The England ODI machine keeps rolling on. I've seen Mahmood play in a few domestic games on TV this season and he has looked a real handful, so good to see him get a chance. Also good to see Parkinson get a chance and take a couple of wickets, as a leggy comes in handy in ODI cricket.
I was hoping to watch on TV after work yesterday. Could have done without England being so clinical. Game was over before I logged off my PC
Quote from: UK Redsox on July 09, 2021, 08:46:31 AMI was hoping to watch on TV after work yesterday. Could have done without England being so clinical. Game was over before I logged off my PCNormally it’s a problem for visiting teams especially those from the sub continent to adjust to the English conditions but COVID restrictions have made that problem much much worse. We saw this with Sri Lanka’s performance. Whilst their team is in transition they were totally ill prepared to face England. Same will happen to Pakistan as they have played little or no cricket since arriving here. I have tickets for Tuesday at Edgbaston and hoping that it is a more competitive match🤞
That match at Edgbaston was a marvellous palette cleanser after the last couple of days, wonderful sport, good natured crowd, lovely weather and a fitting tribute to Bob Willis.
