šŸ :engerland: England Cricket 2021

I’m glad he’s made a 2nd career for himself.
I saw him at Glasto, entertainingly self deprecating about the whole Idol & Simon Cowell thing

Conway 50 up

83-1

Good batting pitch this…

As anyone who watches test cricket knows. Day 2 is the time to bat at Edgbaston.

Anyone apart from Root obviously.

Conway gone for 80, hits the ball straight to Crawley in the deep

137-2

50 up for Will Young from 132 balls

148-2

Taylor given out LBW, he’s reviewing though…missing the wickets by a mile, overturned.

New Zealand all out for 388, a lead of 85. For a fair bit of time today it looked like being a whole lot worse than that. Shows the value of hanging in there and not buckling.

Burns fell 2nd ball.

Sibley gone, static feet, edges to the slips, 17-2

Tea 18-2, trail by what might as well be a fuckton.

Crawley gone for 17 LBW, he wasted a review reviewing ir as well…

30-3, 55 behind…

Pope LBW, 58-4, trail by 27

He reviewed and it was upheld on Umpires Call just hitting the bails…of course they’ve changed the Umpires Call to include the height of the bails now, previously that would probably have been not out…

I shall say, though, that I have always thought they should include the height of the bails…

Lawrence gone for 0…

58-5, I don’t think New Zealand are going to have to bat again…this really is poor.

Where’s the Denmark / Finland thread…I’m off to watch the Footie.

Bracey gone for 8, played on to his own stumps.

71-6

Look on the bright side. Bracey has just increased his Test batting average by a factor of infinity.

And, after all the hard work in the field, the top and middle order (Root aside) decide that hanging in there is seriously overrated. Let’s go buckle!
