I thought their decline had been arrested a few years back but this is a new low. I won’t be pathetically partisan and profess a love for the Scotland cricket team but the symbolism of yesterday is huge for them.Think they’ve still got to win another game to qualify for the WC though?… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the top two teams qualify. It’s quite a complicated process where the top 3 out of the two groups go to the super 6 (final group). But then sone teams carried sone points to the focal group from the earlier group. West Indies didn’t which is why this defeat has put them out already. Scotland are third with two matches left I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all very sad. Bit like this ashes series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30487 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 You could probably do that at the end of every over and catch somebody out. Just like you could Mankad someone about twice an over. It’s within the rules but it would absolutely ruin the game. It’s accepted practice that it you’re in your crease it’s effectively a dead ball. Not withdrawing the appeal is pretty low.

It was the correct call, but it’s hardly in the spirit of the game. Chances are they’re going to win this test anyway, no need to be cunts about it. Has significantly got the crowds back up though. Bloke behind me is saying he’s never heard booing like it in 30 years of coming to Lords 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14642 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Fuckin hell Stokes is livid and no wonder.

Gemmill 34681 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Broad furious too. Like PL says, these cunts can't help themselves. Extremely unlikely but I'm desperate for Stokes to somehow pull this off now. Haha Hazelwood you tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
