chaddyrovers Posted May 12, 2024 Posted May 12, 2024 Jimmy Anderson will retire from Test matches after the first test but carry playing for Lancs for the season. What a proper legend and I will remember him forever. He is fantastic and legend of English cricket Quote

Exiled_Rover Posted May 12, 2024 Posted May 12, 2024 Actually embarrassing from Lancs. They need to start investing some of their vast wealth into the playing squad - they're likely to get relegated from the County Championship this season. 2 Quote
Bronzed A Donis Posted May 12, 2024 Posted May 12, 2024 You can tell where the priority lies if you go on the website , it's all about eventing, corporate stuff, cricket seems secondary in priorities. 2 Quote

It absolutely is. They had Allott on the SKY broadcast last week - he was waxing lyrical about the new hotel and the fact the Foo Fighters were coming to town in the summer.

Norbert Rassragr Posted May 14, 2024 Posted May 14, 2024 I'd love Jimmy Anderson to try his hand at bowling coach for Lancashire primarily, and then join the England set up. He'll go straight into the England set up though. I think working with the young lads in the county game rather than just the top guys would be better in the long run. 1 Quote

ABBEY Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 Nope .. boring chav cricket at the expense of test cricket...when's the next test. Quote
chaddyrovers Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 Good world cup so after. England lost yesterday and we clearly let the Aussies scored 40 more runs than we should have done. I still think Brook should be batting 4 and Livingstone at 5. Boundaries are smaller and we need our big hitters in the top 5. Quote
chaddyrovers Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 Hoping for a good game between India and Pakistan Quote
AllRoverAsia Posted June 9, 2024 Posted June 9, 2024 I'm watching quite a bit of it. Whomever put Jacks on to bowl that 2nd over yesterday should be back home by now. India out for 119 so Pakistan in with a good chance on a drying wicket. I quite like the look of South Africa but the Aussies will take some stopping and India won't bat again as badly as they have tonight. 1 Quote

AllRoverAsia Posted June 13, 2024 Posted June 13, 2024 (edited) Jacks ... FFS go home. Despite him we got the NRR above Scotland Edited June 13, 2024 by AllRoverAsia 1 Quote
oldjamfan1 Posted June 14, 2024 Posted June 14, 2024 (edited) Amazing how that font of all knowledge Ian Ward had absolutely no fucking idea how the net run rate system worked. How could a win as comprehensive as England's not significantly improve the NRR (which is what that clown insisted was the case until the stats men put up the updated group table)? Stealing a living! I still think the convicts will throw the game against the jocks to knock us out. I would if the roles were reversed. If they'll sandpaper a ball I'm sure they'll give catching practice to the Scots fielders. Edited June 14, 2024 by oldjamfan1 Quote
AllRoverAsia Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 Coming up to 5.30 am local time. Up late watching England v Namibia. I may as well have breakfast, take the cat for a walk and then watch what the Aussies do. I think they go for the win as usual, they don't fear us. At least I hope that's what happens but you can't really rely on convict offspring. 2 Quote
Mattyblue Posted June 16, 2024 Posted June 16, 2024 A World Cup in a region’s rainy season. Nice one ICC 👏 4 Quote
AllRoverAsia Posted June 16, 2024 Posted June 16, 2024 3 hours ago, Gav said: Well done the Aussies 🏏 At least 5 dropped catches, sloppy lazy fielding, long hop bowling, Maxwell doing a brilliant impression of a full blooded Scot. Fortunately there were enough Aussie batsmen who wanted the win and they put them over the line. Having said that I no not think there was any Aussie plan to chuck the game, rather a lax approach and under estimating and good Scotland side. 2 Quote

oldjamfan1 Posted June 20, 2024 Posted June 20, 2024 Very good performance by England overnight in the T20 WC. Absolutely battered the West Indies and if they carry on playing like that are in with a shout of retaining the trophy. Quote
