Re: Cricket season
Fantastic! and feel sorry for Bracey to run so far to receive the adulation of the crowd to realise that there are only 17 of them!
If they could only find a way of generating non test income for the regular season cricket.

Re: Cricket season
I think they’ve given up and just decided to flog the game to private investment.

Re: Cricket season
Great recovery by Ireland to win pretty serenely today. At 21/5 they looked well beaten. Lower order batting seems to be better than top order these days!
McBrine had a great match.
2 wins in tests is 2 more than I thought Ireland would get.

Taking 4 out of the 60 wickets to fall doesn’t sound as good.big mervyn wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2024 9:04 pm Jimmy Anderson topped the bowling averages for the Eng WI seriez
Bitter pill to swallow for many, especially Lancastrians, but he got a proper send off in that game at Lord’s.
Re: Cricket season
Said to the wife on the way to the ground that McBrine and Tucker were well capable of 50s today.
They played exceptionally well, albeit in good batting conditions.
Ireland were somewhat fortunate with the decision to call play off on Saturday evening.
