How do you get this autist out

Anyone ever scored a double century in both innings of a test?

You won't be "Britain" for much longer, that flag's gonna be all ours.

Dublin is the based second City of the based empire

definitely won't be happening

Australians are very change-averse
William is also extremely popular and who people think of when thinking about the royal family these days, the queen is almost an afterthought

>when your appeal is "how was that?" but it's actually said with intonation as a genuine question

cringing at this team of frauds

Dublin is pretty based

>rock the baby
what did wade mean by this?

How do England expect to take 20 wickets in a game when their spin option is moeen?

don't think it's realistic, you would declare before you could get a double ton in the second innings

Where's that retard cunt who was taking a giant steaming shit on Wade before?

Is Matthew Wade related to Jeremy Howe?

no it isn't

my point is that no one will give a fuck about charles. he could take a huge poo on a map of australia and people still wouldn't vote for a republic

not really the same

>"there's still plenty of spin in this pitch"
grim

Ha! You look pretty silly now don't ya dickhead.

Ehhh Wadey got his 50.

There were other issues with that referendum. A lot of republicans voted ‘no’ because no one explained what kind of republic we’d up looking like, and they didn’t want to give the gov carte blanche to create some crazy banana republic. Ultimately though is right - the country’s too conservative to do something that brave.

>"It's a shame we don't actually have any spin bowlers"
-t. England

this is the key issue with republicanism, there's no consensus on how it should be done. there's a lot more to it than just telling the queen to piss off

William's popularity doesn't mean shit if that old faggot pedo is on our coins. The only situation in which we stay is one in where Charles doesn't become king.

A couble have done triple 1st single in 2nd

yeah haha
but I still think he could crumble under real pressure throughout the series

Charles isn't as bad as people like to think, he's rather innocuous really. The only bad thing he did was possibly cheating on his wife but if she was doing that too then it's almost moot.
I don't think he's that offensive.

Legit question user but who are India's best bowlers outside of the 4 you have listed?

enjoyed these posts very witty

imagine if Lyon takes a 10fer in the second innings

Smith's miles away now

I'd still want the monarchy, the main reason is I think it just creates another useless position of government here (a "president" that doesn't actually wield real power"). At least the governor general knows they're useless
and then there's the issue of whether parliament or the people elect them, neither of which I want

Figures this is the first post I've made in weeks that displays the correct flag. Made me look like a right goose lads

yeah that's it. The beauty of keeping the monarchy is that nobody actually considers the Queen/ King to be our leader

gonna be a bit messy when lizzy goes even things like corps badges will need to be changed

Not necessarily. We could go a semi-Presidential system where the Pres and PM share power. Either way there’s a bit of an issue in Parliament atm around executive authority - our head of the executive also leads the legislative, which is technically exploitable. Could use a circuit-breaker in there, even if it is a mostly ceremonial President.

Not really. Just copy and paste the words governor general with president in all pieces of legislation

How the fuck does it "fall apart"!? LITERALLY NOTHING CHANGES, we just pretend she's still alive. The old girl doesn't even do anything.

For me, it's LG's OLED television range

No but that's the point, I don't think anyone wants an office of President that actually holds any executive power, it would be purely ceremonial
And why bother changing the system and having a highly paid position for that?

nobody wants to admit it but when she goes its an opportunity to overhaul everything and remove the final vestiges of colonial control - "no offence and everything but we were only doing it out of respect to the queen"

i fucking despise sky

When will they declare? 300 will be a big enough lead I reckon.

Thought she appoints the Governor General?

Think she needs to mail out some letters when people turn 100

>Had Aus 8/122

The absolute STATE of English cricket

/cric/ - a place for discussing the intricacies of state politics

It'd work. She can still sign off on whomever the parliament decide to appoint as governor general.

there's much more than that, the existence of a monarch goes right down to the roots of our common law. it's not something that's directly observable, but it would be a fundamental change that would have far reaching implications and potentially cause problems with older law

Great for watching cartoons with the kids.

Yeah I'm thinking Smith is based

Think the PM does

Who will we pay our land rates to?

why are you so obsessed with her lmao

Not since 1984 mate. The PM appoints the GG.

I can see a 350 lead at this rate.

They will bat out the day

Where is convict and goosey at lads?

Parliament chooses the governor general then the monarch basically just rubber stamps the appointment

She just says yes to whoever our govt requests. We just keep her as Queen after she dies, pretend she still says yes.

>who cares about tradition! just go with it goy!

If there’s a massive reformation of government after her death, it won’t be carried out by popular will. It’ll be carried out by a small clique of intellectuals who convince everyone else to come on-side, just like Federation. And luckily those who know how our system works know that it’s currently broken and that an empowered executive is the way to fix it.

Is Paine an attacking captain?

Look desu me neither, but if it takes shit as trivial as this to rekindle a bit of interest in test cricket from the T20 cult that exists now, I don't mind it.

