wish I'd posted my theroux analysis in this thread for more (You)s

what do you reckon sounds like Strawberry Jam

masterpiece of rhythm I recjon

nigeria rising

it was a super over

haha yeah congratulations australia but why is the coward joe root still captain? am I to understand the fact that he was not immediately removed before the post-match interviews even started, that the management are happy with his captaincy? they think he is doing a decent job and deserves to carry on?

literally every psychedelia release ever . feels has unique personality and atmosphere

love getting ubers because the drivers are almost always cricket tragics I can have a good brainstorm with
Australians are far too casual I reckon

loved it how the coward joe root tried to claim that it was Smith alone who won the ashes when England were thoroughly roped before Lyon and Paine fucked >our shit up in the test without Smith

Speaking at a media conference, the 28-year-old revealed according to quotes on Hindustan Times, “I don’t know the answer to that, to be honest with you. From my experience, I just want to be out there batting.” He added, “I don’t actually like watching cricket that much and I prefer to be out there batting and getting the job done. I think that’s part of it.”

I hate bairstow because he is very talented but bar one and a half good years he bats so so below his ability. average of 35 is absolute garbage for a player of his talent especially when he barely even bats above number 5
his tantrums about the gloves have been incredibly tiresome as well

as for buttler I was the one constantly decrying ed smith for picking a meme slogger in the runup to the india series last year based entirely on IPL performances. sure he did well in that series and made me look a bit foolish but I think I have been proved right in the long run. I just can't get as angry about buttler because he isn't a prick

congratulations Australia for retaining the Ashes. They were far better throughout the series. Disappointed with England, but at least we saw some good matches in contrast to the plethora of innings victories we've seen in the last few ashes series. hopefully there'll be a good match at the oval with those sweet, sweet test championship points on offer

lmao not quite mate

ok, so we have concluded that australia is part of england
nice one ausfags
at least americans have some mettle and think independtly and dont accept the royal family. you guys are literally eternally cucked

There's merit in this, Brisbane music v British music. Reminder that The Saints literally invented the punk genre.

average of 35 really isnt that bad mate. not in a shit side.you have to realise england are fucking shit. hes way better than anyone who could try replace him

this article makes some fantastic points on Buttler, especially the idea that they were forcing guys like Pope into the top order when they really were more suited to replace Buttler

How many chances are Afghanistan going to give up

jos buttler is absolute trash

ok throw in Violent Soho and I reckon they're square

how about Sticky Fingers?

it feels like the post-mortem of this series is similar to the '07, '11 and '15 world cups, where England had just been selecting good test players and hoping they're good in odis, except now they have the opposite problem.

It's frustrating because they seemed to have briefly learned the lesson that the two formats need to essentially be treated independently, and that gave them success in the odis, but then they forgot that lesson and made Jason Roy open the batting in the Ashes

Is Chittagong related to Wollongong?

besides, londoners actually get a semi at the thought of being subjugated by a manlet paki sultan. frankly it is a win/win for everyone

>illumanity
lmao

heh, BBC just made a joke on their front page that england have announced an unchanged squad for the 5th test

Yeah I've thought that before as well, they pretty much made the same mistake but in reverse. I find the idea of Eoin Morgan as a one day specialist who can't play t20s or tests to save his life weird
It seems so ridiculous that they have to be so singular minded about the season and dedicate absolutely everything to a white ball or red ball format, I guess maybe the season is too short in England to accomodate both. iirc the scheduling has meant there's been no first class county cricked going on during the ashes so they can't even replace current players as they don't know what kind of form they're in
I reckon they're just not harsh enough to the players as well, Buttler and Bairstow should be dropped and performers in county cricket brought in

i suppose youre right in a way

Have England announced their team for the Oval yet? Some user said it was due today.

its actually a real thing lad. democracy is a myth

>mayor of London is voted by people in London, not England as a whole
woah mind blowing concept

Bit dire that a comic book movie won at Venice lads.

yeah saw that it was unchanged but that was obviously an out of season april fools so I'm waiting for the real announcement

ohnonono
at least >we had the guts to drop Finch for our fourth test against India

but its england's capital city you fucking retard. why would support london becoming more insular and seperate than it already is

That's just the squad though right? They wont announce the team until sometime near the toss right?

