India vs. England: Can England Bounce Back?

Last time we spoke about this test match series, it was looking at England‘s miracle comeback to win in Hyderabad to lead the series 1-0. Since then, things haven’t gone the way of England, and ahead of the fourth test this coming Friday England now find themselves 2-1 down, including a loss by 434 runs in the third – the biggest in terms of number of runs in 90 years. Given India’s dominance in the last two matches (and to an extent the first match too), is there a way... Read More

Ton Up: Ben Stokes’ 100th Test Match

On Thursday, Ben Stokes will reach his 100th test match when he leads England out for the third test against India. While Stokes himself isn’t too fussed about the milestone, calling it “just a number” – what an impact he’s made in the previous 99 he’s had. It was in just his second match against Australia in which he hit his first century for England, and he holds the record for most sixes hit in test match cricket – an incredible 128 of them! He also put in legendary performances... Read More

Tougher Than Your Average Footballer!

We’re not one to throw shade on another sport (especially when we showed love to others literally yesterday), but… it is a bit silly when footballers throw themselves to the ground writhing in agony from the slightest tap in a tackle, right? Step up cricket players – and let’s be honest, there’s a reason they need the protective gear! Cricket’s a brilliant game but it does still come with its dangers – the ball, after all, is rather hefty in weight and can cause some damage if not careful (how... Read More

The Heist of Hyderabad: England’s Legendary Comeback!

There’s test match wins, and then there’s test match WINS. If you’ve somehow been living under a rock over the last few days, this weekend saw an incredible performance by England in their first test against India – overturning a 190 run deficit after the first innings to win by 28. England had only come back from such a deficit just twice before in their entire history, and India had never lost a test match previously when leading by at least 100 runs after the first innings. To make it... Read More

Giving the Aussies a Hell of a Beating: New Designs In Store!

The Ashes 2015 is over, with England winning the Ashes back 3-2. While the overall score looks rather balanced, it’s safe to say the margin of victories have been… well, absolutely dominant. Which got us wondering… especially watching that fourth test which will surely become historic over time, what would the Australian legends have thought of it? Dennis Lillee, Shane Warne, Ricky Ponting and many more… your boys took a hell of a beating! It’s another 2015 Ashes design to give England fans something to smile about – and whether... Read More

The Ashes 2015: The Day Pomicide Was Committed

August 6th, 2015. A date, probably second only to August 8th, 2015, that England Cricket fans won’t forget for a long time from this year. While England regained that Ashes on the 8th, it was the first day of the fourth test that will go down in history for an unbelievable day of cricket. Stuart Broad took his 300th test match wicket… then his 301st, 302nd, 303rd, 304th, 305th, 306th AND 307th in the very same innings – not just that, but equaled the fastest test five-wicket haul, eventually taking...