Test probably have to do shit like this to survive long term unfortunately

nah you're overcomplicating it, a lot of those colonial vestiges have been dealt with over time like with the Australia Act 1986
A lot of what the governor general does is born out of convention anyway given that it was inconvenient for the king/queen to rule Australia from the other side of the world

joe poot

We just basically kept the English common law here. The only major difference is we have a lot of referendums now every time our parliament want to fuck around with the constitution or anything relevant really, and that's fine except we only get around 40% turnout on the referendums because people don't or cant give a fuck about anything anymore.

griget:DDDDDDDDDDDDD

I could live with the names, but no one recognises players by their numbers. Seems totally pointless.

There is no change. Queen Elizabeth stays our monarch forever.

lol fuck off psuedo intellectual cunt. If you think there's an issue with the executive you can tweak the PM's office, you don't need to raise the issue of a seperate office of President
Look at the UK, their PM holds more power than the US when they control both houses of parliament

Isn't it absolutely pathetic how weak-minded England are? It is so easy to rattle them.

lads, I'm going to be sending my resume to the ICC to get an umpiring gig next match.

Hey brah at least the quality is good enough to actually see the ball - unlike every other webstream.

Didn't there used to be one home umpire and one neutral, but it was changed to two neutrals?
I'd think having the one home umpire would make sense because he would ostensibly know the local conditions better than a foreign umpire.

is that why bumble said "oh dear"? missed it

Is DRS directly responsible for the shit umpiring standards of today? Especially their inability to call run-outs and no-balls without a TV replay.

It really isn’t fair that you have the best test batsman of all time. He should’ve been banned for life. Fuck Australia.

Root is such a dumb fucking captain, everyone's saying it. 250 is not going to be chased by this England team so now the cunts are just batting for a cushion - so fucking bowl 2ft outside off to a 7-2 or 6-3 field and make the cunts chase it and decrease the time you'll have to bat to save the test

Steve Smith has scored 286 runs in this test

He could stay in as a bat but seriously he's not a test quality keeper.

real question: how much is enough for a cheeky declaration bla

what's smoth's average now lads?

deserving of a (You)

because England got nearly 400 runs last innings. Smith knows Aussie bowling and fielding can be nearly as bad as ours today

300 probably, realistically they could declare now and still win.

Erm, prerequisite for being a man is having a penis?
They did allow a eunuch to play with the women, that in itself is scandalous.

For me, AFL is a novel game you only play during winter to keep fit for the next season of Cricket - a real game.

Yeah, I'm thinking this is based.

Imagine being defeated by an Australian who literally woke up from a year long coma not touching a cricket bat

concur x

350 is absolutely plenty and they can reach that in another hour of batting if they start slogging.

Correct opinion

>literally Arnold Schwarzenegger in a dress
>not a man

The AFL let a male to female transsexual play in their professional women's league, who basically kicked more goals than all the other players combined.

they're at 350 right now mate

Shared session I reckon

maybe in 2013. /nrl/ is irrelevant in these threads nowadays.

don't forget that even shaun marsh made tons in Australia when he was batting with Smith and there was no bowling pressure :)

always thought he had something, whether it was the cheeky banter or the wicket-keeping or the batsmanship x

My cash-out offer on an Australia win keeps falling even though the Australian run rate keeps rising. Are these deceitful cunts trying to panic me into abandoning my bet?

Reminder that Ponting had an average of 60 after playing over 100 tests

watching anime is a sign of an enormously small dick

you're alright

>rewatching

You're bumping the speed up to 1.25 - 1.5 right?

You can't just call up one of your cousins?

Wouldn't have a clue how to figure that out. I just remember Ponting's average being 60 during the 2006/07 ashes.

After a while your brain gets used to it and playing it on normal speed feels weird and slow.
The good thing about VLC is you can build the speed up slowly - 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 etc...

perturbed by your small dick
sort it out

Tbh his autistic frustration and agitation when batting in the first innings, especially his immediate running off the field when it was over, was one of the most impressive things I've seen in cricket. The guy didn't seem to care about anyone else in the ground.

>Implying England can survive all of the 5th day
The difference between the sides will be that Australia actually have a specialist spin bowler.

Indeed. Although there could be rain for a draw.

>*marries a filthy islander*

why don't you come and sort it out big boy ;)

absolute state

Can confirm. I watch anime and my dick is only 6".

nah get i get put off by small dicks
shove off

He’s undeniably incredible. Will go down as an all time great even with the ban etc

Can confirm, I watch some animé and I'm slightly above average.

Don't think the forecast is worsening though. It was actually supposed to rain a fair bit today but that doesn't look to be happening.

His economy rate is actually slightly lower than the CRR so it's not that bad a choice. Obviously he's not going to get many wickets but England have given up on that.
