England v Sri Lanka Test III: Lords
Day 1
England lead 2-0, which obviously means they will lose this one.
No other cricket of note is being played right now.
Damn that's not the webm I thought it was
cricket is gay
the fuck are you watching that garbage series for?
its more one sided than AUSvWI and your country isnt even involved
>>68237338
Again, I think the big slab of evidence against this theory is the fact that this neo-statscunt CLEARLY still knows a lot about cricket. Neither AMS nor neo-AMS knew anything.
BUT, we haven't seen shitspouter around with his old name for a while now, he could have assimilated another poosonality, true.
>>68237372
He's a friendless loser who thinks watching English boreblock is his intellectual gateway to more refined tastes.
He's Daniel without the massive ego.
>>68237410

>>68237410
>He's Daniel without the massive ego.

>He's Daniel
Can someone from /cric/ explain the MUH AGGRESSION/lol LOSE2WIN tactics that Kikeal Cuck used to play with when he captained?
>>68237311
I mean, yeah it's a good ball but this isn't impressive at all because LITERALLY some of us shitposters on a chinese imageboard are probably better at batting than Nuwan fucking Pradeep.
All you have to do is not be a coward against a 130 kp/h bowler and just stay fucking inline and you have a better chance than that guy
If it was Mitchell Johnson or Morne Morkel I might understand, but its fucking James Anderson
>>68237434
This guy clearly has zero self-esteem, which is why he's more invested in my pseudo-gimmick than I am.
This is different from Pussyiel Gay, who was hellbent on establishing his gimmick(really just his boring life) as the pre-eminent /cric/ persona.
You get the feeling that this guy would be open to swallow his non-existent pride and engage in social activities, unlike Cuckiel who'd do absolute fuck-all to endear himself to his peers and then whine about them not inviting him anywhere.
Reminder to join the faces of /cric/ to show support to our American friend.
>>68237464
?
I just wanted to post it because it's such a #11 meme dismissal, which don't happen that much anymore because everyone in the tail can now memeslog 20 odd
I mean look at that fucking bat position he's missed it by 3 inches at least
>>68237457
It's the delusional idea that if you memeswing and/or pack the field with more catchers when the game isn't going your way you can some how flip the game in a very short time. Which is true, on the few times that it works.

>>68237372

>>68237457
Captaincy in boreblock is a literal meme. A captain has next to no effect on his team's performance in boreblock.
T20s and ODIs are infinitely more demanding for a captain, given the limited opportunities in the format to maximize impact. Hence why Dhoni was the GOAT
>>68237534
Hi Daniel, you're already on the faces of /cric/. I wasn't talking to you friend :)
>>68237496
No this is Daniel. The difference is that he is now steadfastly refusing to acknowledge that it is him. I can only assume that he is doing this because he doesn't want more discussion about his personal life. While that is understandable, this charade he has going on is both needless and laughable
>>68237389
ams is so devoted to the act of poosonality theft that he LITERALLY spent the last four months studying every Wisden in GREAT detail just to assume the mantle of statscunt
>>68237579
This is surreal
>Dhoni was the GOAT
I'm sure of it, this is part of Shitspouter's "endgame". He's taken the /rug/ war and brought it to /cric/
>>68237583
Shut the FUCK up Ankush. Kill yourself. Right fucking now.

It's pathetic that you spend all this time here and still can't identify a statschrist post.
>>68237601
haha you frist Daniel :)
>>68237595
You may be right. See >>68237601
Daniel was historically incapable of giving Kohli or Dhoni any credit.
>>68237605
I would have said that it's statsy but Daniel hates me the most over here, hence the over the top aggression.
>>68237579
Anyone still doubt me that this is AMS after this miserable excuse of a ""post"" ?

