[Closed] STW TMS

Oops

Well we have scored a couple of runs after lunch and not given up another wicket so things are looking up a bit

Oh dear, Oh dear.......I blame the weather! 😯

OMG! 😯

I think I'll stick to watching the Aussies!

Steady on zokes!

Not the best of starts really. We've played really badly so far, timid and poor shit selections. Still, long way to go.

Where's psychle? Do they have Internet in oz?

I forgot it had started already, looks like it's almost over now... 😉

Blowers is on! All is well with the world!

Steady on zokes!

I know, I now feel dirty for saying that!

EDIT: Scratch that - Morgan out - muppets. They're making Australia look like gods...

OH FFS!

possibly poor shit selection, definitely poor shot selection, maybe even shit shot selection.

I'm going for 138 all out.

As discussed about PK - how the hell to you play a premeditated block?

STW TMS WTF?

😆

Why does my phone autocorrect shot to shit???

Need to watch that.

And lol at juan!!!! Your life is less complicated (and possibly better) for not knowing 🙂

Juan - it's Cricket , TMS = Test Match Special.

Hey, the French are one of the few teams to have played cricket at the Olympics!

Hundred up, when will we declare d'you think?

I once went to a match between the MCC and the French cricket team. In France. Was ace!

France lost. Hard. 🙂

Why does my phone autocorrect shot to shit???

It probably knows about the current England match.

Well done Prior. I doubt we'll see the day out which might mean 10 overs at them tonight. If Tremlett and Jimmy can knock a couple over we might still be in this.....

ok so england cant bat lets see if they can bowl

192 ao. Not as bad as it could have been, but still piss poor

Hmmm - now then, can we still bowl?

Maybe we should of practiced spin a bit more in the Nets. Could of been out for less than 100 at one point. Come on Anderson et al skittle em out!

they sure play a mean spin-ball

there has got to be a twist.
A spin ball wizard,
S'got such a supple wrist.

Or listen to Tommy the Rock Opera !

Won't get fooled again?

Cripes - looks like we're toast...

Yep, time to bend over.

Rule Britannia, we're into the tail now!!!

One of the best things about winter in the UK:
Cold, dark morning, car all warm, and TMS on the radio for the drive to work.

😆 genius Yossarian I had to look at the Beeb site in anticipation of a huge collapse, bugger 😆

Sorry 😀

Now we're somewhere near the tail...

an excellent finish to the day, if we can polish off the tail sharpish and play the spin not the bowler then we might still be in this one.

Hopeful chaps - 100 behind on first innings?

Game in the balance? The two wickets at the end swung the game slightly towards England, but ****stan should be the favourites. However a lead of 150 may not be enough, especially batting in the fourth innings. Still they are likely to get a result - 17 wickets in two days so far.

Just need the English batsman to remember how to bat. Given that KP and Eoin seem to have have forgotten how - perhaps Strauss, Cook and Trott should just spend some time in the middle.

aye certainly a game to be played now

Any way to get highlights without having Sky?

One of the pirate feeds? this one normally has good sky feeds

oh dear

Really not sure that was out.

Errrmmmmmm
thi is as bad as being a Scotland rugby fan 🙁

I might have to find an aussie ancestor

They're on form down here. Reporting on D1 when England got hammered they gave it 5 mins of news; reporting on D2, when it looked like we may have extricated ourselves a little, about 10 seconds 😆

innings defeat anybody?

yip innings defeat
who would have thought it

Painful.

should we not just declare now and save the embarrassment?

G'day, cobbers.

😳

oops

quadruple face palm anyone?

hey 3 to go keep the faith TJ ...they could get bowled out 1 all out?

Inept batting performance in both innings. Bowled ok, fielded ok but batted like schoolboys.

Not panic stations but the majority of the top order need to have a word with themselves.

from the beeb text commentry

There's no such thing as a certainty in sport, but I can safely say either ****stan are going to win this very shortly, or you're about to read the most exciting hour of text commentary in the history of cricket.
