Been thinking about what was going through Jason Roy's head a lot. There you are, opening for your nation, needing to bat for 200+ balls to give them any chance of holding out for a draw. At the end of the crease you see the world's best off spinner in his element on a battered 5th day pitch. As it comes out of his hand he notices it's short of the length, and being the big brained fucker he is charges it only to get clean bowled. What was running through his head as he made his fateful journey down the crease? the fucking cunt

Not just talking about appearance, and I'm also referring to both men and women.
Maybe the ones who actually live in India are better somehow, but as someone who spent most of his life living in areas that are full of Indian first/second generation immigrants, they are the most pitiable human beings you will ever meet.

Jofra Archer is a fraud

I know three Indians who are absolutely gorgeous, two from India and one from South Africa. I also once got with this 9/10 half black half indian girl.

many are ugly not all are. they're easily better than SEA monkeys on average and central asians

granted I mostly know catholic indians who apparently all tend to be from the same region of India

What region?

Kerela, Goa

dunno I just know it's a thing

Goa maybe?

Weird how so many people on Yea Forums know about Goa and the ones I meet IRL have never even heard of it.

Cant wait later this year lad when real cricket starts up here in Aus. Which country/countries are touring Aus. Are SA due again or is it another sub continent team?
Probably mid 70s
I mean look at the scores Aussies were posting at that time and compare how they were agaisnt smith today and you will see Smith would still dominate

Most of what I know of Goa is it is full of Israelis on holiday doing psychedelic drugs once they've served their time in the IDF

Australia vs New Zealand this summer

New Zealand are coming for tests which should be good

Pakistan in November and NZ over Christmas I think?

monkeygate and the streaker incident

Not only Goa they're everywhere in India. I went to Himachal couple months ago, full of them. I was the only Indian at my stay among jews. Their music is good though.

I think there is

saw something about Archer taking 6/27 on facebook

the Indian who moved to Australia is a Goan I'm pretty sure

DELET THIS

I think if the grandparent was born in Goa up until a certain year whenever Portugal stopped counting they're eligible that way

That's me lad. I'm talking about this poster

very odd

wonder if it was the same for the East Timorese, surely would have caused diplomatic issues for Indonesia and Australia

Was only the second XI, he's playing for fitness.

>It is said that the Portuguese rulers had conferred the Portuguese nationality on the Goans born in Goa prior to December 1961, and their children and grandchildren. That means every Goan born in the state of Goa prior to December 1961 becomes a citizen of Portugal by birthright, and the same is applicable for their children and grandchildren,

Might be eligible because my grandparents were born there

thinking about paying for an Irish citizenship to get EU access

Irish parents?

Northern Irish, but apparently you can claim either United Kingdom or Irish citizenship off that. They both took UK citizenship since they thought it'd be easier to come over here on that, so who knows if I still have the option.

You do mate, you're Irish if either of your parents is Irish and we don't discriminate against the north.
You can be both UK and Irish citizen, and Australian as well

Probably a good idea to apply for either one

Don't see why not I have a British passport also incase i need the SAS to come rescue me from some Taliban shithole.

Wew I didn't realise the absolute extent of England's sporting ineptitude that it even reaches peegue.15 peegue World Cups have been held and Grimland hasn't won a single one.
Anyway switch codes to the superior pooniun you thick cunts.

Is union more popular than league? If so, why?

I have unrivaled sexual prowess

Jimmy pretending to be fit has cost us the Ashes

He should never be picked again

Wanted to ask whether England still have an unironic chance because I'm too new to the sport (started watching beginning of WC) but I'll get meme answers won't I

I don't know
It's effectively the same sport (a try in union is 5 points, in league it's 4)
But for some reason everyone who likes rugby likes Union whilst League is only liked by West Australia, Northern England and Papua New Guinea.

Very strange.

