Played even less than Simon Jones.

He made his Hants debut in the opening 4 day game. We batted first and he got hit on the elbow coming in at no. 11 and we never saw him again for the rest of the season. His old man did more, commentating on Radio Solent.

After the excitement of yesterday were back to Eng v Ind, the deciding ODI…

24th over and England are 128-4, Bairstow and Root out for ducks, Buttler and Ali currently in the middle…

No real fireworks at Durham where England are Playing South Africa in the first ODI.

42 overs gone and SA are 265-2, steady but not spectacular.

This’ll please @Lets-B-Drinking

WICKET

Roy c Miller b Maharaj 43 (Eng 102-1)

Jason Roy gets the boundary he was so desperately seeking … but gets out next ball!

Having reverse swept to the ropes the ball before, Roy tries to loft Maharaj over his head but instead picks out David Miller - who earlier dropped Bairstow - and he takes a fine, sprawling catch out at long-off.

It wasn’t easy going for Roy but that’s a solid opening partnership for England after a brutal afternoon in the field.

That was boring turgid shite.

Raining in Manchester. Start delayed.

Well.
Clearly none of us watched that…

Obvs not…

I did but was inundated with a tsumani of unrequested feedback from Mrs db about fuck knows what and thus rendered into a state of torpor.

England played their first T20i against South Africa yesterday, batted first and won at a canter

England FlagEngland 234/6

South Africa FlagSouth Africa (20 ov, T:235) 193/8

England won by 41 runs

Getting our arse handed to us here

Totally bogged down
Req RR is disappearing out of sight and we are running out of wickets

A brave effort but all out just 91 runs short. :lou_facepalm_2:

Just as well Chris Jordan is such a ā€œworld class death bowlerā€ otherwise he wouldn’t get in the side. He certainly killed us today with his selection of pies.

Then of course, he probably thought The Clown would get him out of jail by impersonating a batsman. Some fucking chance. And what the fuck is Malan doing in a T20 team?

Australia don’t have postage stamp grounds like Lords, Bristol and Cardiff, so wtf are these idiots going to do in the World Cup?

I don’t listen to him and I’m certainly not reading him either.

I think the headline is enough :rofl:

1st test between England and South Africa today.

SA choose to field

Creepy and Alex Lees got out to Rabada early doors.

Root just out LBW to a ball that jagged back, very close, he reviewed and it was just hitting the stumps, he was given out on the field.

42-3
