    I can also ensure a wicket falls or a goal is scored by nipping to the toilet for less than a minute (unless of course a wicket or goal is required).
    Judging by this innings you have the worlds smallest bladder

    South Africa would be in big trouble if we'd taken all our chances

    When England are bad, they're terrible, but when they're good, they're brilliant.
    Brilliant seems an understatement

    Funny how after actually playing a few games of ODI and not some tin pot pointless rubbish, ENG can play ODI cricket

    Maybe there could be an ODI competition to practice playing ODIs?

    72-9 Bavuma unable to bat.
    England win by a record 342 runs.
  • Well, we've had worse games.
  • Impressive victory but a dead rubber at the end of the summer. At least bethell is hitting some form… congrats to him on his first ever professional hundred

    Same as against Australia 
    Saffers won the series then they conceded 413 in the dead rubber.

    This isn't altogether surprising given that we lost the last three series in Australia in total 0-13 and for the last nine series there we are 4-29

    May be an image of 6 people and text that says CRICKET GAF ad cim  DID  KNOW NOT A SINGLE MEMBER OF THE CURRENT ENGLAND SQUAD HAS EVER WON A TEST MAT IN AUSTRALIA IN THEIR ENTIRE LIVES

    Fun shortened T20 happening in Cardiff. England innings reduced to 5 overs to get a DLS target of 69

    Possibly the best bit of this match is the disdain Athers has for it
  • Brook has been shocking last couple of weeks 
    Brook is an outstanding cricketer but I remain very unconvinced he is captain material.

    Perhaps it’s just me but whenever I have seen him interviewed recently he gives the distinct impression that he can’t really be arsed.

    That’s just because he’s from Yorkshire

    'Games' like last night are an absolute rip off, just get out there lads, be it in thunder, lightning, earthquake, blizzard or hurricane just to ensure the spectators don't get a refund .. totally out of order

    Does Adil have one Ashes tour left in his shoulder? 
    Does Adil really want one more Ashes tour? His central contract is unlikely to change for playing in the Ashes and by doing so he might write himself out of some of the franchises either because they clash or, more to the point, because of injury.  

    We are a bowler short at the moment today whereas at other times we've gone in with someone like Overton but that has left us a batter short. I know that I will be preaching to the converted but there has to be a place in the side for Rehan for Bethell or Jacks. The irony is that Rehan has spent all summer proving himself whereas Bethell has been prevented from playing in county cricket by the ECB and is looking extremely undercooked as a result. 

    When asked this week about the prospect of playing in the Ashes, Rashid  said “It would be a no. I’m quite comfortable and confident of what I have been doing. But I’m sure it wouldn’t come to that, because the spinners coming through now are very good and when they go there they’ll put good performances in as well. So I’m confident they’ve got it sorted."

    Couldn't the Australians manage to squeeze any more red on the middle of their new Test cricket kit?

    Just turned in on and had a wtf moment re the rate

    Why does the SA bowler have tape over the (betting?) sponsor? Not sure yet if he is the only one - Muslim maybe?

    Bloody hell, yeah I was wrongly focussed on live football tonight.

    I missed Buttler's innings with more 6s than dot balls!
