Apropos to nothing, but for some reason I really dislike Jimmy Anderson.
Not sure why.
Whereas I’m a big fan. Have always liked him.
I can’t stand Steve Smith.
I like Jimmy and I like Smith as Smith fascinates me how he can move around like that and then be so still and complete before he makes a shot.
I can watch him bat all day. (Same with Warner but I don't like Warner)

@dogmeat i resent Anderson being described as a "fast bowler"
But if you want to show kids about perfect seam position and wrist position at the point of release, show them Jimmy Anderson. His technique is textbook.

@mariner4life Fair points. All of them.

Labuschagne leapfrogs Smith on ICC batting rankings | cricket.com.au
Marnus Labuschagne has claimed bragging rights over Steve Smith after overtaking the vice-captain on…
Bugger, KW is plummeting!!!
Australia with four in the top 10, England with one in the top 20.
They both look incredibly special needs for a pair of guys who average 120 between them

@mn5 it was the hottest place in NZ the other day I saw
It’s always the hottest place in New Zealand, just not temperature wise.
Gaaaaaaaaaaaay

Not taking anything away from Labuschagne (except about 20 off his average), but Jeez he seems to be a fucking lucky fluffybunny!
Third big life in this innings - and I recall we gifted him a heap last time we were over there!
No real damage done. Labbers gone LBW. First LBW this series?

Finally the guy with the punchable face is out.
Question - if the fielding team reviews and it turns out to be a no ball, do they lose a review?

@crazy-horse surely

That is a good question. I think they would keep it based on the fact the front-foot tech is in play and it should have been called.

That's what I think should happen too. It would be unfair otherwise in my opinion.
