[Cricket] India tour of England- Five Test Series, June & July 2025

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Oval tests are great. Not going the year but we normally do a day.i recommend the Black Dog pub near Vauxhall station. Busy but good beer, well run(quick service) and the food smells excellent. Though it is now also quite full with Taylor Swift fans oddly

Sounds like the perfect reason to avoid the place now.

Me and my oldest boy have tickets for the 4th day of Oval test. First time going to a test match, watch the game finish in 3 days now.

I’m going for days 3 and 4 at the Oval with my Dad. The first time I’ll have been to consecutive days of a test match - this’ll finish inside 2 days now!

Having done both, Oval tests are far better than Lord's tests, much better atmosphere

I take it they haven't picked the 14 year old who's been twatting runs for fun in the IPL?

Not this time!

Vaibhav Suryavanshi is touring with the U19s.

I'm a little unclear who is going to be bowling for us

I guess Woakes is in and Bashir? Probably Carse as well?

Is Atkinson injured?

Is Atkinson injured?

Yes. And for some reason Carse played in all the recent limited over games after just coming back from injury so imagine he won't play more than 2/3

I'm not a cricket fan AND I'm not waiting for The Hundred either.

Booooooo!

Archer, Woakes, Wood and Atkinson. A man can dream…

Archer, Woakes, Wood and Atkinson. A man can dream…

We might actually get Archer and Woakes together at some point this series, which if they're at something like their best would be a quality opening pair.

Wood won't be fit, but any of Atkinson, Carse or Tongue would be handy coming on first change.

Archer, Woakes, Wood and Atkinson. A man can dream…

Certainly nightmare fuel for any physio