Hi, newcomer to /cric/! It seems you have stumbled upon our nifty old sport.
You're probably wondering: what the hell are these guys in whites doing? Why are they playing with a paddle? Is this a new meme? But did you know that cricket has been played for over 200 years? Wow! That's really something.
Here's something that might help you understand the game more:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_cricket
And while you're here, it's best if we introduce you to some of /cric/'s finest memes so you don't feel left out :)
Here are a few of the classics:
>Is David Warner related to Shane Warner?
Referring to 2 famous Australian cricketers, this is a humorous play on words of current Australian batsman David Warner and Australian spin legend Shane Warne(spin is a form of bowling that you'll come to know and love). The similar personalities of the two players also makes this amusing, as it's likely that they are probably related!
>Will Smith score a century?Another delightful play on words. Here we're referring to current Australian captain Steven Smith, and the question is whether he'll score a century. However, this question is always answered with "Will Smith is an actor m8", a reference to popular African-American actor Will Smith, someone I'm sure you're familiar with!
>Daniel
Daniel is a cricket fan from New Zealand well known for his idiosyncrasies, such as his worship of progressive rock, the English County Championship and infatuation with average Slavic girls(surely a step down from the babes you have in Europe or America, haha). It is common to reply to New Zealander posts with "hi daniel", as a reference to /cric/'s most popular Kiwi.
>Holly or Ellyse?
This is an ongoing debate as to who is the better looking female cricketer: Australia's Holly Ferling and Ellyse Perry(who represents Australia in both cricket and soccer - wow!)
There's so much more in /cric/ to offer! Stick around!

You literally have zero evidence to refute Dhoni being the GOAT captain.
He won a World Cup with absolute shitters in his bowling attack. Had he not done it, we wouldn't have the IPL, and cricket would be languishing in the same threshold of relevance as fucking badminton.

>>68237854
>while still managing my own startup, gf and a social life.
THIS IS AMS. CONFIRMED.
Pretty much every single one of his "poosonalities" in /rug/ involved him making up bullshit for his life, like the fucking donut factory job and his law degree and his chemical engineering gf. It's the exact same style.
And bravo, I must say. This is a solid development.

Based neo-statsy
the look in her eye, you just KNOW they banged
Gurinder is known to be THE most hung guy in Australian cricket, possibly one of the biggest in the world. his cock has been described as "like an evian bottle", with gargantual thickness that would rival shane diesel and shorty mac. im estimating his size to be at least 8.5" bone pressed, with OVER 7" of girth. he would have absolutely destroyed Holly’s pussy.
they would have spent hours and hours on foreplay, getting herself wet enough just so she can take it. i can just imagine her begging for it, with Sandhu barely able to force it past the knob, and Holly moaning and squirming, demanding him to force it in deeper. she would have orgasm'd within seconds of taking the entire length, being filled and stretched right up to her cervix.. the orgasm would have been powerful, with her vaginal muscles clamping down on Gurinders throbbing monstrosity, her whole body quivering in euphoria..
i bet she still masturbates to the memory of it

David Warner is the smartest international Cricket player in either tests or limited overs. Not only that, but David Warner is more intelligent than both Barack Obama and Thomas Edison. Do you think I'm joking? I'm not.
Warner scored a 42/50 on the Wonderlic intelligence test. A score of 20 is consistent with average intelligence. To convert a Woderlic score to IQ, double the value and add 60. This means Warner has an IQ of 144.
To add some context, this means David Warner has a higher IQ than the following individuals:
Thomas Edison
Abraham Lincoln
Thomas Jefferson
Barack Obama
Bill Clinton
Adolf Hitler
Here are the Wonderlic scores for other relevant Cricket stars:
Alastair Cook - 35
Kane Williamson - 33
Stuart Broad - 28
Virat Kohli - 28
Steve Smith - 27
Marlon Samuels - 6

The problem with walkcunt is that he has no conviction in his "opinions".

Women who decide to take sport seriously enough to make it to an international level are almost never normie, and thus, far less attractive in general.

just letting you guys know that although you don't me that well my all-round knowledge of test match cricket is greater than anybody elsehere. i literally know every series result of the last 15 years off by heart, and can you tell stuff about any player who has played, also my knowledge of the intricacies and skill sets of this sport is 2nd to none. most of the other english fans here are especially clueless and casual and only know about le ashes

I was feeling pretty average tonight, not for any reason in particular, just feelin' blue. Anyway, I felt like watching the cricket but of course Australian pay-TV won't work in New Zealand (I'm on holiday over here). I jump onto /r/cricket and within two minutes I've got a link to a stream of the Test match, some quality banter from people all over the world, and to top it all off, a video of a very attractive lady falling down during the Ashes last year - seeing Joe Root, David Warner, the crowd, and the woman herself having a giggle instantly put a smile on my face and now I'm sitting here eating bagel crisps in my hotel room and watching this great game that I love.

