>leave the eu
no, dumb idea. i'm against it because of my job etc, but a lot of people stand to suffer on a security front. EU shares information well about terrorist attacks etc. Only way I can see leaving EU working is if it forced change and makes the EU less of a bloated self-serving bureaucratic0 nightmare
>control migration
controlling european migration, unskilled labour coming in from EU forces the government to turn away skilled workers/people who actually need our help due to influx of unskilled labour. example lots of children trafficked as sex slaves from russia etc are sent back because the government just need to hit immigration targets, and the children end up being abused again and probably straight back. we could help people like this but can't/won't currently.

>>68269658
I'm going for jobs at a bank in risk analysis. basically if we leave the EU less investment as less access to europe which is why a lot of people invest in the UK. a lot of banking issues arise from confidence, so even if the UK ends up being able to trade as part of the single market in europe a lot of people will rush to get money out of Britain as soon as we leave, leading to more and more people doing it etc.would risk the job I have a very high chance of getting because who wants to take on workers during a time of uncertainty?

most of it, the fact /pol/ blames minorities for everything. it's the culture they come from's fault, simple economic fact proves this most of the time. in the UK assuming every factor is equal testing of white and black kids in school leads to equal results. in america, black kids at 'white schools' do the same as white kids, everyone at 'black schools' fail, meaning black culture in america is flawed. yet pol claims niggers are dumb constantly. exact same situation with muslim countries their culture is horrible, which they bring to european countries. take them out of it and they are fine

>>68270203
Hazlewood is LITERALLY the 2nd best bowler in the world, only behind Broad
The way I see it, Starc is the most talented bowler in the world, but Broad is the most skillful, followed by Hazlewood.
To be a good test bowler you have to have an exceptional skill. James Anderson for example is a master of swing bowling. However, the reason Dale Steyn is an entire tier above Anderson is because he is just as good a swing bowler (atleast with the outy), but did it at 145 kp/h rather than 135 kp/h.
For me, Broad has the widest skill set to be successful in all conditions. Height, control of line and length. Decent control over the seam. Decent pace if he isn't being a fucking sook. Hazlewood is in the same mould. He swings the ball conventionally and with reverse. He seams the ball if that is on offer. He has good height and he has wonderful control of line and length. Basically McGrath-lite
The reason I say Starc is the most talented bowler is because he has the most toys. He has the height, he can swing it more prodigiously than Broad or Hazlewood and most importantly, he has express pace. The one thing he doesn't have yet is a radar, and that's why Hazlewood>Starc
Hazlewood is the guy you can bowl for 6-7 overs, set up a batsman and execute a plan. Starc is basically the guy who you bring on for 3 overs to see if he pulls an unplayable "jaffa" out of the bag and gets a wicket out of nowhere. And I would always take a reliable, pressure-building bowler like Hazlewood over a le impact bowler like Starc.
if Starc can find a rader like he has when bowling yorkers (which is why he is literally THE GOAT in white-ball cricket) he will be GOAT-tier.

Has there ever been a better squad of cricketers than Worcestershire's current XI? Serious question.

>>68272414

>Joe Clarke

>Tom Kohler-Cadmore
All those have a chance of playing for England. Rate Ross Whiteley too. Oh AND not forgetting Tom Fell coming back from cancer treatment :___;
>>68281417
Only half memeing, grew up in Worcestershire and always supported them. As a junior I played against D'Oliveira and Rhodes, and have met Rhodes Sr a few times. Yeah plenty of potential in the squad, hopefully brother Mo has paved the way for Worcestershire players to get a look in on the national stage, because the likes of Solanki, Davies, Batty, Moore and Ali all kept getting overlooked and jumped ship to bigger counties (and barely played for England again).
>>68272484

>>68270028
>the mullahs of pakistan
They are literally only relevant because of the Pakistan Army's Islamifaction policies in the 70s to consolidate their power. Pakistan was slowly becoming as secular as India before that.
>the oppressive dictatorships of the middle east
You can thank the British, French and Americans for that. Those dictatorships are in place so we can have our oil.
>the horrific and barbaric practices of indonesia
Elaborate?
>the police state of iran
Yet again, oppression fosters radicalism. Iran LITERALLY elected a secular democratic socialist in 1953 and the Brits and Americans LITERALLY threw him out because he wanted to nationalize their oil. The ayatollahs swept in power because they win hearts and minds. If you're poor and some priest gives you free food and education because his god tells him to, obviously you're going to support him over some corrupt Shah.
Anyone who thinks Islam is the root cause of these countries' problem is historically retarded and needs a proper history education. Islam is a dogshit religion, but facilitates these problems more than it creates them. It's also had its bright spots like the Islamic Golden Age.
While Western Europe was being eaten by rats and blaming Jews for it, the caliphate had made some of the most crucial steps forward in science and maths. You literally wouldn't have algebra if it weren't for Muslims.
I'm no fan of Islam by any stretch, but give credit where its due.

