:engerland:🏏 England Cricket 2020

Nice moment in the commentary box when Crawley went to 222,passing Rob Key’s best test score of 221. He paid a nice tribute to Key last night, saying that he gets together with him at least once a month, to pick the brains of what he described as, “One of the finest cricketing brains around”.

Just bonkers how he is outscoring Buttler

Could be tricky deciding to declare on 500 IF Crawley is still going

Rizwan must be as good a gloveman as there is in world cricket at the moment. Very impressive, especially standing up to Abbas, who although not really quick is lively.

250 for Crawley

Crawley gone for 267,stumped down the leg side after dancing down the wicket. Great innings.

Poor shot selection, he’ll never amount to anything, typical English out shot…

Looking at the lines Asad bowls, I could have been a test bowler

When did Buttler turn into Chris Tavare?

Gone for 152
Soft chip back to the part time left arm tweaker

Collapse is inevitable. Fucking useless.

Stumps 24-3

Anderson with all 3

But honestly, we should have bowled them out by now, if this was Australia or South Africa they would have been bowling aggressively and would have taken 10 wickets, poor effort from England

You didn’t miss anything mate, weak attack, poor bowling, just bad shot selection from Pakistan…

If we were a proper team with an imaginative captain, like Australia, India or New Zealand, we’d have ditched the attritional, cricket-by-numbers bollocks approach of opening the bowling with our opening bowlers and used Sibley and Buttler. If we’d done that we’d have won the match by now. Poor, very poor.
