I witnessed the the most expensive over in Test cricket. Bumrah smashed 3 fours and 2 sises in the over which went - 4, 5w, 7nb, 4,4,4,6,1. Sloppy fielding, crazy bowling and a swinging batsman served to deliver this extraordinary 8 ball over. Bonkers and hugely entertaining :clap:

I’d just got out the shower and popped the tele on to witness this, not sure if I’d have been smiling if I was Stuart Broad.

YCCC play at Leicester Foxes this afternoon where a win will see them in to the Blast quarter finals which is pretty pointless really because if we qualify we will be without Root, Bairstow, Malan, Willey, Rashid, Brook & Shadab. The ECB have arranged an ODI at the same time as the quarters & have said no England players will be available. Yet when the h*n*r*d is due to be played there are no England fixtures :roll:

It’s like teams like Yorkshire are penalised for providing players for the various England teams. I really struggle to get my head around it. The better players you produce the less chance you have of winning any silverware. Meanwhile England take on meaningless friendlies like against the Netherlands last week. If ever an organisation was money driven it’s the ECB.

Meanwhile England continue to struggle in the current Test vs India.

Sorry, sleep.

But here's a titbit I did pick up. Why are test matches so called ? No googling (is that a pun?)
