a steady first change bowler who gets in the team because he can (could) also bat a bit. his batting has gone south lately and he's not opening bowler tier. the rest are such shitters that stokes has been looking decent again
>>149647317Saying "you're wrong" is not cricket-related, sorry pal.
and I have around 11 mates actually
I don't think your VPNs count as mates x
>>149647362based bard at the end of the Worcestershire u16 trials
>>149647378kek that was mean
>>149647387Incredibly basic takes made after being accused of no longer being interested in cricket, hmmm really makes me think.
turns out (you)'re wrong
because it's impossible for any guy to have more than 3 actual mates. you could have 4+ associates but only 3 mates. also impossible to make new mates after 28
>>149647420better than any of your takes
boring neek
Do pozzies really? Kinda grim ngl
it's kind of impossible to make friends after 27 years of age yeah
stranger things have happened but it's very rare
>>149647453Non-sequitur, because at least I still follow cricket You just """"""""suddenly""""""" show an interest in discussing it instead of blogging after saying you are "not into cricket anymore". You lost cunt.
>>149647493it's easy in london but you chose to move to a place where the average age is 64 so of course it'll be hard
swear certain man claimed to have made a proper mate at the bouldering gym who was going to become his right hand man
not sure how that fizzled out
>>149647495Im still massively into cricket even though game's gone
Follow every test match and comment on them here frequently
I EVEN go to county games
I still believe in Project 2025: The zachy & hiba reunion
>>149647518yeah I kind of accept that, and I have made peace with it somewhat
London just isn't part of my DNA
>>149647536oh yeah I actually have tbf
well reminded
don't use certain man unless at start of sentence though
you just used certain man 3 words in

Lot of fat neeks ITT at the moment
>>149647662They need to fuck off. They aren't a test nation's clacker
>>149647680At least Alzarri Joseph went pure Windies T20 with 13 (4)
>>149647680cheeky statpad sesh for Aus
Windies aren’t far off though. The attack is good and the tail bats alright, if they had a couple of good batspersons they’d be right up there.
The captain is a good captain, and this is only his first series as captain
Sausage in bread not a sausage in a roll
Hot dog goes in a roll
The difference has been the middle orders, Australia has Head and Smith and Carey. Literally what the commentators are saying as I type
>>149647770Hot dogs go in buns mate not rolls
>>149647680in my humble view, there's not point of having any Australian series unless Kath is involved

>>149647943Look up hot dog roll, its the same thing as a hot dog bun. I don't know why you're trying to argue with me.
>>149647962I would deeply respect that kind of last two wickets rearguard action
this tennis player jarry must be the biggest tarq ever
peruvians are meant to be 5 foot 6 and brown but he looks like something from a Nazi laboratory on Titania
>>149647977There’s no such thing as a hotdog roll, it’s a bun. It’s not even an argument. Buns and rolls aren’t the same thing

he also looks very latino

he doesn't look south American desu
zero native in him
rather depressing series for west Indies
just no batting whatsoever
Australia have looked shit and West Indies have just been that much worse
the fact that /cric/ isn't calling Cameron Winter shit must mean they rate him
>>149648072Not really, this kind of thing leads to greater misunderstandings and confusion and hindrance of the purpose of language which is fundamentally to exchange ideas. You’re alright I feel better getting that off my chest please enjoy your coco pops

like a good version of nick cave
>Coach Brendon McCullum said England "probably" made a mistake in deciding to bowl first during their 336-run defeat by India in the second Test at Edgbaston.
>"I think as the game unfolded we probably looked back on that toss and said 'did we miss an opportunity there?' and it's probably fair," McCullum told BBC Test Match Special.
>"We didn't expect that the wicket would play quite as it did and hence we probably got it slightly wrong."
lol
not really sure where west Indies go from here
Doesn't look good for the Ashes for Britzoloids

>>149648840ok
enjoy your shitty dance music you sober neek
>>149648976 have you tried Jandek, fella¿
>>149648927Something like every county/shield etc from the test nations side takes on one minnow youth (u23s or younger) and he joins the squad for training and if he’s any good and ready he might get a few games. Only issue is it takes a spot from a local youth, but it might be alright and the benefits of exposing those young players to those coaches for the good of cricket

always backed zachy as he's the only one who attends /cric/ meets irl and once attended on his own then went back (proper protag behaviour). bard takes loads of mental health breaks and once said everyone on /cric/ was a loser, or something similar and thinks he's above meeting irl. he's also washed up as his 32 year old eyes and reflexes have taken away his front foot cut and he now just posts about wanting to go to india and sniff poo