They have more than a chance but post-World Cup mentality is the biggest issue.

yes. union is more inclusive with both technical ability and athleticism, league is only accessible to the fittest and fastest. union is just so set up to be appealing to a wider audience.
it's slimming rapidly. the team needs a lot of changes for the second test and there's not a lot of test-worthy players.
if fates your thing - the last two times england lost the first test but went onto win the series was in 1981 and 2005 which were both pretty miraculous to say the least.

There are still 4 games left. England could probably draw the series. After all they are the home team.

Fair enough, heard them talking about that

Hmm, so against the odds but far from impossible

True, I'd guess that's as big an advantage in cricket as it would be in almost all sports

>England could probably draw the series
but then the pozztralians retain the ashes

They have to beat Australia 2-0 or 3-1 at least in the remaining tests in order to regain the Ashes. When you think about it like that it sounds highly unlikely. When England lost the first Test in 2005 they fucking dominated the rest of the series (would've won 4-1 if not for the rain) so let's hope they can do it again.

problem is this team is mostly quite rubbish

So are Australia. Tbh if Anderson had been fit in the first Test I think Australia would have been skittled for

>When England lost the first Test in 2005 they fucking dominated the rest of the series (would've won 4-1 if not for the rain) so let's hope they can do it again.

no they did not, all the games were fairly close which is why it was a memorable series. The 5th test could've been anyone's game if it wasn't for the rain.

>no they did not, all the games were fairly close
This, I didn't see "domination". 2nd test was very close to an Aus win and that would've made it 2-0.

I don't see it as post-world cup mentality, our test team and ODI teams are way too different. Root seems impervious in ODIs and scores centuries for fun but when it comes to test he becomes a psychologically cooked choker like the rest of them.

Their test problems were still issues far before the world cup. Morgan I think makes a massive difference in terms of his captaincy to the ODI team, whereas Root is just a weak captain 2bh. His batting has also suffered a lot since (he was averaging higher than Williamson/Kohli when he took it on but now he has dropped

>They have to beat Australia 2-0 or 3-1 at least in the remaining tests in order to regain the Ashes. When you think about it like that it sounds highly unlikely.
So as I say I am new to this - to me it only really seemed to me that Moeen Ali was the true weak link being mentioned by commentators over and over. Anderson too but he's out anyway.
Roy they said is far more suited to ODI but if he were to have played as though it were an ODI on the day he could've done far better than he did - so couldn't it mainly be a mentality dragged down by a poor Ali combined with a WC hangover?

That's a fair clarification. It was far from a great World Cup overall for England, issues were there to see throughout.

>all the games were fairly close
Apart from the 1st Test, Australia were constantly chasing the game. England had the 2nd and 4th Tests seemingly in the bag before Australia created some drama by almost turning it around, although in the end they didn't make it. The 3rd Test wasn't really close, Australia could only hope to draw.

>The 5th test could've been anyone's game if it wasn't for the rain
Australia were chasing 342 to win. Would have been the highest ever run chase at that ground by some distance.

>When England lost the first Test in 2005 they fucking dominated the rest of the series (would've won 4-1 if not for the rain)
Most likely wouldn't have won at all if McGrath didn't miss the 2 tests England won.

Moeen Ali is weak because his confidence is shot. Batting-wise he is useless these days but used to be pretty handy, but they picked him for his bowling. He lacked the consistent line and length required of a test spin bowler because they didn't let him settle. I think he's toast now as he's just lost it mentally.

Anderson is not a weak link, he was just injured. He's by far our best bowler and in English conditions easily the best bowler in the world. Losing him will hurt.

Roy can't play his natural game in tests because it's a completely different game. In ODIs England rolls out flat tracks that are favoured for batsman, Roy completely dominates on these surfaces. In tests England tends to roll out bowling friendly pitches (not to mention the duke ball they use is also bowling friendly). That combined with his aggressive technique makes people say he is unsuited to opening in tests, as it's nowhere near as favoured for him as it is in ODIs.

