The Cricket Thread

[MJA]

There is a group of guys at Lords singing and chanting - I assume the members there will have these people banned?

 

[Super_horns]

Well that was comfortable.

 

[RavenBish]

It's unfair how talented Sam Curran is at 18. Thankyou Robert Mugabe (never thought I'd type those words)

 

[hodge]

Yorkshire doing a Somerset this season then

 

[Super_horns]

This partnership really is the key - Surrey break it and they go on to win.

Australia are actually going to win a game in Sri Lanka

Australia are actually going to win a game in Sri Lanka

In fact, they're 2-1 up in the ODI series now.

Another semi final bottled. Let's see if we can hold out and win the cc

 

[Super_horns]

Looks like Warwickshire are just going to edge their semi v Somerset.

Middle order collapse cost the latter as it did with Yorkshire.

Ian Bell with a decent knock in the Warwickshire innings.

 

[hodge]

Couple of dodgy LBW calls in that, Allenby and Davies harshly done by, other lbw's were silly by our players though.

 

[kieran_vale]

Great stuff from England so far. Nice to see Hales back to his best and Root just being his usual brilliant self.

Think minimum score of 350 for England should be the target.

 

[Saddlerrad]

Hales looking good on home turf.

 

[hodge]

And some people were saying they wanted Hales out of the ODI side....

 

[RavenBish]

Sat less than a mile away from Trent Bridge listening to it on TMS

 

[kieran_vale]

If he keeps going like this never mind 200 Hales could have a shot at pushing the world record score.

Pakistan just look completely helpless right now.

 

[Saddlerrad]

And some people were saying they wanted Hales out of the ODI side....

3 tons in 7 matches and part of probably the joint best ODI team in the world? No chance. He might be at risk in the tests, but dropping him from the ODI side would be clueless.

 

[JJH]

Highest ever individual score in an ODI by an Englishman, what a knock

 

[kieran_vale]

Out the ball after LBW sadly. Either way absolutely brilliant innings.

Try and push to 400 now.

 

[hodge]

13 overs, record individual ODI score in sight potentially?

Well that's what I get for not watching the game....

 

[RavenBish]

Buttler sent in 4th as well. Jugular.

 

[kieran_vale]

This is absolutely brutal from Buttler.

 

[JJH]

Records tumbling. Fastest ever ODI half century by an Englishman for Buttler. Incredible hitting.

 

[RavenBish]

Following this on BBC Sport and I'm disappointed any time the score doesn't get 6 added on to it after a delivery. Fucking striking.

 

[JJH]

Pakistan have been horrendous in the field.

 

[MJA]

This is just beautiful brutality from the England batsmen

 

[hodge]

Jos' record could be going as soon as it came....

 

[RavenBish]

I'm at Nott'm train station and there's already a few Pakistan fans on my platform ahaha

 

[hodge]

NO BALL

 

[JJH]

Buttler gone, oh wait, another no ball
