Re: The Cricket Thread
Root has made a century in the third test in the West Indies, shame its a little late as the series is basically over. England in a good position for the first time on this tour.
Owners come and go but Leeds United will be there forever, for the fans - keep Marching on Together.
Re: The Cricket Thread
Good end to a mixed series... The tests were nothing short of awful, 20 20's never looked in doubt and i think we made hard work of the 1 days at points with poor run management, especially the 2nd where we lost by about 18 runs(ish) taking too many singles rather than hit when we had wickets in hand.
Overall though, I think it's been good for the team and a good build-up for the World Cup/Ashes. The 1-day squad will have learnt that they aren't infallible, and hopefully the test team will stop throwing random openers, put jason roy in there and stick with it for it.

Back from Guildford after taking in a new ground, very nice little out ground it was, shame Monday was a total washout. Next stop another new ground in York next week.

Re: The Cricket Thread
Yep first time there’s been a game played in York for over a hundred years. A large crowd is expected from both Yorkshire & Warwickshire fans plus there’ll be plenty of “ ground listers “ it’s hoped that both Yorkshire & York are prepared.Selby White wrote:

Re: The Cricket Thread
Phil, are you having these stats emailed to you for when you wake up after a cricket game/match/rubber whatever it's called? Surely you don't actually stay awake the whole time?NottinghamWhite wrote:England chasing a modest 213 to win. Joe & Jonny opening #madeinyorkshire

Davy, better news from the golf in the US of A. Two NI golfers near the top.
I once played against Don Revie.
