Clarke Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 25 minutes ago, Norman said: So a completely different fast bowling attack from the 1st Test ? And what bio-security protocol did Archer breach ? Jofra Archer has been dropped from the second Test against West Indies and severely reprimanded after breaching England’s biosecure protocols by stopping off at his flat in Hove during the journey from Southampton to Old Trafford. England’s players travelled up to Manchester on Monday in separate cars following their four-wicket defeat at Hampshire’s Rose Bowl and were told there must be no breaks in the 230-mile journey bar the use of a designated biosecure county ground for lunch and pre-approved petrol stations. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2020/jul/16/jofra-archer-excluded-by-england-for-breach-of-bio-secure-protocols-west-indies-second-test Norman 1 Link to comment

New guy Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Wood and Anderson are rested, not drooped. Archer went home on monday and this was discovered yesterday. Ideally anyone in contact with Archer since Monday should be isolated but that means end of series Link to comment

Ideally anyone in contact with Archer since Monday should be isolated but that means end of series I don't think it works like that. They'll have to test archer and only if he tests positive should the others be kept isolated. Correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment

maniac Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 WI line up looks more balanced than India’s 3 fast bowlers, 1 bowling allrounder who can hit test 100’s and a batting allrounder/spinner who picks up 5frs. They would need Atleast 1 world beating batsmen in Lara’s league to hold the batting together and they will be a serious force. Suhaan 1 Link to comment

Saying that, as much as it's good to have cricket back, it's sad to see it empty. Last time I was there it was full with people at the ashes test Norman 1 Link to comment