It's its own city idiot, you've already got a PM elected by the nation, why should the mayor of the city be decided by some randoms from Yorkshire?

boris is a brainlet too

Their squad doesn't have any other batting options, Curran is the only other non injured and non cooked (referring to Ali) option

its its own city but its not its country. why shouldnt the mayor of her capital be decided by england as a whole? youre playing a very dangerous and undemocratic game

Um sweaty, the people don't directly elect the prime minister

oh yeah I suppose you're right
but it's only 13 players, the only change they can make now is to bring in sam curran or woakes a match after dropping him
it signals they are happy with how things have gone

>England squad for fifth Test: Joe Root (capt), Jofra Archer, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Stuart Broad, Rory Burns, Jos Buttler (wk), Sam Curran, Joe Denly, Jack Leach, Craig Overton, Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, Chris Woakes.

What the fuck is the point of a mayor elected by the country and a PM elected by the country
Do you realise what a mayor is supposed to do? It's like planning and infrastructure specific to the city
Do you think the mayor of Manchester should be decided by the nation

Oh dear..... well isn't Curran meant to be good? I think Vaughan was saying he should have been picked from the beginning, if Roy were dropped and Curran were in that'd probably be good enough to give aus a run.

not massively important but it still matters and represents english philosophy and identity. given that hes the figurehead of our beautiful capity city

we are bros with burgers now. chinks hating on us hard and will be forced to make a tough decision in the future, back to the grorious nation (lul) or stay here.
Assimilation is working lad
war looms
comfy times

Curran is a bowler mate
at a stretch Ed Smith would call him an all rounder but he's Pat Cummins tier with the bat

Englels other big problem is that they've put Archer on the pussy pedestal and now cant drop him til hes properly injured. So the only bowling hange could be overton

Apologise right now

no because manchester isnt our capital . what youre basically asking of me is just to comletely disregard london and forget its even my capital city

Oh yes, and an educated one at that. What I mean is the illumanity wanted Boris as mayor of London but don't want brexit? Boris has been a leaver since at least '04, when he was on the spectator.
If leaving is so untenable for the illumanity I'm sure they should've not supported any leavers ever, but that's not what happened.
If all this behind the curtains wizard of oz ruling stuff is totally true, I'd like to understand their position with some consistency.

I think the philosophy is, if our batsmen aren't any good, just make sure all the bowlers can bat to rectify it
obviously this falls apart because you just end up with a team packed full of bits-and-pieces cricketers and play-your-natural-game merchants

Ok so with Curran ruled out for actual batting, and no other contenders, I think I can now agree that the squad selection for the 5th test at the Oval is as grim as the English posters are making it out to be.

based banksy

tbf I think they're unsure who takes the third or fourth seamer position
They've dropped Woakes even though I don't think he was that bad and went with Overton, Vaughn probably wanted Curran in that position

I know it never works, we've tried it a few times in ODIs I believe, and it almost always results in our top order batsmen throwing their wickets away because "there's plenty of batsmen to come, it doesn't matter if I get out" and then because there's so many wickets falling an no one gets settled the run rate is even slower than if they were just playing conservatively.

don't need any batsmen lad

woakes was sidelined because he wasn't as exciting as the savage house nigger Jofra Archer
root barely bowled woakes, I assumed it was because he was maybe carrying a slight injury (in which case don't pick him for 3 tests retard) but I think it literally just is because root doesnt trust him despite him being elite in home conditions for years(and next to useless away)

I would support this simply for the statpadding results.