Really it's Bairstow and Ali that I think need the chop at the moment. Roy can be useful I think further down the order - ironically I think he'd be really good in Australia because he is very strong vs pace and the ball doesn't move much down there.

kek I'm sure you'll accept the same logic with Jimmy being injured this series

Yeah it was pretty dire. Oh well

Fair enough. Ali really did just look terrible. I really appreciated this btw, was good insight

No chance. England have used up all their umpire bias credits

Weird how Aussies have been participating in the Ashes banter in good spirit whilst the Kiwis have been bellends. Can't think what we've done to wind them up

But have we gotten more boundaries?

>Foakes (wk)

Problem is the ECB (and white "people" in general) can never admit a mistake until the media backlash is so strong they have no other choice. Sachin and Lara just weren't cut out to be leaders and Ganguly turned out to be a great one (esp with John Wright). Root would make a good VC, not sure who makes a good test captain atm. Buttler? Stokes? Broad as a stop gap?

Business idea: /cric/ in the Yea Forumserb owl

what would we do

Strong and stable leadership.

Stokes lacks the concentration and intelligence I think. He has passion and the personality.. but it's no secret he has the attention span of a goldfish.

Buttler possibly.. I think he's a bit meek as well, middle class, a bit too much like Root. We don't really have any captain material 2bh. Problem is half our team are not even core players to the point you can make them captain. That's probably the only reason Root is captain - Buttler is droppable. Broad was dropped recently.

Excalibur!

Buttler is trash
Too ridiculous to make Broad or Stokes the captain given their excessive bowling workloads
Honestly looking at your peem Root is the best option, maybe Buttler second

love my /cric/ family

feels good to have the ashes wrapped up

Union and league are completely different braindead freahcunt
And it’s eastern Australia where it’s popular, not west

for me? it'll be england coming back from a 2-0 deficit to win the ashes 3-2, with the fifth series win coming on a massive technicality that puts the cricket world cup win to shame

What you think he's a genuine world class dedicated spinner?

Those stats came from cleaning up Sri Lankan shitters on dust bowls
Him, Leach and someone else were taking wickets for fun

Well obviously, like I care if he picks up wickets against some Bangladeshy niggers.

kek he was dropped for the first part of the india series but came back and dominated their batting (the so-called "best" players of spin)

and the difference was he was consistent in his line and length, something he didn't do vs australia which is where mentally he fails

As an AFL customer, Union seems convoluted and messy compared to League. Too many penalties where I don't know what the fuck is going on. League seems more streamlined.

No. I think he's an all-rounder. Do you even watch this sport?

Also, I didn't realise that you can only be a "world class dedicated spinner", or "genuinely shit". Thanks for enlightening me. Clearly there's absolutely no inbetween.

As a person who watches only England matches, I genuinely think most aussie batsman are really bad at the game

I've literally NEVER seen 80% of them do any good. I only recently learnt that Adam Voges averages over 60? Doesn't that guy average like 2 against us? Whenevr I saw him he seemed like he didn't belong in test cricket.. but to be fair he ain't alone.

>all-rounder

So you admit he's not good enough to be a dedicated spinner then?
Now here's the kicker: he's a shit batsman - so what's left?

would you rate Smith as the second or third best batsman ever behind Lara?

>the world of cricket is dominated by MM Ali in the last 12 months

yikes

any specific format or overall across all formats?

The large and in charge New Zealand

Not saying he's awful, just that highest wicket taker stat over the past year is disingenuous
He had easy pickings in Sri Lanka, and he's also slowly taken over from Rashid as the frontline spinner so he's bowled 3x more overs than any other English player
I think he had just one good game against India

>muh stats

What are you an Indian?

I've never seen a game where Moeen Ali looked good. Maybe one home test

ah yes the famous 10 test match series England plays vs Sri Lanka

His series against us in Australia was unironically one of the worst all round performances in the history of test cricket. Hopefully they stick with him based on those away Sri Lanka and West Indies wickets because he could go a long way to winning us the Ashes all by himself.

