Frustrating this series as it's crammed into 6 weeks at the end of the summer. Finally balanced this one but I think the weather will be the winner.

Strider Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I can't seem to find it on my tv. I do have a Sling tv hookup with the Modbro app that has a bunch of foreign channels. What channel is it on in England, CP? Sky sports? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rm2551 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Chilli, unfortunately I abandoned Cricket decades ago. Lost interest. As a kid it was great when England and the West indies legends toured - and One Day matches were the big new exciting thing. I outgrew it long ago, so no f_cks given from this non-tragic. So good luck! I hope you go well (but go the Aussies!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I sympathise with the Aussies with that LBW decision, it just added to the drama. It doesn't help Tim Payne whingeing about it. Get over it man and move on !

Unfortunately Jules the test at Old Trafford has been sold out many months ago - not surprised though. A ticket was eye wateringly expensive. I will miss most of this one as me and Mrs CP are going golfing Friday/Saturday. Will be able to watch first 2 days You would have to pay me to go to London for the last one. Dangerous place to go and I haven't won the lottery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillumpuffer Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Just goes to show what a fucking joke it is to have an Ashes Test Match in England in September. It's not just Manchester that has this weather. It's countrywide The ECB should be ashamed at the way this is being commentated on by Shane Warne and Nasser Hussein. " wind chill of -10 degrees" "How can anyone live here??" It was the ECB that arranged a test match in the north of England in Autumn. For something this important in Cricket to cram 5 test into around 6 weeks is a fucking joke. Then again........................ isn't the World Cup (football) in Qatar in the summer?

chillumpuffer Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 14 hours ago, slave to zep said: 😍 Onya, boys! Yes congrats to the Aussies. One man Steven Smith. He was the X factor in the series. No surprise the test they lost was because he wasn't playing. For England? Not good enough and they looked very ordinary and scared of the opposition. Just goes to show the difference in white/red ball cricket. We will learn from this but until we change the opening batters then we will continue to struggle. On to the Oval which will be a (Smith) run feast bore draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
