The Ashes 2023

Sure there was talk of a retractable roof being installed in headingly a few years back.
Understand money is tight in domestic cricket but would have thought funding assistance would be available especially to the northern counties and could be used for multiple events.
Seems so stupid to continually rely on English summer weather.

 

[Nightman]

Doesn't look good at all for the whole rest of the match.
The draw is 7/1....

The draw is now 4/1 on the exchanges. I hope you laid some of that 7/1 earlier and backed the 4s for a handsome profit.

I shudda been switched on to it. The draw was 9.2 when I checked this morning - crazy price.

Looking at the forecast for the next two days I think we’ll see enough play to get a result.

This suits us really. Get woakes and wood a bit of rest.

 

[arch stanton]

this will end with a result if we get the sum of a day's play over the next two and a bit days

Play to start 4.45 under excellent bowling conditions

hopefully some movement in the air to take the batsmen out then Wood to splaff the tail.

Get Head and/or Marsh early, game on bigly

 

[Charro]

Can see them going back in soon.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Great conditions to bowl, so they set up for bouncers

Trying to be too smart all series

 

[Obes]

1 over before the rain returns, sake.

 

[Charro]

Farcical.

Stupid. Ball swinging…. Attack with close fielders. Head can nick off as anyone

Exactly what I was going to post. Madness that we try to bump someone out in these conditions

 

[Obes]

Massive wicket to get. Let’s rip through these.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Big wicket

Chance to limit this now to 250