>that lyon average

kek is that shitter even trying

been dominated by a spin part timer whilst being a useless no. 11

*be based*

kek you FUCKING idiot look at the matches he's played compared to everyone else
If you divide wickets/matches it actually becomes:
Shah 5.4
Lyon 5.11
Bumrah 5
Cummins 5
Ali 4.8
Anderson 3.18
you have been utterly ANNIHILATED by my FACTS and LOGIC
you should consider SUICIDE
I look forward to your response, which I will NOT be reading

dunno why they keep selecting that guy 2bh, his career stats tell the story - thoroughly mediocre

based sebbo

Three, and he took 8, 6 and 4. He only played two Indian tests kek
Then he played in the West Indies tour, was shit then picked up a lucky 7 wicket haul in the third test
England have just played more tests than the other nations and against shit sides.

Too old.... can you show me some more recent stats?

>so BTFO he doesn't even reply
delicious

my dear bro

you called la?

removing that one specific match from memory would literally make lyon unmemorable - that's his issue, has the odd good match where aussies jerk off over him but he's really bad and expensive the rest of the time

sad to say 2bh

There's one man who'd still remember him.

kek

reckon there's some big value on these odds

he's been the best spinner in the world for three years

Nice sport, retards

actually moeen ali has been the best spinner in the world for the last year

yikes the undisputed proof of this got posted in this thread, embarrassing..

>the virgin off-spinner

this is the post

Yeah man when I was watching it in the cinema for the 3rd time it really hit home how out of place that whole scene looked.

just looked up the stats lads

Ashwin takes Lyon for a ride last 3 years and he didn't even bowl anywhere near as much. Imaigne getting your arse handed to you by Ashwin.

ashwin is a stadpadder who was comprehensively outbowled last time australia toured india

first class and test, actual proper cricket mate

Imagine being a poo lmao

Why do Englel keep on picking a old man who gets injured every series?
Is it so they can use it as a shield to say why they lost?
Anderson is past his prime, just put him down already so we dont have to hear you English whine about how you possibly could have won if he wasnt injured

sound like you're projecting your internalised fears m8

if you discount the times they lucked out playing well, this particular player is actually not very good

if you discount the times this australian player was terrible, he's actually one of the top players in the world

No, i just genuinely want to see England be competitive and sticking with Anderson isnt the way to go
Surely Archer or someone else can fill his shoes right?
Pace bowling is tough on the body and is why you dont see many pace bowlers as old as Anderson

Anderson hasn't had consistent injury worries like Steyn did, literally just a coincidence m8 although wishful thinking on your part. He's not done quite yet.

Thanks mate

I'm gunna take hoc's mother on a DATE
Then tell her that she's paying and I'm eating five STEAKS

Get a naveya and sloane ring mate. Much more tasteful

everybody is genuinely good in form. POOPEEN POOLI knows he's shit. a complete bunny with the bat and so he says he's a bowler now so don't be mean. England have an unofficial quota system, so they pick him every time because if they drop him after all his time crying to the media about diversity and British Asian representation, they'll look like retards.

I'm marathoning an episode of Orange is the New Black and it occurs to me that affirmative action and imprisonment without trial/representation/evidence of guilt are both wrong and bad but also from opposite sides of the American political spectrum. It's quite basic really, but look at the time.

i salute you sir

got one lined up for the missus mate?

Is that Sam Hyde's mulatto cousin or literally just Sam Hyde in brown face?

Depends what you want. Just search them. Can get get free if you fly in cheap.

Yeah mate

half Jew half Haitian

how have you been on Yea Forums and never seen Eric Andre

i'm a big fan of solitaires honestly, though they look best if your girl has thin or even bony fingers
my fat ex had her heart set on an emerald cut, with the diamond mounted sideways
her hands were the same size as mine

never set foot on Yea Forums mate
only the elite 4channel for me

Whatever happened to Daniel

of course the fat cunt is an expert on rings

I've seen him many times and always assumed it was literally Sam Hyde in brown face, but this time it occurred to me that the makeup was a little too good.

