Pooran said to have retired from international cricket... Franchise cricket ftw for these fellas... Waste ah time

[pugboy]

only 29yrs old
makes sense
why bother having your life earnings schedule being interrupted every year by a bunch of unprofessional cwi bureaucrats

he will likely look to immerse himself in mgmt over there like bravo and narine

[trinigamer]

Double whitewash as expected.


In other news, Da Silva not selected for series against Australia. Think that may be it for him.

Lovely day 1 of the test finals...

TEST MATCH CRICKET AT ITS BEST

SOUTH AFRICA FIGHTING BACK AGAINST AUSTRALIA

AUSTRALIA - 212 AND 73/7 / SOUTH AFRICA 138

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Australia could win this again!

[bluefete]

South Africa on the brink - of victory - but anything could happen on the 4th day.

They need 69 runs with 8 wickets remaining. Aussies can spoil it.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Hopefully the proteas don't choke this time

[shake d livin wake d dead]

South Africa finally cross the line in a big event

[bluefete]

[Dizzy28]

Glad for South Africa.
The question of who can match up with Starc, Cummins and Hazelwood has been answered.

Bumrah stands alone for India and NZ without Boult and Souther can't come close.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

India vs England in a few days would be good cricket! Let's see how India perform without Sharma and the king

[shake d livin wake d dead]

India on top on day 2 in England

[Dizzy28]

England looking good for a win in the 1st test against India
233-2 chasing 371 and still with a session and a half of the day remaining.

[trinigamer]

England wins by 5 wickets.

That was a well played match by both teams, except maybe India's lower order.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

India's lower order
Poor fielding
Over reliance on bumrah cost them this match.

The bench has more profit in the bowling line up as opposed to what was chosen

Jaiswal dropped seven catches
He alone was a game changer

And that lower order pretty poor.in both innings they went from like 4 something for six to 4something all out. Quite surprised Nitish Reddy wasn't picked for that first test

[bluefete]

WI v Australia.

Like the WI fielders put Vaseline in their hands before going out to field.

Poor Shamar Joseph should have had 5 wickets by now but he is 3/20 after 10 overs. 2 dropped catches off him alone.

Several more went down off the other bowlers as well.

Australia 112/4 at the moment.

[bluefete]

TV umpire just made one big thief against the WI for a caught behind - Travis Head. Everyone saw the ball go into the wicketkeeper's gloves except the tv umpire - Shamar Joseph again.

Shamar bowling like a beast.

[DMan7]

WI playing an Australia C team when it comes to their batting and lo and behold they bowled them out for 180. Australia has their top team when it comes to the bowling though, Cummins, Starc, Hazlewood and Lyon. Lets see what WI batsmen response gonna be.

They only missing Smith and Marnus from the side that played the WTC final.
That's basically what their first team would look like now that David Warner is retired.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Miracle is west indies makes a lead. I wonder how they managed to get King to play test cricket