I condemn the booing of steve smith at this point, it's gone on long enough and just looks like pathetic sour grapes. plus it is not even working.
the booing of david warner however I fully support because he is not making any runs and it is funny

>first innings
>root 350

So there's only going to be one innings then? One big long slow boring 5 day innings? (1403)

I wondered if he was injured too but you would have thought they would say it by now, don't see much point to lie about it although it is a bad look when so many of your bowlers have gotten injured (Anderson, Wood, Stone)
He looked like shit when they showed him in the box in the last test, maybe it's a minor injury
>but I think it literally just is because root doesnt trust him
why
I actually think it's not a bad option for them to at least try a different bowling unit when they were getting btfo with Woakes in, and he's been the weakest bowler

He be worth keeping in the side as a specialist batsman the way some of your boys have gone.

Harris 5(20) lbw
Warner 5(1) bowled
Labuschagne 50*(50) not out
Smith 1200* (error) not out

350* (633)
Aus skittled for spare change and forced to follow on
I have divined it

thinking back to the time we batted stuart broad at 7 against australia in 2009 because he was a decent meme bat at the time

but woakes is definitely a better bat than broad even pre nose break and subsequent mental melt

Afghanistan got their maiden test victory,a nation born in test match cricket today and surely will become a competitive side in time of a decade, Congratulations to the team for their effort as they just thrashed Bangladesh apart with a 224 run victory.Wicket n.o 9 could be the complain Bangladeshi fans would be making but at the end the better team won and a lesson taught to Bangladesh for their arrogance,poor selection and going without a front line Pacer seemed inappropriate, Bangladesh to worry but Afghanistan could be proud to beat a test playing nation nearly in their start to Test match cricket

it was formed on the premise that t20 cricket was 'too complicated' for casual fans

It's properly grim. For the last 2-3 years it's been obvious that we lack batsman who can build a proper test innings, and filling the order with one day players doesn't work. If you don't rethink the strategy after losing the ashes at home, when do you?
The time was after the India series where England won but the problems were clear.

deano thought england would win the ashes because of stokes freak innings. old trafford and oval england never had any chance of winning . maybe edgbaston or the rose bowl would been a different story

recommend every lad reads this

It's very shit and hopefully whomever is backing it will lose all of their monies and abandon it before the first season completes.

think we already lost at edgbaston this series m8

Business idea: ashes test at Malahide

I love that even in a summer where we (sort of) won the world cup, I will end up as depressed as ever regarding the sport in this country. Glorious

lol I'm not convinced adding in half overs makes the game less complicated

yeah i know. just saying this current england has no chance against australia on wickets that turn or take pace. slow swingers are our only chance but yeah he got mauled at edgbaston which speaks volumes

morgan was alright at tests, not great but not shit. extremely smart lad I reckon actually. he saw the limited overs hole in English cricket and came up with the radical idea of going off and playing meme tournaments like everyone else in the world but the english did and made himself absolutely indispensable to their white ball setup rather than just being another not bad not great bat

Just found out Warnie is coaching a Hundred team lads, disregard my skepticism earlier I'm now a full fledged supporter and I'm looking forward to its inevitable success.

issue is the batting I reckon

Australian bowling is always strong in England, but the English batsmen do a decent job of standing up against it while the Australians outside edge their way to a series defeat in swinging conditions with a Dukes ball. Smith aside, it was no different this series, probably worse than most other series even 2015. Australia's bowling was better than usual, but hardly dominant as the struggles against the tail showed. for >us, it was a pretty typical tour of England and for the English bowlers it was a pretty typical home ashes. trouble is England no longer has any test quality batsmen barring le fifty and out man

mate younis khan was a bit shit
mo yousuf was way better

p sure he just got bounced out every innings lad

his position was always that he was talking about international level
if you're good enough to make it to the national test team you probably don't need much coaching, and the head coach should be more of a 'manager' role, dealing with mentality etc

>On 21 February 2019, the ECB confirmed revised playing conditions in which there would be 10 ten-ball overs with bowlers delivering 5 or 10 consecutive balls.
What the fuck I thought it was all 6 ball overs and then a 10 ball one at the end
This is a fucking awful idea

Yeah and since he coached a bunch of literal whos to a victory or near victory (can't remember) in the first IPL WHILE PLAYING - I'd say he was right.

