Bazball 2.0 - they're getting faster and faster and more consistent with it. Ridiculous from Harry Brook to hit 9 sixes in a day. Honestly, quite excited to see if other teams come up with some sort of radical approach to combat this.

For a Test bowler, something its simply a case of hitting line and length during tough patches and these guys are just gonna knock that out of the park. if they had a series in India - I would have loved to see how they would have attacked the quality spinners on the rag turners and the approach India would take to prepare those pitches.

I'd hate to be chosen for a tour match against England. Could really dampen your career prospects.

Interestingly just found out (little late) Gary has moved on to ZIM. Great to see him notching a ton in red ball cricket.. this should make Gary happy now.



Found no thread for WI-ZIM, creating new one not worth it..so as Ex ENG player... I feel this post belong here.

A lot of guys have in the past few months. One of them is bound to catch him.

Gilbert thwarts Brook again

I hate to have to cheer on England, but only one team has Scott Kuggeleijn and I must cheer for the other.

So come on Brook and co!

Damn that's unlucky for Brook.

Time for some Night Hawk action.

Declaring on day 1, nine wickets down, after 59 overs. I love it.

Incredible tactics from England to declare the innings on first day with 30odd overs remaining. I understand only one wicket was left but most teams would have banked to bat and get 20-30 more runs with the last wicket.
