Kookaburra ball in county cricket a terrific idea. No end of dull as ditchwater cricket being played out there, and no England players playing it anyway. Amazing.

A ball so shit that Sam Curran is very close to making his second First Class hundred,

Just when you imagined the English cricket authorities must have exhausted every half arsed managerial or administrative fiascos:
Rob Key.

Durham have taken nine wickets so perhaps I was going too far with this criticism of the Kookaburra ball.

Poor George Drissell: 45 - 1 - 247 - 1

Unchanged team for England

Plenty of talk Bumrah won't play, which is insane

They’ve said he’ll only play three Tests. That’s taking “rest” too far.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Even if they have to stick rigidly to that, you can't leave him out when you're 1-0 down.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Could be 2-0 down going into the third test at Lords, if you want a chance in the series he should be playing this test IMO.

I can feel myself sounding like Fred Truman just thinking about this. They need to spend a week down t’ mine to realise how lucky they are. Lad should be able to bowl all day given his short run up. Don’t know they’re born these days.