>>68297169
Yeah I initially thought it could be a good move to allow an extra batsman but really you'd just be able to swap Chandimal for Mathews and that may not really be a big advantage. Joyce is probably a better batsman than Shahzad, definitely more proven (though not as an opener).
He does keep in Afg's 4-day games sometimes but they prefer for him to not do it. His 200 came when he wasn't keeping.
And yeah Kohli and Rahane is 50/50 but I prefer Rahane slightly, he's a bit more trustworthy in tests.

>>68298634
link it here so we can samefag lad
>>68298488
I meant to say average.
Excluding Rahane's twin century against SA (which was pretty good), he averaged 30 in tests in 2015. This includes a 98 against Bangladesh and a 126 against Sri Lanka. It's not bad but a generally disappointing year of essentially statspadding.
Kohli averaged 42 if you include his century against Australia in that one amazing series, but averaged 34 if you exclude it. His form kind of continued in the series against Sri Lanka but then he didn't do much in the series against SA other than a 44 and an 88 in the last test.

It was literally the most foreseeable yorker of the World Cup and didn't move in the slightest. McMeme should have known it was coming and shouldn't have been trying to belt Starc for a six off the first ball on a pitch the size of the MCG

In retrospect, India should be 4
Lots of good players, but few GOATs
if #england are lion and #austraia are kangaroo then #virat kohli is king of zoo

Are these general rankings or ODIs?

Lmao what is this ""list"" even meant to be
India A is playing Zimbabwe pretty soon lads
>>68301327
Didn't realise it was on so soon tbqh
Might have it on in the background
in the market for a sugary daddy lads
>>68300352
If its overall India is in New Zealand tier
they were useless before 20 years ago, literally Pakistan has a positive win:loss ratio over them

KEK
Does England even have any unique flora and fauna? Probably a fucking pigeon or something
Off to Lord's today but I know next to nothing about cricket hehe
Giz some tips lads
found it lads
the brown rat is in endemic to England
>>68301619
makesure you boo Poot Ltd. if he comes on to bowl

not sure what that means, keep an eye out for me though, will be wearing a troll-face t-shirt xD
>>68301751
me neither, /r/cricket told me it was really funny though
>>68301619
Get a drink, get comfy, if you're going to move do it between overs.
>>68302090
>the absolute state of whoever runs this
Please watch India vs Zimbabwe lads
>>68302462
Watching right now
Too bad their team hasn't doing much after flower brothers
>>68302695
Yeah, all the decent players they produced have left the country though.
If people like Brendon Taylor, Kyle Jarvis, Ballance, and the Curren brothers played for Zimbabwe they would've been a lot better than they are today.
>>68301560
You have our flag on your flag you cuck.
I haven't watched a Zimbabwe game since they co-hosted the World Cup. Do they get any crowds?
>>68302950
England's flag is not on the Australian flag.
>109/5 against a team of literally who?s
Literally execute this entire country
>>68303930
Yes it is, look closer.

Look at your flag lol

We're talking about YOURS

Good evening Ausfailian Cucket Bogans. This is YOUR daily /rug/minder that the Test match begins in 20.

