The Cricket Thread (part 6) - from July 2023 (Bartholemew Frinton-Smythe, Humphrey Wigbert-Porter, and Quinten Breckenridge)

Broad didn’t complain when he was the bowler credited with the wicket last year when they did it to the kiwis.

Petulant hypocrite.

I hope Broad and Anderson make that trip. I want to add another 5-0 drubbing onto their CVs.

Dunkirk spirit

Stokes wasn’t walking out of his crease.

Has he said something?

Are we honestly sticking with the line that if Bairstow dismissed Head like that we’d say fair play?

Apologies for my dodgy censoring

Yep. I’d have no problem with it. Don’t leave your crease until the ball is dead. Pretty simple stuff.

Commentary team claim he said he wasn’t going to have a drink with the Aussies anytime soon

It’s a stumping, what isn’t fair about it? Additionally, it is fully explained in the rules of the game, much the same as Starc’s catch was a catch but not out according to the laws of the game. Applies equally. We weren’t happy about Starc and have to suck it up, they aren’t happy about Bairstow and they need to suck it up.

We would going off our heads. Especially if we lost a home Ashes test in the same game.

Smith will be practising his catches all night in the hotel room.

Remember this “catch”.

Don’t talk to me about spirit of the game you English wankers.
