Bill 13,684 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I love the way sport has a habit of biting your arse if you get too cocky. England came on to the field today in a blizzard of media pronouncements about the size of their first innings lead. Where did that go? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rousseau 9,188 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 I don't know enough about the county game to suggest any options. However, I do think Roy has to go, or be dropped down the order, a lot; every time I watch, he's swinging at everything. What's happening with Root? Bairstow, Buttler and Stokes have been awful too -- although I still think Stokes can contribute, as he did get that century. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 5,952 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 This morning I was thinking a good display would put a big smile on the face of Bob Willis but after this display we might never see Bob smile again . By the way I thought Bob a first class bowler and fine competitor . 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 5,009 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Old geezers like me and compo are accustomed to England batting collapses. I can’t think of any County cricketers likely to make an improvement. Stokes, Bairstow and Buttler are all-rounders as opposed to tradesmen batsmen. Just a thought.q 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
