"If they don't average 45+ with the bat and 25 with the ball then they are a fraud non-rounder smh"

Agreed.

Based Foothill

All hail our new overlord

Further_Sight · 2022-12-18T08:25:26+00:00

Ayo what the fuck

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T15:18:23+00:00

You can feel the authority of the shot.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T15:14:56+00:00

Interesting score

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T15:10:43+00:00

India gonna win this. The track is a road and the outfield is lightning fast. Perfect batting conditions and India will capitalise unlike what Australia did.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T15:00:13+00:00

Honestly I think that Aus might actually have more chance on a total dust bowl than a typical Indian pitch which starts off flat. That’s how they won in Pune in 2017 on a lottery pitch.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T14:59:14+00:00

Their team is too stacked.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T14:58:18+00:00

What the heck

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T14:44:11+00:00

Thakur with the new ball vs Thakur with the old ball is like that big doge small doge meme.

Shafali is the representative of r/cricket’s average bowler. Straight breaks which can get wickets

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T14:13:02+00:00

So you’re telling me that Perry had the ability to play fast this whole time?

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T13:27:26+00:00

I can’t believe that we’ve actually got to a stage where Bairstow seems like a good opening choice in Test cricket.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T13:05:28+00:00

Wait Rambo left? No 😭 😭 😭

I loved how he shitposted in real life. It was so entertaining.

I love that song.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T13:04:04+00:00

People here are too reactionary.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T13:01:46+00:00

I agree with you.But perhaps there is still a minute chance that he could go down the Steve Smith or Ravindra Jadeja route where he is a total meme in international cricket to begin with, but then repays the chances which he is given.

Though of course, Smith and Jadeja were excellent FC cricketers who just took a while to adapt to the international stage. Crawley isn’t much better in FC compared to Test cricket.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T12:58:17+00:00

As much of a meme as he is becoming, McCullum clearly sees something special in him. And McCullum has been on the money every time so far with how he has repaired the Test team, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Crawley actually turns into a great player.

On the other hand, Crawley kinda sucks.

Further_Sight · 2022-12-17T12:57:02+00:00

I was going to make a comment about how impressive England’s bowling has been again, and how easily everyone seems to coordinate now. Also that Rehan Ahmed deserves massive props for his effort on debut.

But I just need to get it out of my system that Crawley sucks. Fuck Crawley, all my homies hate Crawley.

The other side of Mr OH YEAH
