Re: God help me - the Test Cricket thread - Professer E - 06-17-2023
When batters can drive a bloke like Boland's natural length through the off side with impunity, Im sorry but that's a crap pitch. That said, I thought our field positions and bowling was rubbish at times, the amount of times Cummins and Lyon got worked away on the legside..... Aaaaargh. I know they were trying to bowl stump to stump but it was too easy for blokes to get off strike.

Please retire Warner, you're embarassing yourself

I suspect the Ollie Robinson spray gives us an insight into the discomfort the Poms feel being kept out in the field, they look to have become a bit too use to 5 minute cricket, and I think if our squad is smart it will take the grind to a whole new level!
I think our current mix of bowlers are just the right antidote for Bazball, Starc tendancy to be a leaky ship might have played into the Pommie upper orders hands. Pin the Poms down and they go from Lions to Sheep!

Robinson is a disgrace with his outburst and England paid for their pitch doctoring tactics. The former should be suspended for the next test for that abuse he delivered...

People might call me old fashioned but it was apalling, and his discussion afterwards was gibberish.
They're not exactly a classy mob this group of pommies.

Id love to beat this mob to shove it right up them but our history in this situation is not good.