Doubt it, his average has already taken a beating over the last couple of years. He'd have to be averaging like 70 for the next 100 tests. Will probably end up averaging around 51-52.
He's in a for a decent chance of beating Tendulkar's ODI 100 record though.

amir is a far better bowler than starc is, and just a much cricket all-round. starc averaged over 30 over 5 tests last time he bowled in england, for a fast bowler that's shit, amir will average far better than that this summer and will have a far better career overall

>>68241373
Amir is ridiculously good at working batsmen over consistently as well. Starc is talented but only recently learnt how to set up a batsman. Half the time he doesn't know what he's doing.
It says a lot that for all the privileges of a first world education, upbringing and infrastructure, an illiterate Paki villager is still the smarter cricketer.

My favourite part is the fact that he undeniably has a massive superiority complex, and simultaneously spent all of last year telling Daniel he needs to drop his. Every one of his posts is fucking laced with "I know better than you because I am old and wise and so patrician", from the cricket posts to the comments about how much money he's making in bets to this fucking dire "music" "discussion" thread. It's like he just sits here patting himself on the back. I wouldn't be surprised if he's making half of it up. It's like Reality Check, but without the hilarious ironic absurdity.

anyway this would be the actual one:
Hafeez
Ali
Ahmed
Y.Khan
Ul-Haq
Rizwan
Sarfraz (wk)
J.Khan
Amir
Shah
I.khan
And Riaz is known for being erratic and leaks too many in tests
reminder that cook averages more runs in sri lanka, australia, india and the UAE than at home and is one of the few awaybabbies in cricket
>>68240704
based fucking Rasheed
Looking forward to the Paki diaspora during the Eng/Pak series
>>68242142
Shafiq over Rizwan, Wahab Riaz over Junaid Khan. Junaid sucks balls since his last injury.
>>68242144
if you're averaging over 35 as an opener in England you're doing well tbf
>>68241959
>>68242142
Where the FUCK is Shafiq? I rate that lad
>>68242156
Will Moeen get booed?
>>68242156
>looking forward to that
I fucking despise it, I remember the 't. British Indian' posting in every t20 world cup match drivel about england, made me seething. I used to spam the 'hello you appear to be using a tripcode' pasta at him loads, I despise people who go against the sports team of the country their born in. nearly got in a fight during 2012 india tour with an indian at headingley who wouldn't stop screaming ENGLAND BAD INDIA BEST DHONI DHONI DHONI
>>68242172
Most likely. If Dobell couldn't handle the Indian bants he'll literally kill himself when he hears the Pakistani fans ripping into him.
The Paki crowd in Bongland is absolutely mental.
>>68242167
Opening in England is just a measure of autism. See: Chris Rogers
It's also why Warner should have batted in the mid-order. But he got the hang of it by the end. Kind of inconvenient he didn't open in the 2013 Series because of muh exile and then Watson/Rogers opening, experience would have done him good
>>68242142
ASAD SHAFIQ IS PAK'S BEST PLAYER AFTER THE OLD MEN AND J.KHAN ISN'T SELECTED YOU CASUAL FUCK
>>68242122
Top 3 in 1st division county for last 2 years. Probably won't get picked given that he's only been a batsman for like 3 years. He has 3 or 4 centuries that involve him carrying his bat from #3 through massive middle order collapses.
>>68242175
I used to play with a lad who had never left Australia in his life, and was a hardcore India supporter. Made me seethe.
He just posts image macros about Yuvraj on Facebook

