    Check out cricketweb They are fuming still about a declaration and bazball It’s imo aimed at getting the youth in the uk engaged as they are not currently and cricket will end at test level in the uk if they are not inspired It’s aimed at youngsters and an old sweat like me can be outraged...

    Excellent post. I think the declaration point is covering up for some horrendous wicket keeping , other fielding and broad taking Khawaja with a no ball even though it’s been said that most thought the declaration was wrong, it did all come down to a miracle 9th wicket partnership to get...
