Cricket: International Discussion Thread

Just enough time for Kohli to get Pujara run out. What a selfish swine!
 
4.03pm The Lord's outfield continues to take a pounding, and that means we have ourselves a tea break.
 
Woakes giving the slippers a good rev over the missed catch ... induces Sofdick into another edge next ball. 61/5 and the Indians are up against the wall. No Kohli to bale them out this time.
 
Sam Curran strikes with beautiful swing bowling. Made Karthik look rather ordinary. 62/6.
 
96/8.

Anderson to Kuldeep Yadav, OUT, looks close and given. Trapped plumb in front by an inswinger. Kuldeep reviews but this is gone. Pitches on middle and off and straightens down that channel to hit him dead in front. No bat on the flick and crashing into the inside half of middle stump
Kuldeep Yadav lbw b Anderson 0 (11b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

What a pathetic review. Aleem Dar seldom makes a mistake. That one could have been called from square leg.
 
107 all out inside 36 overs. Top score 29 from Ashwin.

Poms bowled beautifully to the conditions. Full length and allowed the balled to swing.
 
Hammered! Woeful! Inept batting performance! Slash your wrists if you are a supporter result!

Could be said for South Africa too ^^
 
Your batting performance is pure swill if your No. 8 top scores in both innings!!!
 
Ben Stokes found not guilty

Jury finds Ben Stokes not guilty of affray

After a week of court proceedings, Ben Stokes has been found not guilty of affray, by the jury, unanimously. The England all-rounder had been arrested on the suspicion of causing actual bodily harm and charged with affray following an incident outside a nightclub named Mbargo in Bristol last September, which left one man in the hospital.
