Missed the first innings cos didn't realise it was on until I noticed some posts on here. Sounds like Archer wasn't able to bowl and we still kept them down to a score we would usually chase down. Not a disaster. And they only won because of a century from a cheating convict bastard anyway.
It was a weird game and had a pre-season friendly feel to it. Woakes didn’t field but he batted, Archer was on the field as a sub fielder when he slipped over, Dawson and Wood got injured so Rashid and Archer batted, Collingwood fielded wearing Wood’s kit. I was half expecting them to start playing the 6 and out and last man stands rules that we used to use when we were kids.
I know it was against the Crims but I couldn’t raise much enthusiasm for it.
