Hope we get to see Woakes hobbling down the stairs with England needed like 15 runs to win or some shit, proper cricket that

>>150081246
"Channel 4" they could call it

well i have to go do family stuff in five minutes so hopefully nothing interesting happens while i'm gone

>This is only the second time Harry Brook has scored 400 runs in a Test series - remarkable given he scored 317 in the first innings of the Pakistan tour last year. He finished that tour with 373 runs.
A very believable stat considering he should already be out

>standing up to cheer because you all thought England would have been skittled out before now.

>India batting
Seam movement
Unven bounce

>England batting
Easy batting

I've actually seen so many highlights of that series by now that it would be more interesting to just show completely random unedited bits of the 2005 Ashes instead.

It'd be nice not coming back into the room after getting the drink and thinking there had been a wicket for 5 or so seconds before you notice it's a replay.

Despise this naming trend. I like that AFL has normal team names like you can find in English football.

Looks like it's ok to stop watching now.

Kate Ritchie for me

>>150081908
she wasn't even an actress until the sex tape, she was a minor reporter for Richard and judy (a pair of daytime tv cunts) and got that from sucking dick as her bf was a presenter as well. Then after the sex tape she got fired and then did softcore porn before "becoming an actress"

Lol how insecure you have to be to counterjinx when your team is comfortably winning.

genuinely rooting for Root

Just looked up that sex tape and euurgh she's licking a black woman's fanny god knows what's been up there.

That’s a motorcycle

When do India offer a draw?

India need a win, they know that right?

India are going to bottle this and lose another series.

Imagine getting spazzed by Brook kek

series will end today. your favourite shitpost?
my commentary that Archer used the swing of his massive BBC to make a lunging sideways dive for his catch and bowl of Washington Sundial got a bit of attention.

Which Indian would you milk?

Exciting end to the Carse-Deep series

>>150081997
what sex tape

You now remember Siraj deliberately stepping on the boundary

Bring back saliva and ball tampering. this has gone too far.

It’s been a good and, entertainingly at times close fought series, a pleasure to have followed it (not watched) with the /cric/bros. It’s been a journey lads

we should declare now to solidify our winning the story narrative

India should just bowl underarm for the next 5 or so hours.

Tbh we were second best for large parts of this series, I don't like this result but it's also not surprising. Loosing both Pant and Bumrah for the last test also doesn't help but whatever, England lost stokes and Woakes too

Google has England at 80%

how come they're stopped chirping, are they morning birds?

I work with social workers (many of whom work with sex offenders) who often use the term pedophile to describe molesters and I often have to correct them. Something which they don't like.

There are plenty of people struggling with pedophilia, something they never asked for and would probably do pretty much anything if they could get rid of it, who never have and never will touch a child or consume CP.

There are child molesters who are not pedophiles, there are pedophiles who are not child molesters.

People need to be more aware of this, because when you say pedophile you are including people who have never and will never commit this crime, in the description of these monsters

>>150082612

Hopefully Stokes has the sense to rotate him and Archer in the Ashes for one another with Archer playing the first test.

archer is being rested for this test so his bbc is fully charged for the first test and half the second test in australia

did you heed this anons words in /cric/ after the last ashes?

the clock is ticking lads....

>>150082825
Nope lol :(

if we had bumrah this game would already be over

If this shit gets rained out to a draw...

>>150083031
KPs style of batting

Bumrah averaged 40 against the English top 7 in this series btw.

Can’t remember who it was but somebody started around the corner kicking in rugby (probably in league, possibly a Frenchman)

not been following the Test today and just checked the score, I assume our indian friends are taking it well?

>>150083031
Adam Gilchrist.

>>150083031
the pakis who worked out how to make the ball reverse swing

Also Gill's tactics are questionable, he has proven his merit as a batsman this series (?) but his skippering future is still uncertain.

>>150083260
>Round the corner kicking was invented in the 1940s by Willie Horne, the Barrow, Lancashire, England and Great Britain captain and rugby league player

bazball is just t20 approach but in test cricket. It truly spells the death knell of actual "cricket".

replying without post number is the fosbury flop of /cric/

>>150083373
only crusty old boomers get angry. imagine any other sport where scoring more quickly is considered bad

Chances the Indian plane will be flown into a slum in disgrace when they return?

