Okay. End of a day where Lancs won the toss on a medium green pitch. I'd say Nick Browne did a great job.

Me: What's the meaning behind the red in the logo?
Essex: We play for red ink.

Victoria in rebuild, but err, this may be a bit much lol:

(Fitzgerald is 14 and McGee is 16) Also 12 years old who is 180cm and weighs 81kgs, what the f**k is he eating and bench pressing lol?

All glory to Nick Browne...

It took this many balls for Adam Wheater to catch him...

But then in the over before lunch it happened...

What a man...

Might need to up the anty to make a 500 ball ton. Words I don’t think any one has ever muttered before.... 85 balls that’s at least a strike rate close to 70-80!

Jokes aside, your commitment is incredible, how on earth do you do it?!

Podcasts, a beer and not really paying attention...

Chasing 275 on a dusty Indian wicket, SA were left reeling at 87/6--until Klusener and Boucher happened.
This was my highest ODI partnership batting between hard and hardest against legend AI with 100 bowl quality.

Mission accomplished...

I’m sure it’ll delight you to know (if indeed you didn’t already) that this fifty took precisely two minutes longer than the slowest ever real first-class hundred. Top work.

On a dry hard wicket, SA were very much cruising towards their target of 297 despite a few middle-over hiccups. Pollock came to the crease when 80 were required with 4 wickets remaining, so he simply kept rotating the strike. However, with Rhodes getting run out, he was left with the likes of Donald, de Villiers, and Adams. Fortunately for SA, Pollock took complete responsibility for scoring the remaining runs while simultaneously ensuring that the other batsmen did not have to face too many deliveries, especially from the spinners Murali and de Silva. Ultimately, he took 45 of the last 50 required runs that included two huge sixes over cover/extra cover off de Silva. In the end, SA reached their target with 4 overs and 1 wicket to spare.

Loved how things went according to the plan during the last few overs of my innings. I’ve been enjoying these ODIs with 90s ODI rules for powerplays, no-balls, bouncers, and reviews and different legend AI settings for pacers (timing 60, wicket chance 40) and spinners (timing 70, wicket chance 30) for dry hard wickets. Almost fully takes away the default advantage of bowling spinners.

If your world class seam bowlers are getting smashed just bring on your spinners. Any will do.



Markram would've had seven if it wasn't for Chris Morris and Marais Erasmus.

Spinners are just overpowered in this game for some reason. Grassy pitches offer more to them than a seamer with that lower bounce in LO games.

Australia just edging this I think:

Athers didn’t last too much longer then I see, need some lower order resistance and maybe get up to 175/200