Warner's a gun. Next time he plays in England he should be able to demolish them.
>>68242222
>seething over indian players
literally krazypaki
>>68242193
>Probably won't get picked given that he's only been a batsman for like 3 years
Didn't stop them picking Moeen as a spinner kek.
let's play owzthat
>>68242122
he's really good, started scoring big hundreds at durham consistently. if you want to evaluate a player based purely on runs add around 300 extra to their season total for durham and 100 for yorkshire, subtract 100 from some meme counties like somerset with their tiny flat ground and you should get a good rough idea of who is where
>>68242223
Warner is outrageously talented but he has to restrict his "natural" game so much opening in England he is basically wasted. I'd much rather Watson, who has experience and reasonable success of opening in England, have partnered Rogers. I said that before the series aswell.
I'm still seething how Watsons career was ended by the Fox Sports Facebook page
>>68242232
Not me
genuinely impressed with Bairstow tbqh
He's lifted his game after the UAE and is showing good versatility in shots and strike rate
>>68242167
>>68242172
>>68242188
I picked Rizwan because he scores runs quicker than Shafiq, nowadays you need some firepower down the order
and even if J'Khan isn't in the squad I would pick Rahat ali anyway, Wahab isn't a test bowler
>>68242261
>add around 300 extra to their season total for durham
I take it I get zero points for guessing you are a Durham lad?
Wahab still being shit is baffling
There's obvious problems in stability when he releases the ball, but he had made no effort to changes his action
>>68242270
>I picked Rizwan because he scores runs quicker than Shafiq, nowadays you need some firepower down the order
What the fuck man. Shafiq is gun and you're dropping him for some meme slogger?
>>>/ipl/
>>68242270
shafiq should still defo be in the team
>>68242276
Yorkshire, sorry lad. It's well acknowledged that durham isn't easy to score at, and I went up to watch a game a few years ago and onions commited crimes against our batting line up on a wicket which was doing tons so that probably makes me biased tho
>>68242287
He is a Mitchell Johnson-tier enigma
The difference is that he didn't have Lillee to fix him
>>68242262
I really think Warner has mastered the art of opening as of late. Granted we bowled a lot of trash to him but in the last summer he was literally unstoppable. There are practically zero weaknesses in his game now that Rogers is gone and the onus is on him to dig in and set up the innings.
Watson gets a lot of hate from casuals but he really was past it in the last Ashes. His confidence was shot to bits for a good year or so and the LBW meme had gone so far it wasn't even funny.
>>68242265
Bit peeved I can't keep posting the Bitchwide webm now that he's good desu.
>>68242270
Rahat Ali would be useful in England since he's a swing bowler.
I think it's worth picking Wahab if you're playing at Edgbaston given his pace. There was that one golden spell against England last year where he basically turned the match around by himself.
Cook
Hales
Root
Bairstow
Ballance
Stokes
Buttler
Ali
Broad
Wood
Anderson
>>68242331
I'd put mo above buttler tttt
>>68242311
>There are practically zero weaknesses in his game now
spin, he has improved but I still don't trust him
>>68242311
>Watson gets a lot of hate from casuals but he really was past it in the last Ashes
He still had something to offer with bat. Clarke was far more broken
>>68242331
>Fales
Finch-tier, Guptill-tier
you know the drill
>>68242349
I wouldn't
He bats better at lower positions
>>68242349
yeah good point tbf
I'm not sure Swattler has even done enough to justify being picked but they seem pretty clear on acknowledging that no keeper in England exists apart from Bairstow and Buttler.
>>68242311
>watson
you're right a lot of people didn't rate him but he was actually a top batsman. the problems he had seemed to be more in his head than anything unfortunately, around 11-12 he was one of the more consistent openers in world cricket he just never made big scores, racked up tons of 50's tho
>>68242331
>ballance
just no, he's probably not coming back for another year at least he's not scoring runs batting #5 for >us
>>68242364
Have you even been watching this series? Sure the bowling hasn't been that great but Hales has been fine. Nothing worth dropping
>>68242365
>155* literally last week at 7
What the fuck has Buttler ever done?
>>68242367
Possibly if he's brought in as a specialist keeper and memeslogger he'll do better because no pressure?
>>68242294
>slogger
confirmed for not seeing rizwan play ever, he uses controlled aggression in his batting
>>68242303
It was a close run thing, either could fit the role really
>>68242311
I get that but Wahab is one-dimensional in that sense, Ali would be a better fit tbqhwy
>>68242364
Hales has done more than the majority of England this series. There is the argument for him batting at 3 and getting an opener in to replace Compton
>>68242373
Posted what is likely to be the XI because England's selectors fucking suck.
>all these (You)s
>>68242381
I didn't actually read your post and just saw something about moving Moeen up, which I assumed meant middle order
7 is where I'd play him
>>68242381
If you're bringing in a specialist keeper might as well have the best keeper in the country. I don't think Buttler is that person.
>>68242388
>rizwan over asad
no
>>68242381
>Sure the bowling hasn't been that great
You identified the problem in your own post
He was ruthlessly exposed by good bowling, just as I said he would be.
Playing the "bowling" of Nuwan Pradeep and Angelo Mathews is as relevant as Voges statpadding in Poorth.
>>68242392
Yeah, move Hales down and bring back based Lyth
>>68242408
Buttler is a guy who should be a good test batsman, so I see no harm in keeping him in the test side for when he eventually comes good. After all, he's not dropping any catches or anything.
hales will last 3 balls max against amir
>>68242416
Not him, but the point is to give the guy a fair go on his home turf, which he hasn't had yet. Besides it's not like any other opener is banging down the doors either.
You never know, he might be the exception to the rule. And for all the Cucktill comparisons, he's shown more determination than that useless lanklet faggot ever did.
>>68242437
amir could dismiss lyth blindfolded

