England in the 90s

[Ed Smith]

Yay!! Got it! Thanks @wasteyouryouth finally got it working.

what’s that? Shut up. No YOU have work tomorrow.

It's fun to adult

 

[Ed Smith]

Ahh it's good to be home

 

[Wealey]

Ahh it's good to be home

I fins the spinners too effective on the grassy pitches.

To be fair I never know what’s going on with the pitches!

 

[Ed Smith]

I don't think I'll ever find Eddie Hemmings too effective, but I know what you mean

So we got totally smashed in the last test, by an innings.

West Indies took the series 3-2. (real life was 2-1).

I put it down to home sickness and wanting to get on the plane, but then I've been bundled out for 125 on a Trent Bridge Greentop in the first innings of the New Zealand series too!

Did I say a geeentop? Now I’m bowling I’m sure it’s a featherbed.

 

[Ed Smith]

Ain't that always the way

I’d like to say it’s flattened out after a Day...

but I do think it’s completely random!

Ah I won the toss. It's not a good one to lose.

I got my first ever edge to slip off a spinner, a stunning snaffle from Gooch.

Contrarian Umpire (No Tie!) John Hampshire shakes his head.

FML.

surely though for a man that loves his immersion that is bloody irritating..

Could you not possible wack up the correct edge decision slider so you keep the dodgy LBW’s but eliminate the not ours for the blatently down right obvious edges?

Goes both ways though. Sometimes the wrong decisions are part of the fun

Ah the way I look at it it’s all part of the fun... after all I made the bloody umpire so it’s my fault

shame they don’t seem to give edges out when they haven’t hit them, had a few now not given when hit. Had them go for me and against...
