RE: the Philander discussion last thread I genuinely believe he'll bowl just as well this test as he has this series. He literally grew up on bouncy meme wickets and has been elite in Australia and South Africa.

>all this shit posting
I genuinely can't stand shit posting. I really can't. It's the most autistic, pointless thing a person could actually find "entertaining". The idea that you think it's hilarious wasting hours of your "life" trying to bait people into replying to your shitty half arsed posts speak numbers about how lonely and pathetic you must be to get entertained doing this

It probably seems counter productive for me to write this, because shit posting genuinely makes me angry. It seems like it's near impossible to have a genuine discussion on this board without some fuckwit chiming in to say something stupid like "freshcunt" or "newcunt fresh off the boat from facebook or reddit detected".

I know that this will probably get a bunch of you stupid cunts replying to me calling me the "autistic" one for actually speaking up, because I genuinely want to have a discussion about something instead of being barraged with retarded responses that will no doubt have me reply to you about your stupid pointless comments.

Moderation is largely pointless because you all seem to use dynamic ips anyway so no matter what you'll continue your shit posting like it's some normal part of your everyday life.

The fact that anyone ever calls you out on your bullshit and you try and defend it, or continue replying in a shit posting fashion is childish as fuck considering most of you on here are at least 18-30 years old.

Fuck all your shit posting antics. Kill yourselves. You're not funny, or witty, or original, or entertaining. You're literally all rehashes of one another trying to be unique and funny, when you're all doing the same thing. Your pathetic "lives" while you sit here day in and day out shit posting are being wasted away because you find it hilarious to get people worked up 24/7. It's like you cunts are addicted to shit posting. Like you get a dopamine response from it or something.

Rant over cunts. Fuck off.

Ireland get bigger crowds at cricket games

wasn't there some league war in the 90s? did that kill club loyalty or something?
in AFL most of the Victorian sides have been around for 100 years so they have very passionate and loyal fan bases, even when they're playing like shit. The South and Western Australian sides were also built out of their own football league sides so there's tradition there too.

business idea: multiball

8 ball overs make a comeback

batsmen rotate the strike after each ball

5 stumps instead of 3

2 balls

second ball can be tampered with and used once per over

square leg umpire moves to point

How about we put a 20 second timer on the bowler once a fielder has first collected the ball?

captains must pop their collar and spit in their hands

hitting a batsman's body takes off 4 runs

>>77464695
would definitely support this idea

all runs count double

i batted at number 10 or 11 for the few matches i played for my school because i was just really shit

>>77467592
we did that in a league game a few years ago when the league umpires didnt turn up, decided to play pretend the umpires showed up and removed LBW's as we had to umpire our own teams. a lad got an absolutely dead LBW batting at 6 first ball and I was umpiring at the time, he ended up getting 140 kek

>>77468166
tell me about northern greentops

>>77468188
my problem is my technique is basically a mirror of westley's, obviously not as good, and I have to open on green tops with big hooping swing bowlers and I just hate it, love playing across the line hate LBW's

>>77467592

kek he's literally never going to get employed again

I'm convinced the Ashes won't be competitive.Australia'a bowling attack at home will be too much for this brittle England top order.Made the wrong choices for this South Africa series and getting easy runs and wickets against the Windies at home won't prepare you for shit.I just hope they can steal a test or two so it's not another embarrassing 5-0.

>tony was givin it to jarryd last night on world sport overnight. The New Zealand crowd took the Jarryd award, whose namesake tony described as a 'pain in the butt'.
>i thought tony was a bit harsh, jarryd had his opinions and was good for a laugh, but i'm starting to miss his antics.

I imagine he's the sort who's happy to settle for living off of the state.

Tbh if all four of >our pacemen are playing England won't have a chance

>>77479154
Well I'm expecting Starc, Hazlewood, Cummins and Pattinson to be the four.I don't know who >we have to take wickets in Aus apart from Broad(who seems a bit out of nick atm, but I'm sure he'll bring his A game to the Ashes).Wood is one of few Englishmen with actual pace but he's shite, doesn't take wickets.Especially coming back from his injury.

