Cricket Season Thread

Crawley and Duckett belting it everywhere but the Indian attack of Siraj and Deep look weak with no Bumrah
Cant understand England bowl this morning with a 65 over ball which was swinging and seaming a mile yet Indian bowlers with a new ball getting very little movement ?
Crawley and Duckett 0-51 off 7 overs
These 2 guys are a little scary re the Ashes !
 
Just watched the final hour of day 5 England vs India
England needed just 35 runs
India needed 4 wickets
First 2 balls of day went for 4 Only 27 needed
Then 4 wickets India win by 6 runs
England were at one point 3-301 chasing 374
All out 367 that's 7-66
Series tied 2-2

The pommy press will have apoplexy
 
Bit of a new era for India
Rohit Sharma ,Viral Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin retired
Bumrah out injured
Its clear for the big 3 Australia ,England and India that test cricket is huge
So the ICC need to share the riches so Test Cricket doesn't become just a
3 horse race .Promote the red ball game in the struggling countries
 
Following England 2-2 drawn series with India .The total focus of the Poms now is the Ashes .Nothing matters more to them than regaining the Ashes
They have a few batsmen in serious form
Crawley ,Duckett , Root , Brook now what do we have ?
We thrashed the Windies 3-0 but looking at our batting in most recent test vs more serious opposition ie South Africa in June
That test Kwajaja ave 3.0 Labuschagne ave 19.5 Green ave 2.0 Smith ave 39.5
Head ave 10.0 Webster 40.5 Carey ave 33.0 Starc 59.0 Cummins 4.0
Lyon 1.0 Hazelwood 17.0
Only Smith ,Webster ,Starc and Carey got satisfactory averages
Big concern is our top 3
Needs serious attention before Nov
Cant imagine anything worse than the Poms regaining the Ashes in Australia

They’re a big chance I think. We need two openers and a number 3 probably. Not sure Green is up to batting 3 unless we’re 1 for 200.
