India’s 100 up, 111-1 after 7 overs, absolute carnage. Overton’s first over went for 25, Abishek’s 50 up in 17 balls, now on 78 off 26. Rishi Sunak sitting there lapping it up with a shit eating grin on his face. I didn’t realise our parliament is in recess, skiving little cunt.
72-0 offf 8.4 overs when I switched on. Salt then run out, sent back going for improbable 3rd and 3 balls later Duckett caught off mistimed pull and Brook gloves 2nd ball down legside for a duck.
England made a decent enough start in today’s second ODI, but it looks like the all too familiar middle order collapse is starting. Duckett made 65, Root 69, Buttler and Brook made it into the 30s then got out, Overton coming in 5th wicket down is a joke, at best he’s a county standard journeyman trundler and a genuine tail ender with the bat. He made his usual 6 then aimed a cross batted heave at Jadeja which went straight up in the air. Yet England keep picking him, it has to be one of lifes mystery’s why. England 272-6 with three overs to go in their innings.