I really hate how homebabby cricket is becoming.
Australians can't play on anything that isn't a road, asians can't play anywhere where fast bowlers can perform, the English can't play without swing, the kiwis can't play without slow swing and the West Indies can't play at all

For Australia, the IPL has had a bad effect on adaptability. Fewer and fewer players are trying to go on county stints these days. Dunno the numbers, but I'd imagine the English aren't bothering with playing grade cricket here as much as they use to as well.

>>77479140
yeah we are pretty fucked
The Ashes is just becoming hometeamwinslol

>>77479189
Limited overs cricket is playing a role in this.Alastair Cook is amongst the last of a dying breed, a true test cricketer.Someone who can make ugly runs, someone with the grit to bat out the whole day in tricky conditions.We mock him for his perceived boring style but we'll miss him when he's gone.

Yeah I reckon England were going to be relying on Wood for the Ashes but he's going to be just as shit in Australian conditions.

I've heard a bit of talk about Roland-Jones after his performance vs South Africa, but he seems like the same shit as what England already have in spades.
You lads really need a bit of a cultural shift to get some actual pacemen. South Africa's best fast bowler and all of ours (pretty sure McGrath is barely Irish these days) are anglo, so there's no reason England can't produce any elite left armers that can bang it in short.

>>77479210
Still get some of them floating around. Renshaw, Pujara and Brathwaite spring to mind there. That said, Kohli hates Pujara for "not scoring quickly" enough and wants fucking Rohit Sharma in the team instead.

Wish we could just dial the cricket clock back 20-30 years if I'm honest.

>>77479222
>these days
dunno why I said that ignore that bit
what I meant was that he is probably 75% anglo or more

>>77479210
Uhm, do you not watch Dean Elgar play?

>>77479231
would probably punch kohl in the face before any other player

wait for Keith

>>77479231
More like Kohli hates Pujara because he knows Pujara is better than him lel

>>77479222
Toblerone will be an option in English conditions but I've yet to see anything to suggest he'll be a force elsewhere.Woakes might be a homebabby too, since he's added a yes of pace he's not really bowled much abroad so it's hard to say.

The difference is in growing up with the pitches and conditions, when can you really remember an English fast bowler with pace like, say, Cummins?

>>77479250
I said amongst the last of a dying breed, not THE last.Of course, Elgar is another.Maybe Amla too but I have suspicions that he's finished.

>>77479300
Tymal Mills is honestly the only one I can think of but he breaks his back bowling 2 overs of t20, plus he's also in the category of fast but useless with Wood.

>>77479300
New Zealand produced Bond and Hadlee in conditions arguably worse suited to flat out bowling than England's

is wood even that fast by international standards? his run up is like 6 steps

>>77479324
Yeah, he can't play test cricket or even 50 over cricket because of his back, can he?Shame but like you said, a bit useless like Wood.

>>77479338
Probably honed their craft in grade cricket though, I'd imagine.

>>77479341
Bitchwide didn't have a big run up either, comes down to the bowler really
I wouldn't describe Wood as being a super fast bowler, but he definitely is one of the fastest outside of Pakistan, Australia and South Africa.

>>77479355
Yeah could have done. I also remember Hadlee talking about how he wanted to be like Lillee and modeled himself off that, so maybe it's also part of being in the Australian sphere of influence

is there crossover between nz and australian accents? swear Vettori could pass as an aussie

>>77479627
Yes they're similar, although there are differences that make them distinguishable. They say 'ih' instead of 'eh', for example when they're saying 'deck' it sounds like 'dick'.

>>77479627
nope
their vowel sounds are very different from ours. for instance they'd pronounce "I dropped my pen" as "I dripped my puln"
