Pretty funny that “we’ve got two spinners but they’re loving poo poo so let’s get off the field” is an acceptable option

It's gonna be raining/bad light for the rest of the match too pretty much. Sucks as it had been sunny and 30+ for the past few days

I couldn’t get time off work until Saturday aka day 4, and I haven’t bought tickets since I wasn’t convinced the Saffers would last that long. Looks like it’ll be a washed-out draw instead

I finished crickenomics and I give it a solid average of 40. It's very disjointed and comes off as a series of blog post and long form articles instead of a coherent whole APART from making the point, over and over again, that Test cricket is dead unless something can be done about India and England (I don't know how you get away with it Australia but you do) and that cricket is classist as gently caress which is also killing it.

Pant needs unspecified surgery and other "treatment for ligament tears" following injuries to his head, back and leg. That chap might not be playing for a while.

Gotta wonder what dirt Maharaj has on the SA selectors for them to keep picking him. He's been complete rubbish the whole tour, I don't think he's even taken a wicket at this point? Harmer has looked way more dangerous in his limited opportunities e; good lad Usman, quality dancing there haha

The Fox cricket lunch break was pretty funny. They were testing different eras of bats. which resulted in Hussey nerding out and raining down cricket balls on school children and the ch7 crew.

Yeah I liked that. Some interesting stuff about bats plus it's nice that they all get along and give each other poo poo the whole time.

Surely keeping up to the stumps and having a silly mid off is against covid protocols with cheeks batting.

Gunna be hilarious when Aus keep batting in the morning (weather permitting, the forecast is worse than for today) just so Khawaja can hit 200

Nah it's younger than that, iirc a random American mod waded in a few years ago and demanded we reboot the thread, so we just had the title changed to be a few years earlier This is probably the third or so iteration of the cricket thread though I think?

Ah yes, back when the solution to "large threads break the forums" was "don't have large threads" rather than "fix the forums because that shouldn't happen"
