>see stokes who is shit has gone HAM
>no one believed me when I said we were getting 450+
>the English media probably still think we will lose
Damn it feels good to be English
>>64641520
Really happy that this is still a meme!!!
>fastest ever 150 for England
>previous was BASED TRESCOTHICK against fucking bangladesh
What's the hottest meme of 2016 so far lads?
Definitely think "Rooney Mara is autistic" has taken off!
>>64641544
Yeah I mentioned it earlier m8, fucking having to eat my words from last night and loving it. This SA team is ded. Just ded.
>>64641552
>not GazTheWolf
why is poodt bowling. literally what is the point, may aswell just raise the white flag
This series has been dogshit. Even the 2013/14 Ashes was more competitive than this.
test cricket is kill
>>64641561
>Aussie complaining about a onesided series
Oh the ironing. Let us fucking enjoy it while it leasts.
>>64641566
'no'
Usman Khawaja top scorer of Australia's 1st innings @ 4.30 is FREE MONEY lads
considering all the retirements / injuries / resting that we've had / will have I was wondering what you lads wouldd pick as an odi team that's apparently gettin picked tomorrow, for me it's:
1. Warner
2. Finch
3. Smarsh
4. Smith
5. Maxwell
6. MMarsh
7. Wade
8. Faulkner
9. Sandhu
10. Paris
11. Dorff
Gives us 6 actual bowling options and a bit of batting depth, and no need for an actual spinner on our shit pitches
what do you think /cric/?
>>64641575
Khawaja over Smarsh
Coulter-Nile should play if he isn't injured.
>>64641539
Who can stop us lads?
>>64641554
It's just a shame we wont get to bat again really. Will probably be over by day 3.
Kinda not going to enjoy being accountable to my words with this flag when one of my lucky guesses goes wrong.
We could have an incredibly bright future though if our young players reach their potential because there's even more coming through.
>>64641561
Are you the guy that keeps calling him a part time spinner? He is their frontline spinner and literally HAS to bowl because they've only got 3 shagged quicks.
When will >we retire lads, 600?
>>64641575
i unironically rate watson higher than marsh for ODI's
I literally called this
Thank you based stokes
Thanks for the two triple centuries in ICC too
>>64641569
im saying that from a neutral perspective. No one expect AUSvNZ or AUSvWI to be anything but a steamrolling.
But its just been so disappointing how bad South Africa have been. If it was like this played in England, I wouldn't complain. But the fact that SA have been so bad AT HOME is rather exceptional
>>64641575
Too many Worstern Australians.
>>64641575
last two are wrong
Will Bairstow score a century?
>>64641575
>10. Paris
>11. Dorff
ayy fucking lmao
Glad the record is likely in tact
222 is literally one of the best innings of all time
>>64641552
/tv/'s really forcing the anvil hoarder meme, might take off.
>>64641524
that's why I'm saying if they finally get it together you're fucked, if they're as they have been it'll be a walkover
>>64641579
Smarsh is in hot form but yeah that's fair, get rid of Finch maybe - overrated, and Coulter-Nile is out for 2 months
>>64641584
yeah same but there's no point playing him, ODI's mean fuck all so may as well have younger blokes I'd say
>>64641544
Why don't people rate Stokes?
He's easily in my TTOTY2015
>>64641587
On one level I agree with you, I was actually looking forward to seeing this SA team at their best, but injuries and the humiliation in India meant we got this instead.
Still, England have played genuinely well. In an ideal world these would've been closer matches, but you can only play what is in front of you.
>>64641604
It still annoys me that McMeme was one boundary away from obliterating the record.
Warner
Finch
SMarsh
Smith
Maxwell
MMarsh
Faulkner
Wade
Sandhu
Meme and Dorff
Hazlewood
desu
>Stokes 161 (141)
>>64641610
They are not getting rid of Finch, he is there to fulfil the Cucktorian quota.
YEWL THE VOOL \M/
>>64641612
>Why don't people rate Stokes?
I think everyone rates his potential. The thing is that he's a meme player who plays an absolute blinder and then goes missing for 5 tests.
>>64641613
>Still, England have played genuinely well. In an ideal world these would've been closer matches, but you can only play what is in front of you.
yeh definitely
looking forward to the 2017/18 Ashes because it looks like this England team will be able to play in >our homebabby conditions
>>64641612
Pretty much every England fan likes him, you can't not. Adds so much to the team having an all rounder this intense who adds with both bat and ball.
This is BY FAR the best thing he's ever done in a test match so far though.
>>64641624
yeh boiii
>>64641627
He showed up during the Ashes which was quite important tbqhwy sempai
>>64641621
watson in for mmarsh and behrendorff out for ncn
>>64641620
Nah I'm kinda glad it stood
Astle's is the ultimate meme innings. 4th innings, no fucking chance of winning, just going nuts for fucking memes and pissing off england. McMeme's was a first innings flat track slogathon
>>64641575
Fucking shit bowling attack m8
Warner
Smarsh
Bushman
Smeth
Memeswell
Mmarsh
Wade(or anyone really)
Fuckner
Pattinson
Darkie quota player
Lyon
So it has literally just been shit bowling then?
>>64641612
Because his stats are bad and he very rarely contributes with either runs or wickets. I personally would have kept Woakes over him, but that makes me look a bit thick I guess. He doesn't have Flintoff spells with the ball and that's what we loved in our last real all rounder.
>>64641606
>tfw people probably think me being an expat is a meme because of people like you ;_;
>>64641591
>>64641588
Who else though really? Maybe hastings as a bowler but with all the injuries and resting that'll happen it's not like we have other good options now
>>64641634
In one test where Broad had already obliterated Australia. He batted like shit in the other tests apart from Lords though.
In time he will develop into a more consistent player but I can see why people find him frustrating.
>>64641635
>behrendorff out for ncn
NCN is kill
out for 12 weeks
>>64641628
This is the best I've felt about the England team in a long time. Even when we've had success, there has always been a few things I'd want to change, with us being too reliant on one or two batsman. Right now we are building into a really strong, balanced team. It's not all there but for once it feels like things are coherently building to get BETTER, not just barely held together
>>64641634
he was literally the only good player in the 5-0 ashes in aus
>>64641643

