Savage Henry Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Australia lose the second test against India after declaring in the first and still losing by an inning. Glorious. And more confirmation that South Africa and England are streets ahead of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reynard Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Great to see Hamish Rutherford crack a century today against England. Used to watch him playing at Ayr when he was a young kid and played squash against him several times, a nice guy and a fantastic cricketer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H_B Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 England havent won the first TM in an away series for about 6 years. Ridiculous record. They will draw this match and smash NZ in the remainder. As per. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reynard Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Been quite impressed with the NZers so far. They bowled really well on a flat wicket and have taken advantage while batting. Rutherfords 171 on debut was fantastic, he really did look the part out there and played his shots. The weather seems to be making it a bit tougher for the bowlers, its a cold wind there apparently and that won't help the swing of Anderson or even the likes of Finn and Broad. No bowler likes lumbering about when its chilly. England shoudl escape with a draw OK although they really need to take a look at themselves for that batting effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per. According to the stats on TMS last night its 13 away series since they won the opening test. You'd think that by now they would have realised their scheduling is duff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think that by now they would have realised their scheduling is duff. It's almost like they set out to intentionally draw the first test of a series. Anyway, looks like a draw thanks to Cook and Compton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter Jazz Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 As a Somerset fan it's really pleasing seeing Compton get to three figures. The guy was under serious pressure and came through and now there's no reason why he can't - especially against this attack- get to a double century. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drs Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 His longest ever innings in first class cricket. The game is now a bogey barring a total England collapse, which on this pitch aint going to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reynard Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 That Dundein pitch was terrible. The Wellington track is supposedly more like a decent test wicket so hopefully the weather stays decent and we get some good cricket on it. Watching a bunch of batsmen in the comfort zone is a bit boring, even if it was funny watching Finn do a Chris tavare job for over an hour when he eventually got his fifty. And again, well done Hamsh, what a great debut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT - wtf is up with the text! They've always been in to their 'personal development' stuff. I believe it was Steve Waugh who started it all. You can only assume the four players were just pissing about. Does seem pretty harsh on face value, but at the same time, if they aren't buying into the team development aspect you can quite understand it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) What an absolute shambles Australian cricket is And that side they have is utterly stinking. Their top 6 is, Clarke aside, appalling and their bowlers are at best flat track bullies without a spinner to their name. England will crush them in the home Ashes series. Can't wait.

booitsme7 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Tea on day 1 of the 2nd test and England have only lost one wicket that being Cook after getting put in to bat by New Zealand. The score 162-1 with Compton 73 and Trott 68 and I hope both players can get to there centuries after tea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reynard Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 What the f**k was McCullum doing by making England bat first? This wicket looks like another road. Its a fucking batsmans paradise again and that fuckwit makes his team bowl first on it? His bowlers should take him t=round the back of the stand and shoot him. England should try and bat for two days and a session or so and rule out the NZ win, and then see if the pressure of batting time cracks them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_B Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Supposed to be some shit weather coming days 4 and 5 so England might need to declare earlier than usual and try to bowl them out cheaply. Great news for the Aussies today with the first day washed out. Half decent chance they can make it to Day Four.. well if they bowl first. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
