0ਇੰਗਲਡ ਗੁਆਉਣ ਗਤੀ?

ਇਸ ਲਈ, ਦੇ ਰੂਪ ਵਿੱਚ ਇੱਕ, ਮੈਸਿਡੋਨਿਆ, ਦੇ ਵੱਲ ਆਖ਼ਰੀ ਪਰੀਖਿਆ ਸਿਰ ਭਿੱਜ ਖਿੱਚਣ ਪੰਡਿਤ ਨੂੰ ਕੁਝ ਦੇ ਬਾਰੇ ਦਲੀਲਬਾਜ਼ੀ ਕਰਨ ਲਈ ਖੋਜ ਕਰ ਰਹੇ ਹਨ. ਉਹ ਅੰਤ DRS ਸਿਸਟਮ 'ਤੇ ਸਫੇ ਨੂੰ ਲੈ ਕੇ ਦੇ ਬੋਰ ਮਿਲੀ ਹੈ ਜਾਪਦਾ ਹੈ, ਅਤੇ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਇੱਕ ਟੀਮ ਲੜਕੇ ਜਦ ਉਹ ਹੋ ਕ੍ਰਿਕਟ ਨਹੀ ਹੈ (i.e. ਆਸਟਰੇਲੀਆ) ਇਸ ਲਈ ਲਾਜ਼ਮੀ ਤੌਰ 'ਤੇ ਧਿਆਨ ਇੰਗਲੈਂਡ ਵੱਲ ਗਿਆ ਹੈ. ਅਜਿਹਾ ਲਗਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਸੀਰੀਜ਼ 3-0 ਨਾਲ ਜਿੱਤੀ (ਜਿਵੇਂ ਕਿ ਲਗਭਗ 30 ਘੰਟਿਆਂ ਦੇ ਸਮੇਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਬਿਨਾਂ ਸ਼ੱਕ ਪੁਸ਼ਟੀ ਕੀਤੀ ਜਾਏਗੀ) ਅਤੇ ਜਿੱਤਣਾ 3 ਟ੍ਰੌਟ 'ਤੇ ਐਸ਼ੇਜ਼ ਸੀਰੀਜ਼ ਇਸ ਗੱਲ ਦਾ ਸੰਕੇਤ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਇੰਗਲੈਂਡ' ਤੇਜ਼ੀ ਨਾਲ ਹਾਰ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ. ਕੀ ਬਕਵਾਸ ਹੈ.

The primary reas­on for all the neg­at­iv­ity is the pace of England’s scor­ing in the 5^th test — at an “unac­cept­able” 2 per over. Pre­dict­ably the pun­dits haven’t actu­ally said what Eng­land should be doing!  Per­haps we should be aim­ing for 3.5 runs per over and end­ing up all out with time for the Aus­sies to win, although it would seem to me that really would be hand­ing the momentum to Aus­tralia. On the con­trary — Eng­land are doing exactly what many of the pun­dits have been call­ing for them to do for ages — play­ing the pitch, con­di­tions and bowl­ing that is presen­ted to them. When the poor ball came it was dis­patched. What the pun­dits aren’t being hon­est enough to say clearly is that Eng­land are play­ing for a draw. Why would they do that?  ਨਾਲ ਨਾਲ, per­haps because on a slow pitch, with lots of rain fore­cast, and with the oppos­i­tion hav­ing nearly 500 on the board after 2 days, win­ning is van­ish­ingly likely.Could Eng­land have won?Assuming the fore­cast is cor­rect and most of today will be lost to rain, how might Eng­land have won the match?  Let’s very optim­ist­ic­ally assume we could bowl the Aus­trali­ans out in 2 ses­sions. Assum­ing the Aus­sies scored at 3 an over they would be expec­ted to make 180 in those 2 ses­sions. Add that to their first innings of 492 gives a total for Eng­land to get of 672. Nev­er­mind that Eng­land haven’t reached 400 yet in this series — how long would be needed to get 672 at a very gen­er­ous 4 ਪ੍ਰਤੀ ਓਵਰ ਰਨ?  The answer — 168 overs. So, that would be the 18 ਦਿਨ ਓਵਰ 2, ਸਾਰੇ 90 overs yes­ter­day, 30 ਓਵਰ ਅੱਜ (the best we can hope for accord­ing to the weath­er) and 30 ਓਵਰ tomorrow.So, if you believe the Eng­land could bat over 4 days, ਲਈ 168 ਓਵਰ, 'ਤੇ 4 ਪ੍ਰਤੀ ਓਵਰ ਰਨ, and then bowl Aus­tralia out for 180 in 60 ਓਵਰ, you can con­clude Eng­land had a chance of win­ning. Oth­er­wise (like me) you can con­fid­ently con­clude Eng­land did­n’t have enough time in the match to secure vic­tory and that the most sens­ible thing to do was to pre­vent Aus­tralia tak­ing any­thing away from the series, and to take the oppor­tun­ity for the Eng­land bats­men to try to bat them­selves into some form.
An addi­tion­al bonus for Eng­land is that after 1 decent innings togeth­er Aus­tralia now feel like they have a settled bat­ting line up:  a line up that does­n’t con­vince me at all. Steve Smith isn’t good enough to get into any good test side. Shane Wat­son has once again delivered when it does­n’t mat­ter and con­tin­ues to look very vul­ner­able to ਐੱਲ.ਬੀ.ਡਬਲਯੂ.  Michael Clarke is still a class bats­man but Eng­land have got his num­ber — he struggles against Stu­art Broad and the short ball in par­tic­u­lar and he has­n’t even had a chance to face Trem­lett who is likely to fea­ture in the return series. Rogers is a decent play­er but I can­’t see him mak­ing many “game chan­ging” scores which leaves the incid­ent prone Warner who is again a decent bats­man but thanks to his style he tends to give chances. Rogers & Warner does­n’t exactly have the same ring as Hay­den & Langer does itWhen all is said and done this Eng­land side have beaten bet­ter Aus­trali­an teams already and have bats­men due back into form. Eng­land are rightly send­ing a mes­sage to Aus­tralia — give us half a chance and we’ll beat you. Play really well and we’re strong enough to hold you off. Go home with noth­ing from this series and look for­ward to see­ing us again in 3 ਮਹੀਨੇ.
