šŸ:engerland: England (and Wales) Cricket 2022

50 up for Bairstow, 149-5.

Stokes 25, dropped on 18 and just now by Bumrah, next ball he’s caught by Bumrah with a harder chance.

149-6, trail by 267, follow on looming…

Bairstow given out LBW, he reviews instantly, doesn’t even talk to Billings…and he got a thin nick on it.

Reprieved. Aleem Dar needs to go to Specsavers.

198-6, trail by 218

Next ball 50 partnership is up, 41 of those runs belong to Bairstow

200-6, trail by 216

Bairstow 91* Billings 7*

Bairstow 3rd consecutive hundred this summer. From a 4, should have been 2 but Jadeja slipped at the rope and let the ball through…

Bairstow 100*
Billings 20*

Eng 227-6

Bumrah gone, smacks a huge 6 and then tries the same shot again, short this time, straight into Creepy’s hands.

Lees 50 up in short order (44 balls).

So I’m not the only one watching it then :slight_smile:

100 up, 19.5 overs

England 100-0, 278 runs required…

Bumrah (the ever living) back into the attack and Creepy shoulders arms to a ball that nips back and takes his bails off.

Crawley 46 b Bumrah
England 107-1 need 271 more runs

Next over is a maiden and then that’s tea…

Shambolic
