Known as a Grumpy Sod by some!
Even as an Englishmam I've no idea how we have 5 players in the team... Root & Brook maybe - the rest, I'm not so sure!

You're busy tonight keeping across this and the England/Governor's game! Hope you have a strong coffee in place!

Really pleased to see CricketAustralia streaming this game through their website and having it accessible in the UK.

And looks like a decent number of cameras etc as well

I almost feel like Smiths only chance to come back in will be an injury to Pope or Bethell.

England don't drop players (other than Anderson). Pope will stay lower order and keep until Bethell or Root are out and he goes back up the order.

Surely you've missed the chance to change the lyrics

Ever since he was a young boy,
He bowled a red ball
From Darwin down to Melbourne
He must have played them all.
But we ain't seen nothing like him
In any test arena
That mad moustached bowler
Sure bowls a mean pink ball

In typical England fashion.
Bethell to open (he basically is) and bring Robinson in?

I'm glad I'm working the late shift.
Another 1 hr on shift then drive home so I'll be following a bit longer.

I mean - Crazy batting and erm, a straight ball on the stumps that just nipped back, but shouldn't have beaten him
December 5, 2024 at 10:35 PM
He did try a straight bat. Down the wrong line, but it was straight 😂🤦
December 5, 2024 at 10:34 PM
Erm.... That silence from Lord Gower says a lot....
December 5, 2024 at 10:32 PM
Be honest, I lost confidence with them a while back... @wgrumblepants.bsky.social has a similar outlook I feel.

We are, unfortunately, assuming it's anything

Every Opposition bowling coach and opening bowler.... Alright they're convinced they'll get him out, but they're convince of it....
December 5, 2024 at 10:29 PM
It's fair to say he believes he's seen better....
December 5, 2024 at 10:26 PM
Stokes and McCullum? At least in the press they are.
December 5, 2024 at 10:25 PM
Could see New Zealand making in roads into the English order again here. Crawley looks like he wants to put every ball out of the ground, Bethell is too new for this pressure.
December 5, 2024 at 10:20 PM
Win toss and hat you say.... I have a feeling Mr Latham didn't want to listen today 😂
December 5, 2024 at 10:14 PM
He pulled out before playing the first ball between his legs 👀

I'm finding alot of those I follow due to my medical work are still _there_ and slow to love across, so I'm back there regularly. Guess like all these things they come in waves. Used to be Facebook, then Twitter, now here.

Flood lights can't, unfortunately, always be used due to certain grounds having reported licencing conditions with how many days flood lights can be on, especially in housing/built up areas.

Ah the joys of being on Latea Thursday and Friday & then nights Saturday 😂 the perfect excuse to sleep during the day
December 3, 2024 at 11:57 PM
Yeah. Get back from work sometimes (Ambulance Crew) and just sit there for a bit contemplating the day and how it's gone before going into the house.
December 3, 2024 at 1:23 PM
Well judged leaves any day! Proper cricket that
December 2, 2024 at 5:16 PM
I'd love to see that, I'm sure that there is a club level ground somewhere with a ground like that. Maybe everyone's favourite ground guru @wgrumblepants.bsky.social knows

Which way would you have the Oval?
Longest boundary straight or square?

Or even better would you play with the pitch at 45 degrees to the oval? 😂
