Cricket - England in India

Only two* wickets down so far.




*Technically it's one but Pope is batting now.

 

I suggest Alistair Cook gets his pads on sharpish

 

Stokes gets his 50 up…

 

Got impatient, got out.
Probably all over for us.

 

That does seem to have ****ed it, let's see what Foakes can do

 

Just 75 to get now...

 

61 needed tomorrow. Root on 77.

 

England win what a glorious Jubilee this is

 

Don’t ruin a rare English sporting victory by bringing up that family of benefit scrounging immigrants, there’s a good chap. Thanks awfully.

 

A couple of days of heavy rain is our only hope in this one.

 

Stop. Stopme. Just stop.

 

Today was the first time a New Zealand wicket keeper scored a century against England.

 

Prepare for a summer of **** stats.

 

I like the stats, they connect the game today all the way back to the 19th century. You get to hear about these characters long since dead which is very interesting.

 

The ones who batted for a fortnight, steadily accumulating 12 runs a day.

We could do with one of those now.

 

Talking of which: when are the BBC going to bring Sir Geoffrey back?

 

Thought he died?

 

Sorry to disappoint but he's still with us, though never likely to hear him speak again as he doesn't fit with your New Woke Order agenda. Instead we get the journalism graduate Alison Mitchell.

 

He has a really grating voice tbh, quite happy not have to hear him ever again.