Reminder it was I, statscunt, who sent the terrorist tweet.
It makes me very happy to know that because of me, you will never be featured on Polite Enquiries.
>Zimbabwe getting BTFO by India A
Can someone just execute Mugabe already?
the highlight of my week is seeing Daniel desperately make hundreds of Polite Enquiries tweets and get ignored every time
Also reminder Daniel was the mastermind behind the terrorist opener debacle
Just put salad cream on a bacon sarnie, pretty nice. Thoughts?
>missing the opportunity to BTFO that >muh Stanford rape bitch
>sending her some pls watch our sport tweet
Y'all a bunch of fags desu
>>68304584
Literally why are they a test side anymore
Just axe them and promote Ireland
They're LITERALLY never going to recover and they're UNIRONICALLY projected to double their GDP per capita in over a hundred years, which is the worst of EVERY African nation. There is no future in that shithole, yet the ICC keep throwing money at it.
>>68304665
Based krazykrejza
Shouldn't you be in /rug/ watching your precious Wobblies right now though?
>>68304684
>go on /rug/ and drop an elite truth bomb
>everyone laughs and take it in stride, bro-tier posters allround
>post something on /cric/ mentioning something good about New Zealand cricket
>LE POO PEELAND 183 #FOREVERFASTER 125KPH CHIN MUSIC DANIEL XDDDD
Why is /cric/ so toxic?
>>68304665
Hopefully with Manohar in charge Ireland actually gets some backing. So far it's been Giles Cuck and the ECB denying them test status.
>>68304721
Australians.
>>68304749
This tbẖ
Execute Srinivasan and Clarke tbqh
The whole Ireland situation makes me FUCKING seethe. Ireland LITERALLY have a better domestic structure than Bangladesh and Pakistan, have shown that they can maintain their strength unlike Kenya and are ENTIRELY self sufficient as a professional cricketing body, while actual test nations like Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka are LITERALLY running at a loss.
Just give them fucking test status you hacks. I will LITERALLY go full Mark Vermeulen on the ICC HQ if this doesn't happen
>>68304749
Australians on /rug/ are based though
/cric/ is /nrl/ only that the autism isn't even entertaining
Although I enjoyed the Brexit debate yesterday
>>68304749
This. The Australians in /rug/ can't act like the ones in /cric/ because their team is shit and they'll get laughed at. The fact that the Australian cricket team is historically good means that the insufferable faggots here have a massive superiority complex and will literally refuse to accept any NZ player as being good, ever.
>>68304765
They also have an entire team's worth of fully professional players in the county championship already. How many pro players are there in Zimbabwe?
>>68304776
Which is funny, because KrazyKrezja is the pioneer and driving force behind the Poo Peeland rhetoric and is a DEVOTED member of the /rug/ poomunity.
>>68304812
>a DEVOTED member of the /rug/ poomunity.
Not really. He constantly talks about how he's a "casual".
>>68304765
What pisses me off even more than denying test cricket to Ireland is the lack of pyjama they get.
I mean, England are literally right next to them and play about a gorillion games these days. Would it kill them to give them a tri-series?
That rained off ODI last year is the last time they'll play Ireland for years. Ireland are unironically on par with Sri Lanka when it comes to pyjama these days
kek who the fuck is this
>>68304812
That said, I WILL drop a truthbomb on you losers when you say dumb shit like how Boult has bowling chin music or that McMeme and Le Glasses were relevant. I like the New Zealand team, but there are some supreme PP casuals that spout their opinions here sometimes, particularly when playing Australia.
Should just burn down the 'country' of zimbabwe desu, my grandad served there in ww2 in the RAF and it made him really sad how they managed to blow their own country up
>>68304839
ireland can probably beat pakistan easily in pyjama cricket I bet
>>68304839
They're playing 2 against Sri Lanka after the England tour
If they win those it could be good for them
We're also playing them, as are bangladesh, but that's just as warm up for the """"champions"""" trophy
>>68304853
Probably statsloser, he's the only one funny enough
when are we getting /sp/ - English Wicketkeeping?
>>68304878
The AusGODS have another ODI against them over here later in the year. They have a decent amount of pyjama memes coming up actually.
>>68304907
>the look of polite frustration on woake's face
>>68304892
Can someone make a compilation of all of the bitchstow drops?
>>68304907
Yeah and Afghanistan are playing both Ireland and Scotland. It's looking up, but not by much.
>>68304927
woops meant for
>>68304892
/cric/ on popular tweeting watch
Going to go for a run lads
>>68304938
SURELY they're going to bring back Jos for Pakistan
It's beyond a joke now
>>68304878
>We're also playing them
Based. It's good exposure for Ireland, considering that Bongladesh are unironically good in pyjama these days.
I actually like Bongladesh, their ODI team reminds me a lot of NZ in the early 2000s with the amount of utility players they have.
Fucking Pakistan shouldn't even be in the Champions Trophy tbqh, they unironically dodged the Zimmers series because if they lost it they wouldn't qualify
>>68304965
What's your time per km lad
>>68304977
Yeah, pretty much got to now that Bairstow has shown he can bat in the top 5 and Compton is surely dropped.
I'm guessing they'll have Cuckfield at 3, with Bairstow at 5.
Broad has an MBE and Cooke has a CBE now lads
>>68304990
It's pretty good lad
>>68305057
What number though
Got a raging hardon lads, dubs decides what I wank to.
>>68304978
Yeah, it's a fucking joke. Pakistan are terrible at limited overs
>>68305006
They probably won't select him as he hasn't played any first class cricket since October last year. I think if he was anywhere in the selector's radar they wouldn't have let him go to the IPL.
>>68304871
They probably could, although Pakistan have been bringing up some decent batsmen in their ranks.
But with Rankin back, Ireland's pace stocks are looking a lot better.
>>68305071
Fastest is under 3 minutes but my average is around 4.5 minutes for a 5km rum. I run in a hilly area so it's probably not accurate.
>>68305090
http://stats.espncricinfo.com/county-cricket-2015/engine/records/keeping/most_dismissals_career.html?class=4;host=1;id=2016;type=season
Looking at this, what about Read or Ambrose?
>>68305125
That's good tbqh
I'm at 5.5 for a 12 km run right now, but I'm too lazy to try to improve it
>>68305090
why isn't he back on the county circuit?
The IPL was ages ago
>>68305154
5.5 for a 12 km run is still really good.
What kind of terrain do you run on?
>>68305172
Mostly flat paths. There's about three small hills I'll run up two or three times in my course, but that's it.
>>68305169
they play a load of county championship matches to start the season and stop it for a couple of months to play white ball cricket, just as he got back the CC stopped and we're playing white ball stuff for awhile
>Sri Lanka shitting the bed
LMAO
>>68305251
They were doing so well too
Next wicket is the end of them.
>>68305251
>it's a SL collapses and depends on Thirimanne episode
why do Sri Lankans all have meme names except Mathews?
he looks as Sri Lankan as the rest of them, but he's the only lad whose last name I can pronounce
