Test Match Cricket

four days anyway.

WTF… I hope to fuck you copied and pasted that from another forum. If the boys back home found out you were into cricket you’d be ran out of it… Cop yourself on

Go shit in your hat.

That’s two really, really stupid posts I’ve seen from you in a few minutes. Why don’t you go and have a lie down there for a while pal and take a break from the forum. For a year or two maybe.

Bangladesh have won the second test by 108 runs. England chasing a target of 272 collapsed from 100/0 to 164 all out in the space of 22 overs. Even by the standard of England batting collapses, this is up there with the very best of them.

A embarrassing capitulation from England.

Doesn’t auger well for the upcoming five test series in India.

Great scenes for Bangladesh. That young off spinner Mehedi looks quality. India will murder England.

Even by the Poms low bar today in Dhaka will be especially remembered :grinning:

what did they get?

Humiliated.

No it won’t. It’s not even close. Sure they didn’t even lose by an innings.

A drawn series in Asia not to be sniffed at. Australia have lost their last 9 test matches in Asia - whitewashed 3-0 by Sri Lanka, 2-0 by Pakistan and 4-0 by India.

To paraphrase the England rugby captain John Pullin in his after dinner speech when England travelled to Dublin in 1973 (after the Five Nations was abandoned in 1972 when Wales and Scotland refused to travel to Dublin) - ‘We mightn’t be very good against spin but at least we turn up’.

Australia shamefully pulled the plug at the eleventh hour on their tour of Bangladesh this time last year, threw the toys out of the pram and refused to travel.

Nice try Pom lovers. Losing a test to Bangladesh is as bad as it gets. Ha ha

Running scared of Bangladesh and failing to fulfil the fixture is as bad as it gets.

That was really poor. They don’t have a decent spinner and still put down a number of chances. But then there was a complete turnaround and Cook and Duckett took it to 100/0. I was in the church and thinking “I suppose they will be 4 or 5 down by the time mass is over” sure enough they were 135/5. Root was sick, Ballance was the usual walking wicket. Stokes and Bairstow couldn’t save them this time. They will probably get hammered in India though Broad (2nd test) and Anderson were absent this time.

Nobody in the real world believes that Jeff. I even doubt you do

It really isn’t.
Losing 5-0 to Australia is, I would imagine.

I don’t think there’s much hope of that happening to anyone soon.

Ah the Aussies are like mushrooms.
