It's meant to enrich the spectators enjoyment ie more overs in a day but if the home team loses its captain and best player I don't see the logic.tungsten tossers wrote: ↑Tue Feb 05, 2019 10:48 amIt is a bit of a strange rule in the current climate where tests last 3 to 4 days.. don't suppose holder will be too upset as the series is done and dusted but if it had been 1-1 it would have meant a lot to WI..

There is talk of Bairstow dropping down the order a bit.Randall wrote: ↑Sat Feb 09, 2019 9:47 amNo faith in bairstow at 4.tungsten tossers wrote: ↑Sat Feb 09, 2019 9:46 amCould be at least three wickets down before lunch then...

Whether that means Root at 4, Bairstow 5 and Butler 6 with Stokes 7 I don't know but either way, someone in that top 3 has got to score some runs and hang in there till the second session, otherwise we will be panicking and hitting out as per usual

Re: cricket thread
England's opening batting is woeful, and very lucky not to be four down by now

Re: cricket thread
Lower order and bowlers have been saving England for a few years now but look at the bowling for a minute. Broad and Anderson are close to the end and there's no obvious replacements.
England's game right now depends on Root and three all rounders

Windies way behind in the game, best player banned and a bowler down.
Even England can't lose this.