I seriously dont see where Woakes could be threatening unless its a cold English morning. Not to mention his batting is really mediocre to bat in the top 7.
>>64641643
DOUG

RUG
nah srs, Pattinson will play, Sandhu will play, idk the 3rd quick.
Yesterday I said when was the last time Stokes had a great innings with the bat for England and he has delivered.Fantastic knock.
>>64641651
NCN is out, 2-3 months - nobody seems to get that, if he was available he'd be like first in that shit attack but he's RIP
>>64641649
its a shame your cricket isnt on TV because this is the type of team which could make cricket popular
Even your good 2010/11 team, even though they were very good, they were boring as fuck. Literally only KP and half Bell were interesting to watch. The rest made you want to sleep.
This is a genuinely exciting and interesting team.
People unironically thought we'd getting destroyed this series a couple months back.
Another boring one sides series.
>playing a T20 field in a test match
Is Amla even trying
>>64641663
Sandhu's mediocre as fuck honestly, dont get the hype
stokes on fast runs watch
>>64641677
He's brown and he's a Big Strong New South GOATman.
Honestly lads this may be the best innings of 2016 already. I know it's a first innings on a flat track but when you consider everything this is monumental
South Africa may have been exposed and are kill, but they are STILL the number 1 team in the world and this is possibly the most utterly ridiculous and dramatic fashion. This isn't just a fall from #1, this is a furious destruction of a team, who now look like absolute shit.
>a guy who averages like 29 and hasn't shown up AT ALL in months, plus is returning from injury meme wallops 170+ in fuck all time after his top order hadn't made the most of a great pitch
If he gets 200 I'm calling it. 2016 won't top this.
>>64641673
Fucking this. Even when this team plays badly it is thrilling as fuck, look at some of the series last year.
It's surreal as fuck supporting and England test side who can counterpunch and take momentum BACK.
What's the best U2 album, lads? The Unforgettable Fire for mine

>>64641659
I used to think Woakes was shit, but he's upped his pace, got a lot more accurate and was unlucky not to get a few wickets last test.
Also he has some big scores in county cricket and a good England average.
Stokes was averaging like 40 with the ball and 25 with the bat, I thought he needed to be rested lol as meme ali has a good shout for being 6 and woakes 8.
>>64641664
I remember that. When was the last time he got a lot of wickets? Hopefully he can bag 8 or 9 after tea.
Although seriously this is hard to watch, how the mighty have fallen. What Stokes is doing in unbelievable though tbf. He wont be dropped again until 30 after this.

It's not a flat track. But I agree. One of the most brutal innings I've seen in YEARS.
South Africa are getting meme'd by a couple of fucking gingers
AHAHAHAHAHA
>>64641706
>implying Voges' 280-odd wasnt the best innings of the year
>>64641642
I don't know his stats but every time I watch him play he's always contributing, whether it is bowling, batting, fielding or exchanging bants with Samlels. I like him a lot for his intensity, if he is as translucent in form as you say he is I hope he gains consistency this year.
I literally had this gut feeling that England would take this series but never wanted to publicly admit it on /cric/ because there's so much ABE here
Still surprised I was right honestly, this is a fucking mauling
Can someone make a meme picture of Bairstow and Stokes together with the tag line "gingers are the strongest race in the world" and maybe some stats on top or Shaun Pollock hiding in the background?
xoxoxo
>>64641710
bradman didn't have to hit meme maximums to do it tho
>>64641604
He's fucking going for it lol
Bet he knows 100%
This innings is going to be 600+.Wow, I'm astonished at this collapse from a fairly decent position, team ginger really tore up the script.
If Stokes breaks Astle's record will Daniel off himself?
>>64641720
second this
>>64641604
Not going to happen, he'd have to hit three successful sixes
Looks like it'll EASILY be the fastest english 200 if he make sit. Fastest was Botham in about 220

>>64641929
>Stokes isn't even good
>>64641922
This is objectively true because the pitches have historically been slow pieces of shit that kill any pace bowler's desire. There's always a lot of grass though so you get 120kph trundlers like Brent Arnel destroying domestic teams.
BUT, the pitches have genuinely changed a fair bit in the last 2-3 years. Theyre a lot quicker and bouncier than they used to be and we're starting to see the bowlers increase in speeds as well. Hopefully it continues in a positive trend.
>>64641901