>>150083373
I think it's the way forward, you've got to think that batsmen are losing test skills and patience after participating in t20 slogfests for 10 months of the year. Rather score runs before you eventually get dismissed for your own incompetence.

It wasn’t seen in union for a generation until a Welshman, likely a retired rugby league player returning home to Wales to take up a teaching/coaching position
>Round/around the corner kicking used in rugby for kicking penalties and converting tries, was originated at Lewis School, Pengam, Glamorgan during the 1962/63 season in an under 14's rugby union match between Pengam and Yr Graddfa, by Terry Dipple scrum-half for the Pengam team.

>>150083333
not simple enough

>>150083430
cheeky fuel cut off by captain s. gill

>>150083430

Batting at a higher sr on a minefield just makes sense, it's a wonder anyone ever managed to chase anything on day 5 pitches outside of subcontinent roads.

>letting England get within a hundred
>>150083430
>scoring quickly
also losing wickets quickly, having no approach other than chasing balls and slogging it to cow corner, wearing your bowlers into the ground because they have no recovery time because the batting shat the bed, being heavily reliant on several players because the rest are shit.

coooor proper pukka pie that

being able to easily chase down near 400 in the 4th innings is gonna kill cricket a million times more than fast scoring.

ECB will be fuming about missing out on day 5 ticket sales, they might send word out to slow things down a bit

can't believe so many Indian fans came all the way to England to see their team lose

why have pukka pies ever been allowed to get as famous as they are? pies are fucking awesome but pukka pies are a disgrace to the name.

>>150083569
Just think of all the extra flights they must have put on!

>>150083569
I don't think there are that many from Scotland and Wales.

This is hilarious

>>150083569

>>150083541
England are going to chase it down because Gill has only three seamers who have been bowled into the ground and are completely worn out due to his earlier tactics.

>>150083442
The way I see it is t20 is the gateway cricket for casuals and children, very much what’s already been seen in the past with one day limiters overs cricket.
Most of us, myself included, have childhood memories of one day cricket and how exciting it was and later we matured into lovers of test cricket and I see that will occur again with the current younger generations coming through.
Test cricket also has the advantage of making more money on concessions (food and drink at the ground) and because it goes longer there’s more advertising opportunities, test cricket is the pinnacle of cricket in every conceivable way

a good innings from brook
but not necessarily a brainful one

even as a kid i thought pyjama cricket was fucking shit

>>150083658
he actually curbed some of his bazzing instincts, pulled downwards to krishna quite a bit

>>150083616
They should just come up with a way of making non-stop cricket work at a pro-level

>you scored 400 but it only took you 80 overs instead of 200? doesn't count

a cricket mad nation of a billion plus and yet you can't find bowlers to defend 370 plus no less than twice in a series
POOTHETIC

Bazball only came about because modern batting was absolutely cooked by t20 already.

I just have a feeling Root is going to miss his century

Who has the best foward defensive in cricket today?

When prime West Indies smashed a massive chase with Gordon Greenidge walloping the ball all over, it was soul. Same when the AusGods won that Adelaide test in 2006.
England doing it sucks and it is killing test match cricket. This is not okay.

>>150083725
The match should have been awarded to India when a lowly groundman thought he has the right to talk to the Indian staff (who are clearly his betters).

I loved it because it was something I could stay up late to watch during the school holidays. We’d play cricket or go swimming during the days, go to the movies for the a/c when it was really hot, and have bbqs all weekend. Don’t know what you Poms were doing as children in summer probably digging coal or pickpocketing

>>150083725
If this England side could bat sensibly they'd have an innings victory, but they can't hence why they first innings lead was pitiful. They don't play "cricket" because they can't so play t20.
>>150083851
unironically

It's debatable as to whether this was even the biggest choke from India in this series

>>150083882
no its still Lord's

>>150083865
>probably digging coal or pickpocketing
hahaha got a chuckle out of me

do NOT let this Test chase distract you from the fact the Women's Hundred starts at 14:45 on Tuesday

>>150083882
Those Indian pundits saying it was "90% India's match" this morning on 5 live...

Wasn't there a time in ODIs where players had strike rates of 60-70 is? Why did that change?

>>150083876
>If this England side could bat sensibly they'd have an innings victory
didn't they have a ridiculously bad record before bazball when root was captain?

>>150083921
WinViz had England at 1% even before Crawley got out last night

>>150083921

Took a nap and missed most of the first two sessions. Narrative status?

