It's great but pretty overrated ttttt (to tell the truth though)
Brayden Bailey
overrated? really? it was a corker of a delivery
Benjamin Young
To give an example of the precision needed in cricket, this is often cited as one of the best balls of the last few years. It's a bit hard to see why from that footage but basically
>height The position that he bounces it is perfect. It bounces just just just high enough to hit the top of the wickets (to get him out). Bounce any shorter and it's an easy shot to take a mighty swing at. You try swinging at a ball at that height and you're probably going to hit it straight in the air.
>line He's bowling it at the stumps, but it's in the perfect line so that Cook (batsman) HAS to play it, he can't leave it alone, because he knows it could bowl him (which it did, but that's for another reason). If it was any wider he would have just ignored it, any straighter and it would have been an easy block.
>deviation Harris is not bowling that fast. Cook is one of the best batsmen in the world. It's around 85mph at a guess. Cook isn't fazed by that. but if you look at where it bounces, Harris gets it to land on the seam perfectly, and just that tiny bit of movement from the seam gripping more moves the ball to the right straight past Cook's bat and bowls him. It's not about the power of his bowling or doing it really quickly, it's about precision. Nor is batting about power, Cook would normally just wait it out until the bowler bowls one that is easier for him to hit, it's about patience and timing.
So to do that, Harris has to not only land the ball in a spot about the size of the ball itself, but he has to land it on a particular part of the ball (the seam) and get it to move slightly to the right (not left, that wouldn't get him shit against a left handed batsman at that angle). THAT is the precision required to get guys out.
Best part about that ball?
It was the first fucking ball of the game.
Jackson Lee
this was the greatest summer of all time
OF ALL TIME
>you will never relive it
Asher Bennett
So many people treat it as the best of all time or something I mean it's good but overrated too.
i cant wait for the euro to be over and the Sup Forums posters/tourists to fuck off where they came from. i actually dont mind that this thread always is on autosage. Its a good thing. It attracts less retards
Adam Sanchez

Hunter Lee
>2 (two) handball penalties JUST
Brayden Gray
someone should've told them that using your hands isn't aloud
Anthony Hernandez
>aloud
Kevin Smith
it was literally unplayable. when it's swinging and seaming like there's not a lot you can do and you just gotta hope you don't get something like that
Levi Bailey
/tdf/ is also nice
Levi Hughes

Ryder Wood

it doesn't really matter who the england manager is as long as the fa doesn't take a hard look at their youth works and changes it imho
Benjamin Sullivan
It was worse pre-flags, Australians would constantly shit up threads and the boards with Europe vs America crap. Flags aren't ideal but are better than what we had before.
William Garcia

Alexander King
It's a practice match, so it's probably just to give Pakistan some more practice. Tomorrow is the last day.
Isaiah Hernandez
but wouldn't trying to actually win the match be better practice for pakistan?
Landon Ward
It's mostly to just get used to the foreign conditions in England. And if Sussex kept playing on there wouldn't be a result in this match.
Jordan Sullivan
>there wouldn't be a result in this match which doesn't really matter in a practice match
Daniel Hughes
Yeah I know but I only said that in respons to this >trying to actually win the match be better practice for pakistan >trying to actually win
