Good for ODI, but not for test cricket.

It's what we've requested. Flat pitches. I've no idea why, but there you go.

So, 371 to win. Doable in a flat pitch with plenty of time remaining. With sensible batting.

We're not sensible, though.

OK. 371 to win in 4 sessions.
Let's put the hook shot away and wear their bowlers down.

Even if our run rate is too low, we could get a draw if we minimise risk.

Then it's still only 0-1 with 3 tests to play.

I don't know why I bothered typing all that. We all know what's going to happen.

Another failure for Crawley. But it won't matter he'll still be selected next test.

I think that’s Crawley done now he just doesn’t learn.

Unlikely when his dad's mate is part of the selection process. He's not going anywhere, unfortunately.

You'd have thought he was done last year but here we are.

If the ECB want to deal with the criticism of the boys club and favouritism to upper class, privately educated players with well connected parents, fuck Crawley off. He's barely shown himself to be a good county cricketer.