>>150083978
saar your ass is blasted

>>150083952
It's always possible but once you're getting to below 10 runs a wicket the bowlers start to give up.

>>150083926
I think it was the Sri Lankan openers in the late 90’s, the fielding restrictions used to be for the first 15 overs so their strategy was come out and whallop it they used to touch on rr of 10-12. After that the stupidity of power plays came in but the genie was out of the bottle so to speak

>>150083946
exactly my point

>>150084000
England winning against tired Indian bowling on a batting friendly pitch.

>>150083978
even pozzstralia doesn't lose to this shit team and its only the third sport there

>>150084042
so if they didn't baz and they also didn't bat how they normally bat before bazball they'd win by more. didn't think of that

Still better than watching spastics dancing because of car insurance and goyslop that will no doubt be on Sky Sports however

bethell nearly tripped on his umbilical cord coming out

>>150084302
I noticed that as well.

>>150084168
tiredness kicks in and generally the last 15 or so runs tend to be slow as fuck so you feel pressured to just hit it. No one wants to be the slow 120 in a winnable match that ended up being drawn.

Anyone know where I can watch a stream of this?

test cricketers are chosen from first class cricket. It’s a legitimate argument to compare those; number of clubs/provinces/states and registered players, facilities and coaching.
Arguing that the total population is the same as the talent pool is absolutely absurd

phew

KWAB

He fast!

>arguing that a country with 1.37 billion more people who have cricket as their first sport might have more players to choose from is retarded

That's the kind of "drop" which destroys all the motivation of the bowlers.

Chalk, please.

>slippy d

>>150084492
>If I keep denying it its simply not true

this zoomer has contributed 1 run in 10 balls, I think he needs his head kicking

>>150084112
No, my point is that they're (Brook, Crawley, Duckett, Smith and Bethell) t20 players and so don't have a pragmatic and sometimes the necessary defensive play, which is alien to them. They throw their wickets away too easily, they're only approach to spin is to slog. They lack patience and stamina. It doesn't come simply down to having a high sr.
>>150084393
England has a much smaller talent pool than India as a proportion.

Business: schedule 5 tests back-to-back with no breaks between any of the games. Winning the series simply becomes a matter of who has the higher population.

Just leave the remaining runs to Root

Jacob Bethell is Welsh

Males are just over 51% of the population in India, so this is 700m. 20% are dalits and will never be selected, giving 560m. Maybe half of those are above 35 years of age. So India has 280 million cricketers to choose from but their best 11 still can't beat our shit team.

Jacob Bethell is Barbadian.

Can't see that being out

India probably have a few vegetarians in the squad that don't supplement creatine
No wonder they are going to lose

>>150084658
Yes I did. But luckily JE Root is saving England once again.

>>150084518
>>150084532
England has 18 fc teams in the County Championship
India has 38 fc teams in the Ranji Cup.

Those are the equivalent teams numbers. After this you should compare the respective quality of facilities and equipment and coaching, I’d guess India are still ahead but it’s nowhere near the same ratio as by population

>>150084661
how come cameras no longer cut to Indian fans in the stands like they did every 30 seconds in third test?

>>150084677
I would have thought cow urine is a good source of creatine?

Australia's first innings of the Ashes

Reheating some curry
Powder it's rice and mini naans and maybe a potato

England and Australia will be ranked 1 and 2 going into the Ashes (probably)

>>150084743
made a simple chilli this morning, been letting the flavours develop

>>150084688
Yes but the way the systems work isn't the same in England and India. Ranji teams have a much bigger talent pool because they can basically pick any registered player in their region and Counties have contracts.

looks like they've finally blocked my iptv provider

cut out about 20 minutes ago on everything, works fine over vpn - cunts

anyone told Bethell we aren't playing for the draw?

>>150084785
He's just absorbing the strike and letting Root score. Plus he has played basically no cricket this season.

good idea to have Nas pretend to be a boomer looking up wtf "the hundred" is

I thought the hundred was a tv show about the rapture

County cricket is funny because they fill their teams with imports and actually try to make money and win games shit. Every other FC league is purely development for the national side

proper food

To make test matches quicker why dont they just have a big bbq set up at the edge of the pitch and you can go grab a banger and a lamb chop whenever you're a bit hungry? No need for lunch and tea then

Test cricket is better than a good book

>passenger car seat

cowardly Indian rain

>>150084822
It’s because the county teams are private companies and not like the state teams where they’re just the team of the state association, the county development boards are separate from the county clubs. Traditionally the CCCs are just member owned, and it’s how most still are, except Hants, Northants and Durham which are all private ownership now. Most are in big debt, and the money making is why one-day was brought in in the 60s and then T20 in this century.

