The International Cricket Thread

Now it’s game on…..the pantomime villain in to bay…hope the bugger is walking back as quickly

I now really wish that Broad hadn't have said that "that's all you'll be remembered for" to Carey at Lords....

Oh I don't know.

Broad was wrong about Carey though, said the Bairstow incident would be what he's remembered for, but it will be as his final wicket

[Risso]

Remarkable.

[Drummond]

Hit a six with his last shot, and took a wicket with his final ball. Superb.

What a finish.  Couldn’t have written a better script really from an England point of view.  That last spell from Broad was almost unplayable. 

[Drummond]

2-all and if only it hadn't rained in Manchester.

Enjoyed being at Headingley, Old Trafford and The Oval. Just wish I'd had tickets for Lords and Edgbaston now!

Telling that Anderson didn't get on after the rain

Superb series. This will keep test cricket alive forever.

They can do what they like, the economists, the ghouls, the greedy ignorant fuckers, the know it alls that know fuck all, twisting sport anyway they can to wring a few pennies more will be aghast that once again, human endeavour, bravery, skill and sportsmanship thrill us all in a way they can never harness.

It's a shame  how Jimmy is finishing and even more so when you look at Broady's farewell.

[Richard E]

We could justifiably have won this series 4 or 5-0.

[London Villan]

4-1 was just 2 wickets and a session away. Frustrating yet brilliant in so many ways.

Wonderful test series, shame there isn't a sixth test like there used to be several years ago (I think?).  Broad was excellent and what a catch from Bairstow.  Great that we have not been beaten by them again in our own back yard.  I still can't watch the Aussies lift the urn though. 

[olaftab]

We could justifiably have won this series 4 or 5-0.

I couldn't disagree with that less

Thank god that boring test cricket is done and we can start The Hundred tomorrow.