Season 3 onwards killed it tbqh
Almost every single plot thread right now is the dumbest shit I've ever seen
>>68242856
It's just fanfic now because there is no more source material.
Their problem was, they didn't want to diversify the show to the extent the books did. So they just cut a whole bunch of characters and gave their plots to other characters. So now logically and canonically there are major problems with almost every single plot they have. Like CIA just handing Sansa over to Ramsey (because they gave her Jeyne Poole's plot for something to do). I mean what the fuck was that?
What they should have done is just owned the fact the show is different from the books. Now it's just a shitty imitation with plot holes, teleportation and fart jokes left right and centre.

Stuart Broad. Never forget.
>>68242938
50% is essentially an arbitrary figure anyway, when you think about it. inb4 because it's half the ball her derr that isn't justifcation
it's actually a really dumb ruling with a seemingly low level of thought behind it, hitting the stumps should just be out, especially when you consider there is an overrule when the ball is just missing the stumps
>>68242987
Umpire's call is a fair rule. The technology simply isn't completely accurate. But like >>68242960 says, you shouldn't lose a review for it.
Way too many people shit on India for not using DRS but it's clear that it's a faulty system. A lot more work needs to be done to improve it.
<40%=umpires call
40%-50%=umpires call, but you don't lose a review
>>68243016
No it isn't. Hawkeye isnt perfect but it is more accurate than the human eye.
There is literally no reason to have a system which is designed to uphold the onfield umpires decision than muh tradition. It is Brendon McCuckum-tier logic.
The DRS as is isn't designed to get accurate decisions, it is designed to protect umpires. That's why India dont want to use it and fair enough. I hate it as it currently is used atleast when it comes to lbw's
>>68243016
no it isn't, it's dumb, why 50% why not 25?
also why is there an overrule when the ball IS just missing the stumps when the batsman is giving out, bearing in mind 'drs isn't accurate'? should be umpires call no?
>>68243023
it's fine apart from the LBW application of it, fix it somehow and it will be perfectly fine
>49.98%
oh wow
>>68243023
The technology is fine, the problem is the people using it and the threshold of evidence required to make a decision.
I've heard Ashwin, Dhoni and Kohli all say that and I agree with them.
>>68243074
>remove arbitrary 50% bullshit completely
problem solved
>>68243074
>>68243103
I agree that it should be used but there's no denying that it's not a perfect system. I can understand why BCCI don't want to use it.

>but its still more reliable than the human eye
If it isn't 100% reliable you can't blame some people for wanting to using it.
I'm all for it but all I said was that way too many people give shit to BCCI thinking that DRS is a magical solution to all uncertain calls.
>>68243183

Dhoni suddenly hates him and it's so apparent. He bowled less than some literal who's in the IPL this year.

he wasn't THAT bad in australia though. off-spinners never do well there. he's done a lot more than lyon has overall.
>>68243371
And he got belted when he did bowl here. I think he went for eight an over during his overs in middle stages of the WACA game from memory.
Dhoni is fucking retarded with him though, I'll agree there.
