England Winter Test cricket thread

Show me where he has performed since his injury?

He's lost his zip. He's just a military medium nothing bowler now.

All our ****in bowlers are military medium these days.

Last summer we had such a good attack. Anderson, Tremlett, Bresnan, Broad and Swann. Embarrassment of riches. Now look at em. Really struggling.

They'll stick Peitersen in for a go soon....mark my words.

[captainfog]

I hope they do, he's a better bowler than Patel.

[Alex]

Patel is the largest Cricketer I have ever seen

He's like some village cricketer that has won a raffle to play for England.

I'm furious Monty isn't playing, absolutely furious. Playing in India is hard enough without these hair brained tactics.

Absolute ripper that from Swanny. On a day 1 pitch too.

[Pedenj]

Amazing piece of bowling there.

Left hander in now as well - Swann will be looking forward to that.

Monty should be playing

and.... how many runs are we going to score on this pitch?

[Alex]

400 is a good total. Think Trott/KP/Cook could get us somewhere near that.

It's turning so much already though, by the time we get into bat..... well it could be carnage.

[Alex]

Imagine this pitch on the 5th day Be like bowling on a dirt road

Chasing the game already, "behind the 8 ball" as various pricks are now wont to say. No chance we'll get a draw out of this.

This game is over

Agree with the above - Monty should be out there And it will be skittles by the time England go in to bat. Comptons got to be a great Golden Duck chance - debut test away in the Sub-C