Raining poo

The Indians should perhaps try and get some wickets here

Has this pointless delay been manufactured just so they could show that segment?

>sports

Gonna be glad when this series is over and I don't have to see the little gay noisy Vitality dog anymore

Just have no idea where to buy clothes anymore, too complicated

Sausages alone aren't really my thing

>>150085108
No the Indians were unhappy with how wet they got in the rain and felt like it had taken several layers of spices and dried turd off their skin so have locked themselves in until they can get back to an appropriate level of aroma.

>>150085098

Love a sausage and your mum loves mine champ

how about this sausage

>>150085147
Yeah, I mean that’s the thing right there’s already t20 and making another slightly more shit and less cricketing version of it would seem on the face of it to be unnecessary when t20 could do with the marketing itself and a marginally longer season

Hope england win, but also Hope Bethell gets out before >we win as he is Welsh (West Indian)

>>150085183
They made it just so they could sell it. The Blast isn't nearly as spectacular as the other main two franchise leagues (The IPL and the BBL). They are greedy and want their £1million commission.

>>150085203

>even the most ADD, titktok brained children will love 15 minutes of cricket!
Give it 10 years and they will be doing "T5" with 3 games back to back like baseball or switching to indoor cricket rules so people can baz away every ball without the pesky issue that the good batters might be out first ball and ruin it

>>150085222
no reputable butchers sells sausages like that

>>150085179
too soon mate, lost too many celebrities this year

>>150085229
Australian sausages are usually beef and nice, it’s not allowed to add sawdust and newspaper to them by law

just got hacked bro even though it's a body clone I know
stranger things have happened!

>>150085237
Essentially it will become a home run comp.

>>150085239
why not?

they're loose on the counter, you pick how many you want, they bag them up - not really that much difference to the white bag/wrapping they usually stick them into

>>150085247
Meh beef sausages just don't get hit the same as porky boys

>>150085237
they are discussing making the Hundred a T20 competition within a few years time, likely spelling the end of the Blast

>>150085239
every one I've been to uses a plastic bag, either zipped or tied off.

ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

>>150085331
Must be a regional thing

>>150085331
i've not seen them like that myself, but it's not that much different?

if anything it's a bit better as you don't need to tear the bag open and need to find your own container or bag to store the rest in that are left over

>>150085279
It wouldn't be the hundred then would it.

onya pooty just do this down under as well haha

>>150085341
Jagger shagged more women and had more kids and is currently married to a much younger ballerina. He's also not dead.

mick jagger and Paul McCartney are narcissistic neeks who both kicked men out the band because they got more wolf whistles than they did
one of the main reasons I will never listen to that boomer shite

So the hundred is just a scheme to wrest t20 away from the county clubs

>>150083851
Unlike England, those teams won most of their matches.

In essence, someone who is down-to-earth:
- Has a good grasp of reality and deals with situations in a realistic manner.
- Is approachable, humble, and easy to relate to
- Avoids putting on airs or acting superior to others.
- Is often described as having common sense.

he did the same thing for the english bowlers.

how do they get a scoreboard to float in the air like that? drones?

>>150085844
Do you have the canned beetroot or is it all fresh?

They need to stay in for a further 5 or 6 overs and they’ll get the runs as the bowlers adrenaline wears off. This is happening because of the tea break and Brooks being a dumb cunt

>>150085881
im an expat
i dont even like cricket much but i get these rich arrogant indians hassling me when england play so i thought id get some ammo to fuck them off

Overton is going to bottle this, why did they pick him?

Karthik’s fashion segment really swung the momentum of the game

What a suprise this team is weak minded when you have spackers lime Trescothick who had to retire from mental cookery

Can't get behind this England team. Look t the two batsman, with the collars turned up like scruffy school boys. This is England test cricket and you should present yourself as such. If it was up to me i wouldnt even allow them to have facial hair but maybe i am quite extream. India proper gentleman, apart from the that hoodlam with the chain. India win and show the Englishman we're number one.