Trying to not pick all the obvious choices for batting, as their is a lot of talent in batting
Same with Pace Bowling depth, which is why i picked Vernon in it because i don't see many people rate him but i honestly think he is a great bowler

my problem with cricket has always been that there aren't enough formats and the schedule isn't congested enough

and he only took that stance because buchanan made him run laps at training once

waqar>wasim

he's good but does not fit in with the greats, wasn't even the best bowler in his team

Wait, who is playing?

what about if you alternate bowlers every 7 balls (14 overs total) but change ends every 8 balls (12 end swappies total) except for the last over which is 9 balls and the last end swappy which is 12 balls - which brings the total up to 100 balls.

I think that would really simplify the format for younger players.

Your test cricket is good it's just that Australia have Smith

Why wasn't Smith that great in the World Cup?

waht you meant to say is we are rubbish but usually good enough to roll teams over at home just about

If they've never played a test match they're not worth talking about simple as

We've literally focused on one at the expense of the other. Test bowling usually relies on Broad and Jimmy who don't play ODI and are unaffected.

I think it's the result of a self-fulfilling prophecy - decades of dumbcunts saying the death of test cricket is just around the corner (despite evidence to the contrary) has led to a mentality among cricket board members that they may as well treat it second rate.

Tauranga is NOT bigger and you've all been meemed to death by that one dumbfuck on here. All the bars shut at 1am and the only place open after then is a pseudo knock-shop called Bobbies ($40 blowies from the dancers though, so it's not all bad).

Hamilton is a shithole, but it's a shithole that's utter fucking kino for test match cricket. Some of the best test cricket I've ever seen has been there. Me and the flatties would skive off law school, drive down on Friday morning for cricket and then paratroop the bars. There used to be a strip club called Firecats there which was surprisingly enough, in an old firehouse, but gentrification took it away from us.

all these guys filming would really put me off

local cricket is notoriously fucking trash here. based cumGOD grew up around here and moved away to get better because there was no competition

Sometimes they do sometimes not, depends on the player and those big fat slow lads can be elite but shit at sevens, some of the very best and highly rated sevens guys never play in a rugby test. They're virtually separate sports.
Erm, I think the difference between sevens and rugby is greater than the difference between odi and test cricket though.
A funny answer would be that he's not as comfortable with the pyjamas.

problem solved and fuck Tauranga

Just look H&M tier or something mate.

DESU I'll take that, Hamilton sounds like a laugh, on that basis. Slightly closer to Auckland as well, which is useful in terms of getting there. How good are Kiwi fans for staying out late after matches?

I studied in Auckland, and a lot of my best mates were airline pilots, and it so happens that both Hamilton and Tauranga were hubs for the regional airlines they were flying for. The hungover drive back to Auckland on a Sunday afternoon was nearly 90 mins faster from Hamilton than it was Tauranga.

I won't bore you with the NZ real estate market, but both places are now filled with former Aucklanders if you're worried about either town being provincial. You'll have fun in both, no doubt.

Depends on how late you want to stay out? They're both sub 250,000 population, so I wouldn't plan on a big night unless it's a Friday or Saturday.

Yeah fuck it whatever makes ya happy lad. Don't be asking here for decent advice.

Probably better than your typical Angloid desu. Even in Australia you usually want to go for a girl with some kind of continental European admixture.

I'd be fine with it being provincial - I've never been to NZ before, so it would be kind of cool to see it whatever it's like. I'm sort of into smaller places anyway, but in terms of Test Cricket, Hamilton seems like it'll be the better choice.

I know a bit about NZ politics/real estate though from chatting to NZ folks online for years, and so I know a bit about that sort of thing. Is it easy to/worth going to the north coast while I'm there? Since it's such a long flight, I may well stay a few days either side of the Test.

I'd probably just want to go to pubs to chat, most nights, but one or two nights out might be good as well.