Not gonna lie, I don't have any idea about rings. But my gf keeps tagging me in posts about engagement rings.

/hoc/ absolutely seething right now lads

The only thing on fatguts fingers is Mr foofoos rectum

he's on the ropes

planning on locking her in then mate? good for you

I wouldn't mind marrying her, but it's too soon desu. Only been with her 6 months.

best batsmen over the past two years
>1. SPUD Smith - 72.59
>2. Bane - 68.2
>3. Pissrat Pooli - 66.57
>4. Henry Nicholls - 64.5
>5. Tom Latham - 56.5
smoth on top, virat below kane, 3 kiwis and no root. yeah, I'm thinking based.

surprised at Nicholls and Latham Tbh

the ex and i were talking seriously about getting engaged, so looking at jewelry happened. learning about that shit is simple. know your four "C"s.
mum used to sell jewelry as well so she told me a lot about the other considerations

wew yeah very soon
suppose it depends on the relationship though. my sister got engaged after only a year and had been with her ex boyfriend for three years without discussing it

Pixies touring Australia lads playing Surfer Rosa in full

haha yeah way too soon
there's nothing wrong with bantering with each other though, since it can keep sexual tension amped up a bit, just don't let it get too serious yet. that was my mistake.

yeah they were really good, last summer especially. seems like Nicholls has finally got a consistent technique, so I'm excited to see him in the SL series next week, underrated player I think.

props to Latham for that average as an opener

6 months is not too soon why would you even think that?

sorry mate, missed you there

KEK

I swear i always hear about Anderson getting injured though
It could possibly start happening a lot now though
There is one bowler at 40 or over and he is a spinner
As for that the last time a pace bowler who played to 40 or more was Bevan Congdon at a medium pace in 1978
Pace doesnt suit age and if he starts getting injured the longer it will take him to recover
I wouldn't be betting on him a whole lot, he could be on his last legs.
I just hope you guys find a good replacement before he retires

Just did a Vitality Blast lads

I'm here now lads

eh it depends legitimately on how long you've been together in what way.

like for me, we'd been close friends for four years when we started dating (I guess I'd friendzoned her for a long time; really didn't even realize she was interested). So she was "ready". Also we'd just turned 30 so yeah... she was in panic mode. Anyway yeah with her, informal engagement (like agreeing that we'll get married within the next 2 years) would probably have been fine at six months, but a formal engagement accompanied with the full wedding plans being started at six months probably would've been too soon.

I didn't realise Wade is only 31. He could be in the team for quite a few years from now on.

why? he's a good test batsman and with BJ Watling getting on a bit, we might chuck him down the order and have him keep soon.

Rate my stolen and embellished pasta:

Memes aside, what are the biggest issues with ice hockey?
In my opinion the defending part is the worst: apart from wasting possession in ridiculous ways (e.g. weak-ass passes that end among the boards), so many times it looks like they just lose interest (?) in the puck and don't go for it like hurlers or field hockey players would do, just skate along behind the opponent and watch what happens. And when they go for it, it is to make fouls. LMAO
Shooting at goal also is awful.

>Joe Root says England must avoid making “shotgun” decisions after their crushing defeat by Australia in the first Test and the captain is unrepentant over the Jimmy Anderson selection gamble that blew up in his face on the opening morning.
>Root appeared to endorse Moeen holding on to his spot. “You’ve got to remember how threatening he can be. I’m sure he’ll dust himself down and make sure he’s in a good head space going into Lord’s,” he said, only to backtrack when pressed further.

Jimmy Anderson needs to be taken out the back and put down.

How they give him another go, he deserves it after how well he played over the last 12 months.

I don't either
